  • No call, no meeting, no account
  • Prepared under a 17-year supply chain principal
  • Full refund if it cannot be produced from what you send

Who this is for

Small manufacturer or distributor managing 6-25 suppliers with no formal scoring system

Procurement lead prepping for a supplier business review with no data to back up talking points

Ops manager who suspects one supplier is underperforming but cannot prove it with numbers

Company facing single-source risk that needs to be documented before a leadership conversation

“You know some suppliers are better than others, but without a scored comparison across cost, quality and delivery, every supplier conversation is based on gut feel, and the underperforming supplier who talks well in meetings keeps the business anyway. Continuing to send volume to a supplier with hidden quality or delivery problems can cost thousands in returns, rework or missed customer deadlines before anyone catches it in the numbers.”

What you get

  • A scored scorecard for each supplier: on-time delivery, quality, cost and responsiveness
  • Weighting applied to your stated priorities, shown so you can adjust it
  • A ranked list from best to worst performing supplier
  • Red flags: concentration risk, declining trend, single-source exposure
  • Talking points for your next supplier business review, per supplier
  • A quarterly re-run template so you can track the same suppliers next quarter

Order: Supplier Scorecard & Vendor Performance Report

⏰ About 5 minutes · a handful of questions

By ordering you accept the terms and this product's scope: This scorecard is an estimate prepared from the records and inputs you provide and public benchmarking norms. It is not an audit of your suppliers, not legal, tax, customs or engineering advice, and does not guarantee supplier performance. You are responsible for using it in your own supplier decisions. If the scorecard cannot be produced from what you provide, you are refunded in full.

Questions

What if I only have memory, no records?

You will still get a scorecard, but it will be marked as based on your qualitative input rather than transaction data. Attaching even a rough spend or PO export sharpens the scoring considerably.

Can you re-run this next quarter?

Yes. The report includes a template for that; order again with updated numbers for a fresh scorecard.

How long does it take?

Most scorecards are delivered within 24 hours of your submission.

Refunds?

If the scorecard cannot be produced from what you submitted, full refund. Delivered reports are non-refundable.

Weighted to your stated priorities and built the way a supplier-management practitioner scores vendors, not a generic spreadsheet template, with a refund if the scorecard cannot be produced from what you submit.
