A dedicated resource is a specialized asset or personnel allocated exclusively to a particular task, project, or purpose. These resources are committed solely to the designated activity, ensuring focused attention, optimal utilization, and efficient output. Dedicated resources can include physical assets like equipment, facilities, or software, as well as human resources such as employees, contractors, or teams.

In project management, dedicating resources often involves assigning specific individuals or teams to handle particular tasks or phases of a project. This allocation ensures that the necessary expertise and attention are directed towards achieving project goals within the defined timelines and budget constraints.
