System selection involves all of the following except:

• A. The choice of the Project Manager.
• B. Determining which system, procedure, or product best answers the need.
• C. Aligning strategic goals with selection.
• D. Considering all vendor benefits based on observation, site visits, and/or RFP/RFI documentation.

System selection focuses on evaluating and choosing the option that best meets organizational needs, aligns with strategic goals, and is supported by thorough vendor evaluation. This includes determining which system or product will answer the need, ensuring its goals fit with overall strategy, and weighing vendor benefits through observations, site visits, and RFP/RFI documentation. Selecting the Project Manager, however, is about who leads and manages the project itself, which is governance and execution rather than the evaluation of system options. So the item that does not fit the system selection process is choosing the Project Manager.
