I would recommend first of all to go with SRM 7.0 version with netweaver technology as that is the latest version and with SRM 7.0 going forward there will be enhancements packs for any new upgrade so you do not have to spend much time upgrading it.
Coming back to your question, About recommending SRM - SUS, You may be aware that SAP bought Ariba and SAP future landscape is to have folks who are having low volume can utilize Ariba Supplier network which is more cost effective then maintaining own SRM SUS server and in Ariba Supplier network you can do all the activities which you have mentioned above.
Yes. It's possible through z. We have tried it before but it's not consistent. Indeed we didn't continue with it. So if your technical scenario is ESC & if it needs to configure SUS one should go for consulting solution.
