Supplier QBRs without spreadsheet theatre

Turn supplier data into a scorecard people can defend.

Create consistent delivery, quality, responsiveness, and cost exception reports from exports you already have—complete with evidence and metric caveats.

Early-access validation, openly stated.A small software studio building focused operations tools. This is a genuinely delivered pilot—not a claim that finished software already exists.

Why this exists

Built around the work competitors leave behind.

Procurement and supply-chain teams that review suppliers monthly or quarterly.

01

Scorecard inputs live across ERP exports, quality logs, emails, and buyer spreadsheets.

02

Metric definitions change between reviews, making supplier comparisons hard to defend.

03

Enterprise suites are configurable, but smaller teams inherit implementation and administration work.

The focused promise

A reusable, evidence-linked supplier scorecard and QBR brief with disputed and incomplete metrics called out.

We deliberately keep judgment, authorization, and consequential decisions with your team. The pilot automates the legwork that can be made observable and repeatable.

Fast path to evidence

Useful before it becomes software.

One bounded workflow. Real output. A clear go/no-go decision.

  1. 1
    Step 1

    Choose four to six metrics that already exist in your source exports.

  2. 2
    Step 2

    Run one sanitized reporting period through the scorecard template.

  3. 3
    Step 3

    Reuse the mapping next period to prove the workflow is repeatable.

Hard boundary: No supplier sanctions, autonomous sourcing decisions, ERP writes, performance guarantees, or unsupported benchmark claims.

Competitor-review intelligence

Recurring friction became product requirements.

We reviewed dated public operator discussions, preserved the caveats, and converted the repeated pain into design choices. No scraped review-marketplace content and no invented testimonials.

SAP Ariba · Coupa · Email · Excel

Mid-market practitioners described long email chains, repeated document chasing, fragmented ownership, missing information, and a gap between spreadsheets and very large enterprise suites.

Our response: Use a no-login completeness gate, show every requirement up front, and route exceptions to one accountable owner.

See evidence and caveat

SAP Ariba

Supplier-side operators reported unintuitive registration forms, interface failures, unresolved support loops, and repeated automated reminders after the buyer had abandoned the request.

Our response: Do not require supplier accounts; validate the interface with suppliers; stop reminders when an authorized owner pauses or abandons a request.

See evidence and caveat

Coupa

A large Coupa operator described useful configurability and vendor ranking, alongside substantial administration and particular onboarding difficulty for small suppliers.

Our response: Compete on supplier effort and clear completeness, not on matching an enterprise suite feature for feature.

Reciprocity, with something genuinely useful

Take the checklist, even if we never work together.

The defensible supplier scorecard template is a practical starting point for improving this workflow today.

Design-partner offer

Supplier Scorecard Proof Run

€299 for one reporting cycle

Expected plan: from €149/month. Future pricing is a hypothesis, not a payment commitment.

  • A customer-confirmed metric dictionary and weighting sheet
  • Supplier-by-supplier exception narratives linked to source rows
  • A QBR-ready pack that preserves missing-data and dispute flags
  • Direct access to the small Venthry team

Plain-English risk reversalNo long contract. If the supplied metrics cannot be defined consistently, we return a gap report instead of inventing a score.

Small first commitment

See if the pilot fits.

Reserve a nonbinding fit review. No card, operational files, credentials, or customer data belong in this form. We reply personally with the next safe step.

Questions, answered plainly

No hidden implementation story.

Do suppliers see the scorecard?+

Only if your team chooses to share it. The pilot is prepared for the buyer.

Can you combine different ERP exports?+

The pilot supports one agreed tabular schema. Custom integrations wait until repeatability is proven.

Does AI decide if a supplier is good or bad?+

No. Your team confirms metrics and weights; the system assembles evidence and highlights exceptions.

Why not use our procurement suite?+

If your existing suite already produces a trusted, repeatable QBR, use it. This pilot is for teams still rebuilding the pack manually.
