Ruby is a Contracts Manager at ACE Ltd and manages a contract with Spades Ltd which provides raw materials. She has found a serious issue in Spade's conduct. Which TWO documents should Ruby complete?
When a supplier’s conduct breaches expected standards, the appropriate tools are Root Cause Analysis (to identify why the issue occurred) and a Corrective Action Plan (to detail how the supplier will fix and prevent recurrence). The L5M5 study guide (p.228) emphasises that KPIs should already be established at the start of the contract, and a single conduct issue may not mean performance indicators are being missed. SWOT analysis is not suitable in this scenario, as it is a strategic tool rather than a compliance or corrective measure. Corrective actions ensure continuous improvement and supplier accountability, which are essential for ethical supply chain management.
