Answer to Question 1

In order to select a vendor, a buyer has to gather data about vendors and products,
make analyses of costs and margins, and store the results of those analyses. If an information
system (IS) is not used to store these results, accessing past records and results will require a
manual search. An IS makes the process of finding reliable data and reports faster and more
reliable, improving the efficiency and quality of the business process.

TRUE
