Claudio wants to limit risks from supplier financial instability. Which two actions are most effective?
A. Use fewer suppliers
B. Limit spend with one supplier to 30% of external spend
C. Contract smaller businesses and start-ups
D. Have contingency plans in place
正解:B、D
解説:
The most effective approaches are:
* Limiting dependence on one supplier [B]: CIPS suggests no more than 30% of spend should be concentrated with a single supplier. This reduces exposure if that supplier becomes insolvent or fails to deliver.
* Having contingency plans [D]: Preparing alternative suppliers, safety stock, or emergency logistics ensures continuity in case of failure.
Options A and C are poor practices:
* Using fewer suppliers [A]: Increases dependency, making the business more vulnerable.
* Using small start-ups exclusively [C]: Increases risk because these firms often lack financial stability.
These strategies align with broader supply risk management principles, which focus on diversification, resilience, and proactive planning. Effective category managers must balance efficiency with risk reduction, ensuring supply continuity without over-consolidating.

According to studies completed by Reeves, Moose and Venema in 2014, which of the following was proven to be true with regards to the BCG matrix?
A. There is a higher correlation between share leaders and profit leaders nowadays than in the past
B. Products move through the four quadrants faster nowadays than in the past
C. Companies nowadays have more 'cash cow' items than in the past
D. There is a longer time between innovation and adoption nowadays than in the past
正解:B
解説:
Reeves, Moose and Venema (2014) established that products move through the four quadrants of the BCG matrix more quickly in the modern business environment compared to the past. This is a reflection of faster innovation cycles, market saturation, and increased competition. The other three statements are the opposite of what their research proved.

質問 # 36
Which of the following approaches to cost is the least transparent?
A. Price acceptance
B. Price management
C. Cost out
D. Cost down
正解:A
解説:
Price acceptance is the least transparent approach because the buyer simply accepts the supplier's quoted price without investigating its basis or fairness. There is no visibility into the supplier's cost structure, margins, or pricing methodology.
By contrast:
* Price management involves actively managing pricing discussions.
* Cost down involves collaborative efforts to reduce costs after production.
* Cost out involves eliminating costs before production through design.
