    A team wants a technique for prioritizing different solutions, we should use:

    • A.

      Solution Prioritization Matrix

    • B.

      Cause and Effect Diagrams

    • C.

      Pareto Diagram

    • D.

      Relationship Matrix

    Correct Answer
    C. Pareto Diagram
    Explanation
    A Pareto Diagram is a useful technique for prioritizing different solutions. It helps identify the most significant factors contributing to a problem or goal by displaying them in descending order of importance. This allows the team to focus on the vital few factors that have the greatest impact and prioritize their efforts accordingly. Cause and Effect Diagrams and Relationship Matrix may help in understanding the root causes and interdependencies between factors, but they do not provide a direct prioritization mechanism like the Pareto Diagram does. Therefore, the Pareto Diagram is the most suitable technique for prioritizing different solutions.
