Supplier Scorecard

Plastics & Resins Supplier Scorecard

A scorecard for plastics & resins suppliers turns quality, delivery, commercial and risk performance into a single monthly number you can defend in an award decision or a QBR.

Resin prices track oil and petrochemical feedstocks, but molded parts add tooling, cycle time and cavitation on top. Without a scorecard, plastics & resins awards drift toward incumbency and price, ignoring reliability and total cost.

SourcingHub generates a plastics & resins-specific scorecard template with weighted KPIs, tracks them over time, and flags underperformers before they become an escalation.

Fields every Plastics & Resins supplier scorecard should cover

  • Resin grade (PE, PP, PET, ABS…) and additives
  • Part weight, cycle time and cavitation
  • Tooling ownership and amortization
  • Regrind / recycled content policy
  • Feedstock index (Platts, IHS)
  • Colorant and packaging costs

Frequently asked

Which KPIs matter most for Plastics & Resins suppliers?

For plastics & resins, weight quality and delivery (Regrind / recycled content policy, Feedstock index (Platts, IHS), Colorant and packaging costs) more heavily than raw price — a cheap supplier that misses SLAs erodes savings fast.

How often should I run the scorecard?

Monthly is the norm for critical suppliers; quarterly is enough for tail-spend. SourcingHub can automate the data pull and email the scorecard to internal stakeholders.

Should I share the scorecard with the supplier?

Yes — sharing the scorecard turns it into a management tool instead of a scoreboard. Best practice is to review it jointly during QBRs and set corrective actions.

How do I weight the KPIs?

Start with 40% quality, 30% delivery, 20% commercial, 10% risk / compliance, and adjust based on category criticality. SourcingHub lets you tune weights and save them per category.
