Exam L4M4 Topic 3 Question 260 Discussion

Actual exam question for CIPS's L4M4 exam
Question #: 260
Topic #: 3
Ji Yuan is a procurement manager who is looking for a new supplier to complete reactive maintenance activities throughout his property portfolio. The reactive maintenance will include an array of plumbing tasks as well as fixing electrical items. Suppliers therefore need to be extremely skilled and knowledgeable about a variety of tasks. Ji Yuan has done some initial research and doesn't believe that there are many suppliers who can complete this type of contract. What type of tender should he use?

Suggested Answer: C Vote an answer

Open tenders should be used when the buyer expects there to be little interest / fewer bids. The opportunity is advertised widely allowing any supplier that wishes to submit a bid the opportunity.
The other options limit the number of suppliers and Ji Yuan doesn't want to do that, because he risks getting no interest and no supplier.
