CIPS Exam L4M6 Topic 8 Question 35 Discussion

Actual exam question for CIPS's L4M6 exam
Question #: 35
Topic #: 8
[All L4M6 Questions]

Philip is working with a supplier where the annual spend is low but the market risk is high. What portfolio analysis category would be appropriate?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The correct answer is 'Conduct regular audits'. This is explained on p.153. You wouldn't do an appraisal on a supplier in a partnership relationship as both parties are equal. Threatening a partner isn't good for the relationship and a damages clause would be used in a contractual relationship rather than a partnership.

D) Bottleneck, all the way. I mean, who doesn't love a good bottleneck? It's like the traffic jam of the procurement world.

Hmm, low spend but high market risk? Sounds like a job for the Leverage category to me. Gotta play those angles, right?

Strategic might be too risky for low spend, so leverage seems like the best option.

I'd go with D) Bottleneck. Gotta keep a tight grip on those high-risk suppliers, you know?

Maybe we should consider both A) Strategic and D) Bottleneck for a balanced approach.

Low spend but high market risk? That's a classic Bottleneck scenario if I ever saw one!
