As part of the SayPro Monthly SCMR Supplier Database Training Workshop, participants will learn how to assess the performance of suppliers effectively. One key aspect of supplier management is generating performance reports that track supplier effectiveness across various metrics. Below are examples of performance reports and analytics that can be used to assess supplier effectiveness, including the key performance indicators (KPIs) that should be tracked and evaluated.
1. Supplier Performance Evaluation Report

Include the supplier’s name, contract number, and relevant project details. - KPI Summary
A summary table of the KPIs evaluated for the reporting period (monthly, quarterly, or annually).
KPIs to Include:
- On-Time Delivery Rate
Percentage of orders delivered on time compared to total orders. - Product/Service Quality
Percentage of products or services that meet quality standards (e.g., no defects, meets specifications). - Compliance Rate
Percentage of compliance with regulatory and contractual terms. - Order Accuracy
Percentage of orders delivered accurately (correct quantity, product specifications, etc.). - Customer Service Response Time

Each key area is rated on a scale (e.g., 1-5 or Poor to Excellent). These ratings can be weighted based on importance to the business or procurement needs.
Key Performance Areas (KPAs):
- Quality
- Delivery/Timeliness
- Price/Cost
- Customer Service
- Innovation/Technology
- Compliance
Report Format Example:
| Performance Area | Weight | Rating (1-5) | Total Score (Weight x Rating) |
