Scoring and certification

This section explains

How scores are assigned to each question. How the scores are aggregated to level 2 SCOR processes. How the scores are aggregated to level 1 processes. What is the basis of awarding a certificate

Key concepts in the scoring process

All questions will not be applicable to all organisations being audited. Hence, in cases where a particular SCOR Level 3 process or question(s) does not apply, the question(s) should be marked ‘Not Relevant (NR)’ – this will be ignored during the scoring process.

All questions are not equally important. Some are more important to supply chain and collaboration and some are not so important. e.g. ‘Collaborative Planning’ is very important while ‘Transporter Selection’ is not so important. Hence, each of the questions have weights assigned to them. The weights are: Very important – 3 Normal importance – 2 Not so important – 1 It is important to ensure that the weights do not impact other questions beyond the sub-section of which they are part of. The weights for each question will be provided in the scorecard worksheet which accompanies the Technical Reference document.

Certification criteria

A certificate of eSCM capability will be awarded by the Singapore eSCM Council to any company who undertakes an audit and achieves at least 133 in any SCOR Level 1 process (ie. Plan, Source, Make, Deliver or Return). The certificate confers on the holder the right to display the Singapore eSCM council logo for a period of up to two years from the date of the audit.

If a company fails to reach at least 133 in any SCOR Level 1 process, they will still receive a detailed scorecard and report, but they will not receive a certificate.
