Understanding Supplier Defect Rate (S.D.R) in Warehousing & Procurement
In warehousing and procurement, Supplier Defect Rate (S.D.R) is a key metric that measures the proportion of faulty or substandard products from a supplier. It's calculated by dividing defective items by total units received, usually expressed per million. π
Why does it matter?
A high S.D.R can lead to increased returns, higher storage costs, and operational inefficiencies. By tracking this metric, you can improve product quality, reduce waste, and enhance customer satisfaction. β
Optimize your S.D.R for a smoother, more efficient supply chain and better overall operations! π
