Compare Suppliers Without the Spreadsheet Mess
Enter supplier names, score a few criteria, and optionally weight what matters most. You’ll get a ranked comparison you can actually use in a decision meeting.
Suppliers + scores
Use a simple 1–5 scale. If you can’t justify a score in one sentence, it’s a research gap.
Turn off weights if you want a straight average.
Comparison table
A clean ranking you can bring into a decision meeting.
If this feels wrong, it’s usually because weights don’t match reality—or a criterion needs real data (lead times, failure rates, switching cost).
| RANK | SUPPLIER | SCORE |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Supplier A | 3.69 |
| 2 | Supplier B | 3.44 |
If two suppliers are close, pick the one with lower operational risk—or use the runner-up as leverage in the contract.
When to use this
Best for quick, defensible decisions—not perfect math.
Before renewals
Build leverage. A real alternative changes the negotiation tone immediately.
During vendor selection
Keep the conversation anchored on what matters—not who tells the best story.
When teams disagree
Make trade-offs explicit: price vs reliability vs risk. No more vibes-only debates.
FAQ
Short answers. Practical intent.
+How should I score each criterion?
Use a simple 1–5 scale. 3 is “acceptable,” 5 is “excellent.” If you can’t justify a score in one sentence, you don’t know yet—go get the info.
+Should price be weighted the highest?
Only if switching is easy and failures are cheap. If reliability or delivery risk can stop revenue, price should not dominate the decision.
+Do you store this data?
No. This tool is front-end only. Your inputs stay in your browser.
