Design a Supplier Comparison Dashboard

Supplier Comparison Dashboard in Excel, ideal for evaluating multiple suppliers based on key performance indicators (KPIs). You can either create this manually or I can provide you with an Excel file (let me know if you want that).

Dashboard Layout

📊 Sheet 1: Raw Data (Name it: Supplier_Data)

Supplier Name Quality Score Cost Delivery Time (Days) Compliance Score Capacity Location Overall Rating
Supplier A 90 $10 3 95 High India =AVERAGE(…)
Supplier B 85 $12 5 88 Medium China =AVERAGE(…)
Supplier C 92 $11 2 97 High Vietnam =AVERAGE(…)

Tip: Use formulas like =AVERAGE, =RANK, and =IF for scoring

📈 Sheet 2: Dashboard (Name it: Dashboard)

📌 Top View Summary

  • Dropdown Menu: Select Supplier (using Data Validation or a slicer)

  • Overall Rating: Large number (linked to selection)

  • Traffic Light/Status Bar: Based on score (Green = 90+, Yellow = 70–89, Red = <70)

📊 Supplier KPI Comparison (Charts)

  1. Bar Chart: Quality Score vs. Delivery Time

  2. Radar Chart: Quality, Cost, Compliance, Capacity

  3. Column Chart: Cost Comparison

  4. Map Chart: Supplier Locations (optional using Excel 365)

  5. Trendline (Optional): Past 3 months of performance if historical data is available

📌 Conditional Formatting Suggestions

KPI Rule Format
Quality Score >90 Green background
Delivery Time >5 Red text
Compliance Score <85 Yellow background
  • Supplier Region

  • Capacity

  • Score Range (Above 90, 80–89, etc.)

🧮 Formula Tips

  • =AVERAGE(B2, D2, E2) for overall score

  • =RANK(G2, G$2:G$10) for rank among suppliers

  • =IF(E2<85, "Review", "OK") for compliance alert

✅ Optional Features

  • Macro Button: To refresh data or export summary as PDF

  • Drop-downs for custom weighting of KPIs

  • Score Weighting Table: Assign weights to KPIs like this:

KPI Weight (%)
Quality Score 30
Cost 25
Delivery Time 20
Compliance 15
Capacity 10

Then compute weighted average score accordingly.
