Question

18. Galaxy, a construction company, buys a particular brand of tiles manufactured by Tiles and Floors, an eco-friendly tile manufacturing company. However, Tiles and Floors has declared bankruptcy and closed down. At present, Galaxy is facing a crisis because there are no other manufacturers in the market that supplies eco-friendly tiles. Which constraint is Galaxy currently facing?

Answer 1

OPTIONS:

a. Resources

b. Time

c. Scope

d. Cost

Answer:

a. Resources

Explanation:

Business constraints are factors or any aspect of the business environment that limits the smooth running of a business. They serve as impediments to the actualization of business objectives and goals.  

The constraint faced currently by Galaxy is “resources”. The tiles they do procure from Tiles and Floors serve as one of the resources they need in their construction company. Since, the company supplying them these materials has been declared bankrupt and closed down, they are constrained by the unavailability of resources, which they need in their operations .
