$0.00

Modern manufacturing is often executed across global networks of suppliers, making it difficult to discriminate between suppliers that are providing high quality products and those that are subpar.

This essay outlines an alternative method for understanding supplier quality called the supplier quality ratio (SQR).

SQR divides the total number of Discrepant Material Reports (DMRs) generated by a supplier by the number of POs placed with the supplier during a given period of time.
