resource allocation

--feedback--

This two-word phrase means how something is shared or assigned.

--explanation--

Resource allocation means deciding how to divide and assign resources (like time, people, or tools) to different tasks or projects. For example:

  • Good resource allocation helps the team work faster. - If you share resources well, the team finishes tasks more quickly.

  • Poor resource allocation caused delays in the project. - The resources weren't shared properly, so the project was late.

You don't use an article before it because allocation is uncountable in this context and is part of a general concept.
