CIPS L4M6 Exam - Topic 2 Question 30 Discussion

Actual exam question for CIPS's L4M6 exam
Question #: 30
Topic #: 2
[All L4M6 Questions]

Harry has just entered into a partnership with a key supplier. Although he is excited about the prospect, he thinks it's a good idea to set some goals and KPIs. Which of the following criteria should Harry use to decide if a KPI is appropriate?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: C

The correct answer is 'Sudden changes in the marketplace' -- this is a reason a buyer would be reactive. Reactive is when something happens to you and it forces you to act in a certain way. The other options would be strategic rather than reactive. P. 163

Wait, are we sure "difficult" is a good KPI? Seems risky!

I believe the best criteria for KPIs are that they should be measurable and relevant. So, option A seems to be the most appropriate choice here.

I think we practiced a question similar to this, and I recall "measurable" being a key term. Option D seems to fit, but I'm not confident about "significant."

I'm not entirely sure, but I feel like "time bound" is important for KPIs. That makes me lean towards option C, but I could be wrong.

I think the key is finding KPIs that are meaningful and can be tracked effectively. Option A seems to capture that best - measurable, achievable, and relevant to the partnership.

Tricky one. I'm tempted to say option C, since the KPIs should be time-bound. But I'm not sure "difficult" is the right criteria - they need to be challenging but still achievable.

Ah, I see. The question is asking about the appropriate criteria for setting KPIs, not just general partnership goals. I'd go with option A - measurable, achievable, and relevant.

Okay, let me think this through. I know the KPIs need to be quantifiable, but I'm not sure if "relatable" is the right term here. I'll have to double-check the definitions.

The column names and number of columns can be different, right? I'm pretty sure that's what option B and D are saying.

I think this is asking about the file that contains the allowed hosts and services for a TCP Wrapper program. I'm pretty sure the answer is A, etchostsallow.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to think carefully about which methods are actually used for risk identification versus other business processes.
