Supplier/Vendor Rating Tab

Use this tab to view supplier/vendor rating information for a regular vendor.

Note: This tab is visible only for regular vendors and is hidden for prospective vendors.

This read-only tab displays the supplier/vendor rating for the specific regular vendor indicated in the Vendor ID field on the main screen. All rating data comes from the Manage Contracts and Manage Subcontracts screens (that is, you still need to enter the ratings on these screens).

Use the Supplier/Vendor Rating subtask on this tab to view the supplier performance ratings on the following evaluation areas:

  • Responsiveness/Innovation
  • Customer Service, Quality and Delivery
  • Financial
  • Relationship

Table Window

Field Description
Subcontractor/Vendor ID This field displays the vendor ID of the regular vendor.
Subcontractor/Vendor Name This field displays the name of the regular vendor.
Total Score

This field displays the total numeric score for the vendor. It is the vendor's total score from the contract or subcontract record where ratings for the vendor were entered.

Costpoint calculates this value as the sum of all the scores entered on the Supplier/Vendor Rating subtask for the vendor (on the Manage Contracts or Manage Subcontracts screen) for a specific project and review date. If there are no values on the Supplier/Vendor Rating subtask for the vendor/project/date reviewed combination, this field displays 0. This value can exceed 100.

You can view the rating codes associated with these scores on the Supplier/Vendor Rating subtask of this tab.

Percent

This field displays the rating of the vendor in percent for a specific project and review date. It is the vendor's rating in percent from the contract or subcontract record where ratings for the vendor were entered.

Costpoint calculates this value using the Total Score value and the highest possible total score on the Supplier/Vendor Rating subtask (on the Manage Contracts or Manage Subcontracts screen) given the top score set up on the Manage Supplier Vendor Rating Codes screen.

For example, if there are 15 of 20 defined rating fields and the top score is 8, the highest rating is 120 (15 x 8). If Total Score is 60, then Percent is 50% (60 / 120).

Note: The number of defined rating fields is equivalent to the number of Description Codes with a corresponding Description on the Manage Supplier Vendor Rating Descriptions screen. These defined rating fields are displayed on the Supplier/Vendor Rating subtask of Manage Contracts or Manage Subcontracts, and also on the Supplier/Vendor Rating subtask on this tab.
Project ID This field displays the ID of the project that the vendor is working on.
Project Name This field displays the project name.
Product/Services Provided This field displays the type of products or services provided by the vendor.
Date Reviewed This field displays the date the vendor was reviewed.
Rating Source This field displays whether the rating comes from a Contract or Subcontract record.
Contract ID This field displays the contract ID where the vendor ratings were entered. If the source of the rating is a subcontract record, this field also displays the contract ID associated with the subcontract.
Subcontract ID This field displays the subcontract ID where the vendor ratings were entered.
