Which statement about coordination is true?

• A. It reduces the total project duration regardless of method
• B. It delays information sharing
• C. It increases the complexity of the project
• D. It increases efficiency

Answer: (D)

Coordination in projects means aligning people, tasks, and information so work flows without unnecessary delays. When coordination is effective, information is shared quickly, task interfaces are clear, and dependencies are managed, which reduces waste and idle time. That leads to greater efficiency, because resources are used more effectively and problems are addressed before they cause rework. It doesn’t guarantee a shorter overall duration in every case, and coordination isn’t about delaying information sharing or inherently increasing complexity; its purpose is to structure interactions to improve performance. So the true statement is that coordination increases efficiency.
