Questions about this use case

Is supplier quality management software the same as an SQMS?

For many teams, the terms overlap. The useful distinction is scope: the workflow should connect supplier qualification, audit evidence, quality findings, corrective action, risk, performance, and approved supplier status in one reviewable trail.

Should supplier quality management software be separate from procurement?

It should stay connected to procurement, but the quality record needs its own evidence, findings, actions, and approval logic. Jodoo can link supplier quality workflows to procurement and vendor management records.

Where should a supplier quality team start?

Start with the strongest control gap: receiving defects if issues are missed, qualification if suppliers are approved without evidence, audits if findings disappear, corrective actions if follow-up is weak, or scorecards if performance decisions are hard to explain.
