Danny is procuring a new IT software, which he doesn't know much about. He has done a bit of research on the internet but is still unsure how much he can expect to pay. What should be Danny's next step?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Danny should issue a RFI (Request for Information). His next step would be to find out more about the products available by asking suppliers for information- this will help him put a spec together before he goes out to tender. The other options mean; RFQ - request for quotation- when you ask suppliers to submit a price. ITT- Invitation to tender -- a document you send out to suppliers which details all the information about the tender (this usually involves both price and quality components of assessment). OJEU- Official Journal of the European Union- where tenders for the Public Sector are published. For more info on RFI see p.74

OJEU? What even is that? Sounds complicated!

An ITT could be useful too, but RFQ seems more straightforward.

He should definitely issue a RFQ to get pricing info.

I’m leaning towards the RFQ too, but I wonder if he should start with an RFI to clarify his needs before asking for quotes.

I feel like issuing an ITT could be too advanced for Danny at this stage, but I can't recall the exact differences between them.

I remember practicing a question about procurement steps, and I think an RFI might be better for gathering more information first.

I think Danny should issue a RFQ since he needs specific pricing information, but I'm not entirely sure if that's the right step.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused by the concept of "average depth test" and how that relates to the pairwise testing. I'll need to review my notes on these testing techniques.

Okay, I've got this. The 25-hour limit is an enterprise environmental factor, which are external conditions that constrain the project. This is a clear example of a resource limitation.
