Introduction

Gatekeeper’s Scorecard module provides you with the tools you need to capture and monitor the performance of your Organisation’s suppliers. It allows you to survey individuals and teams within your organisation about the performance of the suppliers they interact with. Scorecards gives you a clear understanding of those suppliers that are out performing and those that are not.

Scorecards and their surveys that collect the data are broken down into two Dimensions:

Primary Dimensions

Primary Dimensions represent the main categories within your Scorecard. These Dimensions help to define the different areas of your supplier's performance you wish to capture. For example you might want to separate a scorecard survey into three distinct categories, such as: Finance, Communication and Compliance.

Sub-Dimensions

Sub-Dimensions represent the individual score data or survey questions you wish to capture within each Primary Dimension. These can be in the form of survey questions or a simple heading.

⚠️ Note: Changing the sub-dimensions of an open survey within a scorecard can prevent the weighting from equalling 100%, resulting in the survey functioning incorrectly. Additionally, changes to the scorecard configuration, such as archiving questions, will affect historical survey answers. For example, archived questions will no longer appear when reviewing past surveys.
