Vendor evaluation scorecard framework. Referenced by vendor-comparator and evaluation-designer agents when systematically comparing and evaluating vendors. Used for 'vendor evaluation', 'supplier comparison', 'bid evaluation' requests. Note: posting bid announcements and executing contracts are out of scope.
Enhances the vendor evaluation capabilities of vendor-comparator / evaluation-designer agents.
| Category | Weight (Default) | Sub-items |
|---|---|---|
| Technical Fit | 30% | Requirement fulfillment, technical capability, innovation |
| Price Competitiveness | 25% | Unit price, TCO, price structure transparency |
| Track Record/Reliability | 20% | Similar projects, references, financial stability |
| Service/Support | 15% | SLA, response speed, training, maintenance |
| Strategic Fit | 10% | Vision alignment, long-term partnership, innovation roadmap |
Technical score: Absolute evaluation (1-5 points per item)
Price score: Relative evaluation
Price score formula (lowest-price basis):
Score = (Lowest bid / Vendor's bid) × Maximum points
Example:
Vendor A $100K → (100/100) × 5 = 5.0 points
Vendor B $120K → (100/120) × 5 = 4.17 points
Vendor C $150K → (100/150) × 5 = 3.33 points
