Incoterms describe who out of the buer and seller; organises transport and what type of transport this is, who pays for insurance, and who organises duty / tariff arrangements when the goods go through customs. See p.131. Note- some students report a lot of questions on Incoterms in the exam, some say they only had 1. If you can, I'd learn them just to be safe.

Public sector procurement is governed by statutory regulations (such as EU Procurement Directives or UK Public Contracts Regulations) that impose minimum timescales for fairness, transparency, and supplier access. For example, open tendering requires a minimum response period to allow all interested suppliers to participate equally. While stakeholder involvement and debriefing are also features of public procurement, the defining reason for longer timelines is legal compliance. Private sector organisations, by contrast, can set flexible timelines based on complexity and urgency. Responsible sourcing in public procurement ensures equitable access and avoids supplier discrimination.
