Procurement gets involved in negotiating purchase requisitions only when there is a value analysis to ensure that only value-adding aspects are included. Is this statement true?
A.
No, purchasing can negotiate other details of the purchase requisition even where value analysis is absent
B.
No, value analysis is a very technical process that requires the expertise of engineering and financial analysts
C.
Yes, the role of purchasing is to add value to the purchase, and therefore every purchase requisition must go through a team value analysis
D.
Yes, value analysis is the single most important responsibility of procurement in the processing of repeat requisitions
Procurement can negotiate various aspects of a purchase requisition even without a formal value analysis. While value analysis can enhance cost-effectiveness, procurement professionals often negotiate on pricing, terms, and conditions to add value independently of value analysis, as per CIPS’s guidelines on procurement flexibility in negotiations.
