Abstract

See full text

A system and method for configuring a scoring rule is described. One embodiment includes constructing a performance level code for each performance metric in the scoring rule, designating performance levels and corresponding raw score ranges for each performance level code, assigning a performance metric point maximum to each performance metric and assigning a performance level weighting to each performance level. These relationships, which define the scoring rule, are set forth in a performance level code repository and a scoring rule repository. A system and method for computing a supplier performance rating also are described. In one embodiment, a raw score generator generates a raw score for each performance metric in the scoring rule, a performance level generator converts the raw scores into performance levels, a scaled score generator converts the performance levels into scaled scores and a performance rating generator sums the scaled scores to produce the performance rating.
