Supplier Overall Grade

What makes up Supplier GPA?Supplier GPA is a weighted GPA, comprised of 75% quality and 25% delivery.Delivery GPA is based OTTP (on time to original promise date), % of PO Lines Acknowledged, and % of PO lines acknowledged within 72 hoursQuality GPA is an aggregate of Issues, SRIs, Containments, Source Inspection, and eCerts.

Example:Supplier GPA = 75%(Quality) + 25%(Delivery)Supplier GPA = 75%(4.00) + 25%(2.00)Supplier GPA = 3.50

Calculations – Issue and SRI Score

• Vendor caused issues only– SRIs that do not result in a vendor caused issue are not included

• Example:– Issues = 196 defective / 399 received  51% Issue score– SRI = 37 defective / 399 received  91% SRI score

 

Note: Quantities in yield formula are based on individual piece parts, not on part number or PO line basis. Units of measure are taken into consideration.

Calculations – Containment Score• PO line basis, 6 month average• For each month: 

– Suppliers will receive a score of 0 if the PO line was closed that month, regardless of when containment was initiated.

– Containments are linked to PO lines through vendor caused issue tickets

• Excludes canceled containments• Example: 

– 4 mo. (100%) + 2 mo. (0%) = 67% Containment Score for June

Calculations – Source Inspection Score• PO line basis, 6 month summary• For each PO line Source Inspected in past 6 months:

– No fails = 1 point– Soft fail (and no hard fails) = 0.5 points– Any hard fails = 0 points

• Sum up all points and divide by total # of PO lines inspected• Example:

– 2.5 points / 5 PO lines = 50% Source Inspection score

59.8%

Note: We do not count hard/soft fails that are SpaceX-caused against Supplier in Scorecard. Examples: SpaceX sold material to supplier but did not provide material certifications, kitted material to a Work Order but left 10a/10b on PO line, or a problem with PO.

Appendix Spreadsheets• Separate attachment of raw data driving each score

– Each attachment should allow you to recreate the scores you see on scorecard, using the calculations outlined in this guide.

• Data captures the last 6 months• Spreadsheets included: 

– Issues and SRIs – although different scores, these are based on the same data set, so the data is combined. SRI Flag column tells you if it’s an SRI or not. The top row “Receipt Qty” summarizes count of all parts received over past 6 months, to be used as the denominator. 

– Containment – shows a list of any containments in the past 6 months. If there are multiple “PO lines close dates” falling in the same month, that month is given a score of 0. October will get the same score whether there is 1 containment or 5 containments in October.

– Source Inspection – shows all PO lines inspected in past 6 months. Used to recreate Source Inspection score.

– Source Inspection Detailed –  This is additional detail that is more granular that “Source Inspection”. Shows all Source Inspection events in the last 6 months, plus rejection codes. This data can be used by Supplier to analyze issues and performance trends.

– eCerts – shows all PO lines with eCert submitted in past 6 months.– OTTP – shows all PO lines closed within last 6 months. (If a PO line has only been partially 

delivered, it will not be in the data and therefore not included in scorecard.)– Acknowledgement –  Shows all PO Lines released within the last 6 months.– Corrective actions – these are not part of score calculations and is reference only.

Calculation Nuances 

• GPA calculation– Quality Score and Delivery score are converted to a GPA before 

being averaged to get the overall Supplier GPA.• Calculation is: .75 (4.0) + .25 (3.0) = 3.75 B• Calculation is not: .75 (91%) + .25 (89%) = 90.5 A

• Issues and SRIs– If yield is negative, we round to 0%. This happens (rarely) when 

more parts are written on issue than are received.• Since we are looking at a 6 month period, the above situation is rare.

– Units are accounted for in calculations. If we receive both “feet” and “each” units from a Supplier, we calculate separate yield scores for each unit.

Calculation Nuances

• Source Inspection– Score is calculated on a PO line basis. This is because for every 

failing Source Inspection we must have a corresponding passing inspection, meaning using % defective would be inaccurate.

– We use the date of the latest Source Inspection.– A PO line may be passing in 1 month’s scorecard, but failing in a 

later month’s scorecard. Example:• January scorecard shows this PO line as passing = 1 point• March scorecard shows this PO line as failing = 0 points

Calculation Nuances 

• Containment– Containment score is an average of 6 numbers, a score for each of the 

past 6 months.• Each month is all or nothing. Whether there is 1 containment or 10 

containments, that month gets a 0%.– The month in which the PO line is closed is the month that will get a 0 if 

there is a containment. This means the metric is lagging. Example:• PO line is closed in January• A containment is initiated in April with that PO line in scope

January score = 100% April score = 83%

Even though containment was initiated in April, the score for January was affected, since that is when the PO line was closed.
