Actual exam question for CIPS's L4M4 exam
Question #: 18
Topic #: 1
[All L4M4 Questions]

Tulip Rose Industries is using a restricted approach to tendering for a new contract for the facilities management of their seven factories which produce furniture made of organic materials. What is likely to be the reason they are using a restricted approach?

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: D

you would use a restricted approach when interest is likely to be high. The buyer needs a method of de-selecting unsuitable bidders and creating a shortlist of acceptable organisations.

For complex requirements you could use both an open or restrictive tender- the difference between the approaches is about how many bids you're likely to get rather than the complexity of it.

I see your point, Armando. It's important to ensure qualified suppliers for such a big contract.

But what if the suppliers are likely to be unqualified? That could also be a reason.

Haha, D? Really? Who would think high interest in a contract for seven furniture factories? That's just silly.

Definitely C. With only seven factories, the interest in this tender opportunity is probably going to be pretty low.

B sounds more likely to me. The suppliers for this specialized industry may not have the necessary qualifications.

I think the answer is A. The requirement is complex for maintaining seven factories with organic furniture production.
