CPV codes help suppliers find opportunities they can bid for. CPV codes are a numerical classification for products e.g. Strawberry Jam is 15332296 and when they are included on a Tender, any supplier who is registered with that same CPV code will get a notification that the tender is live. CPV codes are discussed on p.72 but not in much detail- so don't worry if you don't know much about them. So long as you know the above, you'll be fine.

I vaguely remember that an amicable style is best when both parties want to preserve the relationship, but I’m not confident about the specific options.

Okay, I've got it! The correct answers are B and D. random.randint(5, 11) and random.randrange(5, 11, 1) will both generate a random integer between 5 and 11, inclusive. I feel confident about this one.

Ah, the age-old question of how to break up with your supplier in the most awkward yet polite way possible. I'd go with option D - it's the business world's version of 'it's not you, it's me.'
