March/June 2021 Q3(a)(i)
Sir, the questions require us to explain whether the four-year software contract with Cent Co is a single PO?
In my thoughts, I think it can be conclude that it’s a separate PO due to software and the 4yrs updates reflect SASP AND software can function on its own without the updates.
However, I am not understand why there is a single PO in this arrangement. Can you explain it to me?
Thank you in advance.
August 29, 2021 at 12:52 pm #633379They are looking for discussion of the principles, so don’t worry too much about the conclusion.
The question is – are the products sold separately – so could I buy the software from one supplier and the updates from another supplier? If not it is likely to be a single PO.
August 29, 2021 at 1:33 pm #633383Sir, in the questions it states that ‘monthly updates improve effectiveness, not essential to its functionality’. It seems like separate PO, software can function without the updates.
I think the products can sold separately too, since software and updates are SASP.
Why it’s single PO?
Thank you.

As I said they are just looking for a discussion of the principles.
