Not every potential supplier should become an approved supplier. Supplier qualification is the gate that protects quality, compliance, and financial integrity.

Qualification Criteria by Category

Critical suppliers — those providing raw materials or components that affect product quality — require more stringent qualification than indirect suppliers of office stationery. Define criteria by category.

The Qualification Workflow in ERP

Qualification starts with a supplier information request, leads to document verification (registration certificates, tax compliance, quality certifications), and concludes with an assessment against defined criteria.

Ongoing Performance Monitoring

Qualification is not a one-time event. ERP tracks delivery performance, quality performance, and payment terms compliance for every approved supplier — with automatic demotion of consistently underperforming suppliers.

Approved Supplier List Management

ERP maintains the approved supplier list — the only suppliers from whom procurement is authorized. Attempts to create purchase orders for non-approved suppliers are blocked automatically.
