Which of the following are true statements about RFQ process? Select TWO that apply.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A, D

Request for quotations is often used when the only variable is price and the purchase value is under a financial threshold. This process is less formal than ITT. RFQ should be used in the following circumstances:

- Low-value, low-risk purchases

- When the specifications are sufficiently defined or the product/service is standardised

- Where the suppliers are pre-qualified

- Where there is a framework agreement which specifies the contract terms and conditions.

Wait, E seems off. Low value purchases can still use RFQs, right?

I think I read somewhere that RFQs are actually suitable for low-value purchases, so E might not be true.

I have a vague memory that RFQs can sometimes involve technical proposals, but I can't recall if that's a requirement. So I'm unsure about B.

I practiced a similar question where price was emphasized in RFQs, so I feel confident that D is correct.

I remember that the RFQ process is often used for specific suppliers, so I think A might be true. But I'm not entirely sure about the details.

This seems straightforward enough. I just need to plug the numbers into the formula and do the calculations. As long as I don't make any silly mistakes, I should be able to get the right answer.

I think the coefficient of variation is calculated as the standard deviation divided by the mean, but I need to double-check my notes for the exact steps we followed.

Okay, I think the key here is being able to fully restore the ACI fabric to its previous state after a reset. The setting that enables exporting all the necessary configuration parameters is the one I need to identify.
