The objective of negotiation with a supplier is to ensure the Five Rights of Procurement. Which of the following are part of the Five Rights? Select THREE.
The Five Rights of Procurement are fundamental principles ensuring procurement delivers value. They are:
Right product – ensuring goods/services meet requirements.
Right quality – ensuring standards are appropriate.
Right time – goods/services are available when needed.
Right place – ensuring delivery is to the correct location.
Right price – balancing cost efficiency with value.
Options B, C, and D reflect these principles. “Right supplier” and “right relationship” are not part of the traditional five rights, though they are important in broader supplier management. By aligning negotiations with the Five Rights, procurement professionals secure both operational efficiency and strategic value. These principles also provide benchmarks against which procurement performance can be measured.
