Abstract
In this paper, we report on the status of supplier rating, certification and
selection systems in the US Defense Aircraft Industry. Our findings result from a range
of information gathering activities over the past eighteen months including: Site visits to
companies; a one day review session at Lockheed Fort Worth Company on February 7,
1994 in which 10 companies made presentations of their systems; the study of
documents received from over a dozen companies pertaining to rating, certification and
selection systems; and, responses to the Survey of Supplier Systems and Relationships.
The purposes of this report are:
• To identify and review current practices with respect to supplier rating,
certification and selection systems based on our current state of knowledge;
• To discuss the extent to which these systems support the process of supplier
base optimization.
