DGL Supplier Quality, Nonconformance & SCAR Management System — Professional Excel Tool
Take control of supplier quality, nonconformances, corrective actions and supplier performance in one connected professional Excel system.
The DGL Supplier Quality, Nonconformance & SCAR Management System is designed for manufacturing, quality, procurement and supply chain teams that need a structured way to identify supplier problems, control nonconforming materials, issue corrective actions and measure supplier performance.

Suppliers can automatically be classified as:
A — Preferred
B — Approved
C — Conditional
D — Escalate
COST OF POOR SUPPLIER QUALITY
Supplier quality problems have financial consequences.
The system includes a dedicated module for tracking:
• Sorting Costs
• Reinspection Costs

EXECUTIVE SUPPLIER QUALITY DASHBOARD
The automated dashboard provides management visibility into:
• Total Suppliers

The system helps management answer critical questions:
Which suppliers are generating the most defects?
Which suppliers have the highest PPM?
Which supplier problems are high risk?
Which NCRs remain unresolved?
Which SCARs are overdue?
Have suppliers identified verified root causes?
Have corrective actions actually been implemented?
Were corrective actions effective?
Are defects repeating?
Which suppliers should be preferred, monitored, conditionally approved or escalated?
How much are supplier-quality problems costing the business?
The result is a connected supplier-quality management environment that transforms incoming inspection data and supplier defects into structured corrective action, measurable supplier performance and management visibility.
