Assessment 2
Question 5
Wholesale seafood suppliers
The Fish Factory’s contract should be replaced by the B & E Foods as they offer more prompt
delivery at short notice which is necessary for fast-moving goods like fish. The company has
refrigerated vans and procure material from reliable suppliers in Brisbane which ensures supreme
product quality.
Bakery and Food Ingredient Supplier
JL Stewart and sons should be replaced with PE foods as they provide bigger product range,
grants credit period and the pricing terms are negotiable. They have a loyal customer base which
indicates the quality of service and reliability of products supplied by them.
Cutlery suppliers
The existing supplier QCC Hospitality supplier should be retained as the quality has already been
tested and it costs more economical as the order is mostly made in bulk.
Question 6
Currently, the terms for managing the suppliers are not much formal and stringent. However, in
order to maintain a harmonious relationship, there should be a formal agreement with every
supplier with detailed terms and conditions. However, the following are the key points that
should be addressed in every supplier’s contract-
 Price quotation for different items.
 Quality specifications.
 If the price varies it should be specified what will be the conditions that will lead to
variations in prices.
 Packaging requirements should be clearly specified.
 Lead time after the purchase requisition is raised should be outlined.
7

Assessment 2
 The delivery frequency required should be specified in the order.
 Emergency purchase requirements and pricing in such cases.
 Insurance
 Liability if any extra cost is incurred.
(Upcounsel, n.d.)
Question 7
The contracts will be made for six months and the negotiations will be made in advance. The
terms and conditions of the contract will clearly indicate that the prices that are not subject to
variations will not be allowed for renegotiation.
