An initial step toward the implementation of the resulting information systems plan was the development of a supplier performance information system. It encompasses the functional aspects of an executive information system and an output archive. The supplier performance information system includes the capability to track multiple supplier performance metrics. It combines/compares these data in various ways, as well as aggregating them into an overall program metric. The system is networked-based and was designed to utilize the company’s existing hardware, software and communications assets to the fullest extent possible. ER -
