The role of suppliers as a component of a company's competitive advantage is increasingly on the rise, and companies stand to realize many benefits from assessing and developing their supply base.
While most enterprises view vendor performance as critical, only half have formal supplier management programs in place. Some companies have patched together Excel-based systems to track performance but find it is onerous to manage. Others have invested in armies of assessors who systematically survey key suppliers; this approach, however, is neither scalable nor cost efficient. And yet others too often rely on only basic external measures of supplier performance. Without insight into the performance being delivered to their company, they have little chance of affecting sustainable performance gains.
Emptoris Supplier Performance Management overcomes these challenges and enables efficient evaluation and tracking of supplier performance through a central repository of key performance indicators and scorecards and a robust assessment capability that identifies root cause drivers of a suppliers' performance.
