PPM Low Commodity Scoring Rules
• BASE Score: A Supplier’s score in each commodity is initially
determined from the commodity scoring table based on the
performance vs. the Q1 industry commodity PPM level for the
lowest scoring commodity. The result of this is shown as the Base
Score.
• Applied Score (on commodity detail): The Base score may be
adjusted due to phase in limits or other scoring limits and is
reported as the Applied Score. (See Phase in table on next page)
• Q1 Scoring Detail Page Base and Applied Score: The Base
Score shown on the Q1 Scoring Detail page is from the lowest
scoring commodity. The Applied Score is the Base Score modified
by the adjustments caused (limited) by other site metrics.

commodity PPM exceeds 2 times its Q1 Industry commodity PPM it
is evaluated for a -250 penalty based on the count of individual
months of the site commodity PPM exceeding twice its Q1 Industry
Commodity PPM and scored as shown below:
