Question 320
An organization delivering with a predictive approach discovers: In a sustainable infrastructure expansion, a commercial commitment is imminent and supplier accountability must be demonstrable. A review finds: A supplier offers a discount for exclusive components that would create a serious single-source dependency. Which result should be used to validate improvement in the stated situation?
Explanation
Correct Answer
“The award rationale explicitly addresses continuity, alternatives, and residual dependency risk.” is meaningful evidence for “In a sustainable infrastructure expansion, a commercial commitment is imminent and supplier accountability must be demonstrable; A review finds: A supplier offers a discount for exclusive components that would create a serious single-source dependency” because it demonstrates the practical outcome of “Compare total lifecycle value and supply concentration risk before accepting the procurement proposal.” instead of merely recording that work took place.

“Signed terms assign incident duties and a joint test demonstrates workable escalation.” could measure performance for “An outsourcing contract omits responsibility for customer data breaches and operational incident cooperation.”, yet it is not direct evidence that “In a sustainable infrastructure expansion, a commercial commitment is imminent and supplier accountability must be demonstrable; A review finds: A supplier offers a discount for exclusive components that would create a serious single-source dependency” has been resolved through “Compare total lifecycle value and supply concentration risk before accepting the procurement proposal.”.
“Demonstrated integrated capabilities meet specified backlog acceptance tests before further commitment.” could measure performance for “An agile project keeps purchasing vendor features based on demos without validating integration with its product.”, yet it is not direct evidence that “In a sustainable infrastructure expansion, a commercial commitment is imminent and supplier accountability must be demonstrable; A review finds: A supplier offers a discount for exclusive components that would create a serious single-source dependency” has been resolved through “Compare total lifecycle value and supply concentration risk before accepting the procurement proposal.”.
