A and D seem like the least likely to add value.

Standardisation of components usually leads to cost savings, so I doubt that would be the answer either. I feel like the social events and late bids are more likely to be the culprits here.

I'm a bit confused about accepting a late bid. It seems like it could lead to better options, but I guess it might not always be the case?

I remember a practice question where we discussed value analysis and how it typically helps in improving value for money, so I think that one is definitely not the answer.

I think attending social events at the supplier's expense might not really add value for money, but I'm not completely sure.

Attending social events and accepting a late bid - those are the two that stand out to me as unlikely to increase value. I'll go with those.

Value analysis and standardization are good ways to improve value, but I'm not sure about the other two options. I'll have to re-read the question and choices to decide.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to think through each option carefully to determine which two are unlikely to increase value.

This question seems straightforward, I'm pretty confident I can identify the two unlikely options to increase value for money.

Attending social events at supplier's expense? That's like getting a free lunch, but the catch is you have to listen to the supplier's sales pitch for an hour.

Standardisation of components is a no-brainer for increasing value for money. Variety is the spice of life, but not in procurement.

Standardisation of components is also important for increasing value for money. Accepting a late bid in a tender process would definitely not help.
