The Scoring Analysis feature in oboloo provides a comprehensive overview of supplier evaluations.

This tool allows procurement teams to:

✔ Compare scores from multiple evaluators
✔ Identify trends in supplier performance
✔ Ensure transparency in the evaluation process
✔ Make data-driven sourcing decisions

By using scoring insights, you can validate supplier selection based on structured evaluation criteria rather than subjective opinions.

📌 This guide will walk you through the step-by-step process of analyzing supplier scores and using insights to make informed procurement decisions.

Step-by-Step Guide: Analyzing Supplier Scores

Step 1: Accessing the Scoring Analysis Tab

Once scorers have submitted their evaluations, you can access the Scoring Analysis Tab to review and compare supplier performance.

1. Navigate to the Sourcing module from the left-hand menu.

2. Select the relevant sourcing activity from the Sourcing Home Page.

3. In the Sourcing Activity record, click on the Scoring Analysis tab.

Step 2: Reviewing Overall Supplier Scores

The Scoring Analysis tab provides a high-level overview of supplier performance.

1. Each supplier’s total score is displayed based on individual evaluations submitted by internal scorers.

2. If weighted scoring was applied, oboloo automatically factors in weighting to reflect the importance of different sections.

3. The Overall Supplier Scores allow you to quickly see which suppliers performed the best across all evaluation areas.

Step 3: Analyzing Scores by Section

To gain deeper insights into supplier strengths and weaknesses, oboloo breaks down scores by Supplier Sections and Supplier Questionnaires.

1. In the Scoring Analysis tab, scores are categorized by:

   • Supplier Questionnaires – Evaluating compliance, experience, and expertise.

   • Supplier Sections – Reviewing project plans, delivery capabilities, and certifications.

2. Use this breakdown to identify:

   • Areas where each supplier excelled

   • Sections where suppliers underperformed

3. This analysis helps ensure high-ranking suppliers align with your specific project or business requirements.

Best Practices for Using Scoring Analytics and Insights

✅ Review Scores Early – Begin analyzing scoring insights as soon as evaluations are submitted. This helps identify discrepancies and trends early.

✅ Use Section-Level Insights – Do not rely solely on overall scores. Review individual section scores to ensure supplier capabilities align with key sourcing needs.

✅ Collaborate with Scorers – If scoring discrepancies arise, use scoring insights to:

• Compare scores from different scorers.

• Review comments added by scorers for justification.

• Understand why certain scores were assigned.

✅ Leverage Data for Decision-Making – Use scoring analytics to justify supplier selection to stakeholders and ensure transparency.
