Site Visit Request & Completion
Where a questionnaire or application form doesn't quite meet the requirements a site visit can be requested by an administrator, this would allow a member of the quality department to visit the supplier and report back on their findings and if they believe the supplier should be added to the companies supplier list.
Accreditation Certificates
The questionnaire allows the supplier to upload digital copies of all their accreditations, they can then proceed to enter an expiry date if one is present. When a certificate is about to expire the portal automatically duplicates their last questionnaire and emails the supplier requesting them to re-file the application with their new accreditation by sending them an email request, this allows supplier data to constantly be up to date.
Automated Scoring
Based on your scoring matrix, each questionnaire is giving a score which in turn is given a colour coded band, the bands are a visual indication on whether or not that supplier should be accepted. On top of this there are colour coding's for potential spend and value of business. Administrators can enter the potential spend via the admin console which then updates the band.
