Supplier evaluation software for your quality management

Challenge

How unclear supplier evaluations jeopardize your quality goals

Companies that do not evaluate their suppliers in a structured manner risk quality problems and a loss of potential. However, in practice, there is often a lack of clarity, comparability, and meaningfulness.

Lack of objectivity: Evaluations are often based on subjective assessments rather than reliable figures.
No uniform criteria: Different standards make consistent classification difficult.
Time-consuming evaluations: Manual evaluations and a lack of automation cost time and nerves.
Unclear development: Without comparative values, it is difficult to evaluate supplier performance over longer periods of time.
Limited comparability: A transparent comparison of several suppliers is hardly possible.
No feedback: Suppliers do not know their rating or do not understand the evaluation.

Without centralized supplier evaluation software, the quality level of your supply chain remains uncontrolled - and important optimization opportunities are not recognized.

Solution

Evaluate your suppliers in a structured, transparent, and automated manner

Our supplier evaluation software enables you to classify your suppliers in a well-founded, traceable manner – individually applicable and fully integrable into your QM solution.

Objective evaluation: Use clear key figures such as complaint rates, adherence to delivery dates, or audit results for a traceable classification.
Freely definable criteria: Add individual soft facts such as availability or flexibility for a holistic picture.
Automated processes: Calculate supplier key figures automatically on a monthly basis based on current quality data.
Versioning of evaluation schemes: Define your own evaluation schemes – for all suppliers or differentiated by groups.
Simulation function: Test evaluation schemes in advance and ensure that your criteria lead to the desired results.
Transparent communication: Give your suppliers insight into their evaluations – including evaluation formulas and underlying processes.

Whether supplier evaluation according to VDA or company-specific standards – our supplier evaluation software supports you in systematically improving your supplier management.
