Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The role described in the question is that of a buyer, who is responsible for selecting suppliers and managing the procurement process. Deciders make the final decision on which product or service to purchase, gatekeepers control access to key decision-makers within the organization, and influencers provide information and recommendations to the decision-making team. While these roles may also be part of the DMU, they are not specifically responsible for the procurement function described in the question.
