What the Scorecard Measures
The scorecard evaluates your brand across eight dimensions that determine whether a retailer launch or ongoing relationship runs smoothly or bleeds margin through preventable operational failures.
Product Data
GTIN accuracy, GS1 compliance, attribute completeness across your product master.
Syndication
Whether your product content reaches retailers through GDSN or direct portals without errors.
EDI & Integration
Purchase orders, invoices, ASNs: the electronic documents that keep fulfillment moving.
Fulfillment
On-time, in-full performance and the gap between your metrics and your retailer’s scorecard.
Financial
Deduction management, trade spend tracking, and whether you can reconcile what you owe versus what’s been taken.
Production
Capacity planning, demand alignment, and co-packer readiness for the volume a new retailer requires.
Compliance
FSMA 204 traceability, labeling requirements, and retailer-specific standards like Walmart or Whole Foods.
Team & Process
Whether the people and workflows exist to sustain what the data and systems require.
The useful result is a dimension in the red that wasn’t on your list. Finding it after the retailer does costs fines, chargebacks, and revoked shelf space.
