A system and method is provided for improved reporting of supplier performance.
A system receives and processes data to enable reporting of on-time performance
relative to a plurality of order start points and a plurality of order end points.
Buyers and suppliers report on-time performance for system processing using the
delivery start points and end points collected in the normal course of their business
operations. System users may obtain supplier on-time performance reports indicating
the on-time performance of suppliers relative to the plurality of start point/end
point pairs reflected in the collected data. A system and method is also provided
for improved reporting of reject performance. A system stores collected information
predictive of whether an order reject was supplier caused or buyer caused. The
predicted cause of order rejects is reflected in supplier reject performance as
reported to system users.
