NEW QUESTION # 244
What are the risks of outsourcing?
* Loss of control of a project
* Loss of assets
* Loss of future business opportunities
* Loss of private information
Answer: A
Explanation:
Outsourcing can create risks such as loss of control over a project (1) since operations are managed externally, and loss of private information (4) if data security and confidentiality are not managed effectively. Loss of assets (2) typically refers to internal asset disposal, not outsourcing. Loss of future business opportunities (3) is more linked to strategic misalignment, not a core outsourcing risk. Responsible sourcing emphasises that outsourcing should include robust governance, contractual protections, and supplier monitoring to manage risks of data leakage, reduced oversight, and potential ethical breaches.
Reference: CIPS L4M4 Study Guide (v2), LO: "Implications" - outsourcing risks and ethical considerations.
NEW QUESTION # 245
Why is it important to consider factors such as environmental, social, governance and ethics when analysing tender proposals from the market?
* To ensure adherence to sustainability initiatives
* To improve the process workflow
* To perform supplier spend and monitoring
* To identify potential risks within the supply chain
Answer: A
Explanation:
Incorporating Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) and ethical considerations into tender analysis is crucial for:
* Adherence to Sustainability Initiatives:Ensuring that suppliers align with the organisation's sustainability goals and legal obligations.
* Risk Identification:Assessing ESG factors helps in identifying potential risks in the supply chain, such as environmental violations or unethical labour practices, which can impact the organisation's reputation and operations.
Exact Extract from Study Guide:
"This unit focuses on responsible procurement practices, ensuring that sourcing decisions align with legal, environmental, and social governance (ESG) principles."
NEW QUESTION # 246
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?
Answer: A
Explanation:
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.

NEW QUESTION # 247
Ali is the Category Manager at an airplane manufacturing factory. He works with many different suppliers who provide different components for the planes. The company is investing heavily in Environmental and Social Governance and Ali has been asked by the CEO what the best practice is to ensure ethical behaviour from suppliers. Ali has suggested completing Audits. Is this the right thing to do?
Answer: C
Explanation:
The correct answer is 'yes - these can be completed without warning which would give Ali an accurate picture of the supplier's operations'. The other options are incorrect:
1) you can do many types of audit- financial, ethical, Health and Safety etc
2) asking a supplier about their ethical practices isn't likely going to get you accurate information. They'll just tell you what they think you want to hear
3) audits are great- but they don't ALWAYS uncover issues. Always is the key word in that sentence which makes it incorrect.
NEW QUESTION # 248
What are some of the benefits of conducting unscheduled supplier audits? Select TWO that apply.
Answer: C,D
Explanation:
Unscheduled audits can provide an unbiased view of supplier practices and help identify compliance issues that might be hidden during scheduled audits. This approach supports responsible sourcing by ensuring accurate assessments of ethical and quality standards.
