Challenge

Supplier performance insights, made visible.

Your employees know which suppliers are on time, provide the best pricing and have the best product quality—but this knowledge is scattered across multiple employees, departments and systems. Prebuilt questionnaires in the apex Platform help you gather the knowledge about your suppliers into one place to give you visibility and information to take action.

Solution

A single dashboard for supplier performance.

Turn scorecards into strategy. The apex platform is built on advanced supplier registration that assures a complete, accurate and up-to-date “golden record.”

In the same system, you have performance-related supplier data captured with prebuilt segment-specific questionnaires based on industry best practices. Answers are automatically scored so you can identify issues and opportunities. Take quick action to improve the financial performance, reliability, quality, safety and responsiveness of your supply chain in partnership with your suppliers.

Take action.

Performance management starts with intuitive, graphical scorecards that show how a supplier has performed across key metrics over time, so you can make data-backed procurement decisions.

 

Drill down into each category to identify issues. Use this information to launch informed strategies from sourcing to payment, collaborate with suppliers for continuous improvement, and take quick action on underperforming suppliers before your business loses time, money and the trust of your customers.
