I’m pretty confident that warehouse and logistics come right after the contract is awarded, but I might mix up the rest.

This is a good question to test our knowledge of the procurement cycle. I'm feeling confident I can identify the four stages that happen after the contract award. Time to review my notes!

Okay, I think I've got this. The stages after the contract award are warehouse, logistics and receipt; contract performance review and continuous improvement; SRM/SCM and contract management; and asset management, lessons learned, end of life.

I'm a bit confused on this one. Can someone walk me through the procurement cycle stages again? I want to make sure I understand where the contract award fits in and what comes after.

Hmm, I'm leaning towards option C. Having HR add employees, review/submit hours, and deliver paychecks seems like it provides good checks and balances to prevent any one person from committing fraud.
