Successful supplier relationships make Avient
the preferred provider of specialized
materials, services, and solutions.
Supplier approval status shall be
updated based on the results of the supplier assessment and on-site audit, if performed.
3.2 Performance Evaluation
Avient utilizes the vendor scorecard system (and associated Supplier Performance Report) which
records and tracks supplier performance related to delivery, product quality and purchase order
(PO) requirements.
If a supplier is designated as medium or high risk,
improvement actions may involve – but will not be limited to – QF-05 completion, an on-site
audit request, and/or QMS development.
3.3 Supplier On-Site Audit
When deemed necessary, Avient will perform on-site supplier audits to verify suppliers’
compliance with this SQM.
