GUIDE: 12 Problems of Procurement (and how to solve them)

Vendor Ratings

Engage the best vendors using past performance, not gut feel

Procure with confidence by relying on real performance data, not anecdotes and opinions. Sharing insights helps you select reliable, high-quality vendors that are critical to delivering your project.

Engage the best vendors using past performance, not gut feel
The Old Way

No insight into vendor’s past performance

Out of sight, out of mind

“We rate subbie’s performance, but they disappear on the intranet. Inevitably when we get busy, we’re making decisions on the fly without all the information.”

It’s a race to the bottom

"We ask our team’s opinions on subs, but it’s pretty ad hoc. We usually end up selecting whoever’s cheapest on the face of it, which can backfire later on."

We don’t learn our lessons

”There’s a wealth of experience to learn from, yet we often ignore it as we rush to start the next job. It’s crazy that we keeping repeating our mistakes.”
