Show Answer
Correct Answer: AC

When assessing and recommending the best solution for a new third-party sales tool, the most appropriate technique is Vendor Assessment. Vendor Assessment focuses on evaluating third-party solutions, ensuring their viability, and assessing the vendor's ability to maintain a healthy working relationship. This is critical when selecting third-party tools as it ensures that both the product and the vendor meet the organization's needs and standards.

I think it's Decision Analysis Vendor assessment is an evaluation and approval process that businesses can use to determine if prospective vendors and suppliers can meet their organizational standards and obligations once under contract. The end goal is to secure a low-risk, best-in-class vendor and supplier portfolio. Decision analysis (DA) is a form of decision-making.

Vendor assessment is not correct because maybe they build it in-house, in this case no vendor can be assessed.
