Haha, yeah, no kidding. I bet the instructor is sitting back and enjoying watching us all debate this one. Maybe they'll give partial credit if we can justify our reasoning.

Ooh, good point. I hadn't considered that. It could go either way, I suppose. This exam is really testing our knowledge of procurement procedures.

Ah, I see what you mean. But what about option D? Couldn't it be the government agencies that set the policies and the CPO that oversees them?

Yeah, that's what I was thinking too. The CPO is the one who sets the standards and guidelines for procurement, not the individual agencies themselves.

Hmm, I think it might be option C. The Chief Procurement Officer (CPO) is typically responsible for establishing uniform policies and procedures across government agencies, right?

This is a tricky question. I'm not sure if I know the answer off the top of my my head. Let me think about this for a moment.
