Suggested Answer: B, C

The correct answers are information sharing and trust. Further qualitative KPIs are listed on p.102. Deliveries in full and on time would be a quantitative KPI and early supplier involvement is not a KPI at all.

I'll go with B, C, and E. I mean, it's not like they're going to trick us with something like 'Underwater Basket Weaving' as a primary activity, right?

I'm not sure about this. I thought HR was a primary activity, but I guess it's considered a support activity. Let me double-check the definitions.
