Actual exam question for CIPS's L4M6 exam
Question #: 37
Topic #: 7
[All L4M6 Questions]

Phone Maker Incorporated is a manufacturer of mobile phones. It is considering investing in a partnership with its supplier of batteries and circuit boards as it wishes to produce new models of its phone more regularly. What is the main driver for Phone Maker Incorporated?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: B

The correct answer is 'Conduct regular audits'. This is explained on p.153. You wouldn't do an appraisal on a supplier in a partnership relationship as both parties are equal. Threatening a partner isn't good for the relationship and a damages clause would be used in a contractual relationship rather than a partnership.

I heard the new Phone Maker phones will have a built-in 'Upgrade Compulsion' feature. You'll feel the urge to buy a new one every six months, whether you need to or not!

Ooh, 'Cheaper costs' sounds like the way to go. Gotta keep those profit margins high, am I right? *wink wink*

Hmm, I'd guess the main driver is 'Reduced product life-cycles'. Phone makers are always trying to stay ahead of the competition with the latest and greatest models.
