Scoring data from RFP / RFx projects is used in different ways by different organisations. It can be statistically manipulated, analysed or used to produce charts and reports.

New charting functionality has been added to SupplierSelect. This shows a horizontal bar chart which displays weighted scores by respondent for any point within the questionnaire: Section, Sub-Section or Question. If multiple scoring or weighting sets have been configured, these can be picked in the top drop down lists.

These charts can be viewed by selected the “Analysis” tab from the questionnaire browsing pages (reached by selected the questionnaire tree on the right after loading a project).
