How would a buyer measure value for money from a relationship with a new supplier for goods?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

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 agree with Eloisa. It's important to consider both quality and cost when evaluating a new supplier.

D, quality and volume of goods, is a good consideration, but it's not the complete answer. We need to factor in the cost as well.

Option B, going for the lowest possible cost, is a common mistake. That doesn't capture the full picture of value.
