About event weighting
Event weighting is a method of scoring suppliers who respond to events and event lines. Event weighting can provide additional information to assist in the award decision beyond who has the lowest price.
Reviewing event weighting scores
Access Response Analysis by selecting the View link in the Responses column from the tabs on the Buyer Page.
For events that have weighting, total scores will display on both the header and line forms for Response Analysis. The scores are based on a hypothetical perfect score of 100. An alert will display for the supplier score or scores which are the highest. There is a link from each suppliers score to a Score Details form, which shows how much of the total score comes from each weighting factor, and what the maximum score is for each weighting factor.
Weighting can be changed on events that are undergoing response analysis, so the buyer can perform "what if" scenarios with weighting while doing analysis. Weighting percents are allowed to be changed, so the maximum points may not be 100.
