Committing time and deliverables might just overwhelm the team.

Contracting external resources sounds like a solid plan, but I wonder if it might complicate communication with the existing team.

Option C seems risky; I feel like we can't just ignore the engineers' input, but I can't recall a similar scenario from our practice questions.

I think committing team members' time could be effective, but what if production demands pull them away again?

I remember discussing the importance of a responsibility assignment matrix in class, but I'm not sure if it directly addresses the focus issue with the engineers.

Hmm, I think the key here is to focus on when the side-effects are most likely to appear. I'll need to review my notes on the stages of extinction to determine the best answer.

Hmm, let's see. Communities, Chatter Questions, and Public Knowledge all seem like they could be good options to reduce call volume by providing self-service resources. I'll need to consider how each one works.

I remember that if royalty costs go down, it might impact the prime cost, but I'm not entirely sure how that all links together.

Ah, I see the key here is that you selected "Manual" for the CSR step. That means you'll need to do some extra work to get the certificate installed on Apache. I think option D is the way to go.
