Why it’s important to rate suppliersĭo you really know where, and who it is you buy from?ĭo you truly know why you buy from the suppliers you buy from? Visualize a data point for analysis, based upon an aggregation of multiple variables, and allow that user to make their own decisions based upon the information at hand. But, at heart, the value added to the end-user is the same. Yelp gives a user the ability to remain nimble, but also dig into deep analysis, in order to form a decision founded in insights, and then comment upon their own experience for those who will visit that business’ profile thereafter.Ī Supplier Rating, Profile, or Scorecard should be a bit more robust than a 1–5 Star Like scale, like a Yelp profile, shows about local businesses, bars & restaurants.
It’s a cockpit for understanding more about a business where one plans to potentially make a new investment, leave a review, or continue to support. What if your Suppliers had a Yelp profile?Ī Yelp review page (for those who aren’t familiar w/ the app), consists of a 1–5 Star overall rating visualized in a scorecard/profile, a bit of information surrounding the attributes of that business (location, type of company, contact details, hyperlinks to websites, photos, etc.), and input from other stakeholders.
When selecting a restaurant, you’re one Yelp search away from 360º insights. To truly know what you’re buying, you need to know where that supplier is, who they are, how they’re adding value to your organization and why you’re buying from them. Purchasing decisions require 360º insights, and if 360-degrees of business intelligence isn’t possible, at least 180º. Making ‘data-driven decisions’ into the predominant mode of operating is difficult when data visualization is low, data quality is iffy and input is partial. Unfortunately, your homegrown solutions & spreadsheets aren’t doing you any favors team input is siloed, data sources are stagnant and visibility is poor. Utilizing improvised solutions is still the norm in many procurement organizations.
For risk management, stakeholder management, category management, and information sharing, that figure rises to more than 70%” (Bain & Company 2018). Procurement Leaders’ research has shown that “for workflow assignment and supplier relationship management (SRM), more than 60% have no tools or rely primarily on improvised systems using Microsoft Office. But, we rely on our ERP systems & spreadsheets to manage tactical and strategic buying decisions when we walk into the office. We make buying decisions and investments on a daily basis, in our private lives, based upon a plethora of information, insights & data sources. The level of risk in these two investments are comparatively incomparable, but humor me here.

This is an odd stream of consciousness, yes, but I started pondering the likenesses and discourses between professional & private buying habits & processes.ĭeciding to eat at Luigi’s Italian Market, and negotiating billion-dollar contracts aren’t really in the same league of purchasing decisions. Going out to eat, in essence, starts with a mini ‘supplier’ evaluation gathering information, processing information, evaluating your options, and making a (team) buying-decision based upon the data at hand (other diner’s opinions, reviewed performance, accolades, etc.) where you’d like to invest for that meal. It’s a sure thing that you’re going to invest time and money in this experience, and you want to make sure it’s going to be worth it, no? But, you don’t want to eat at just any old restaurant. You may want to try a new restaurant, or want to weigh your options of restaurants you’ve previously been to dine. There’s often not many seconds between the proposition of eating out, and a frantic barrage of mobile searches on various review sites, blog posts and news articles. Has your friend, or partner, ever looked at you and said, “Let’s go out to eat!” (Side Note: we’re talking about pre- or post- COVID 19 of course) and put a review on Yelp?
