The Trigger
You define when the agent should activate. When conditions are met, it starts working automatically.
- Scheduled run: 5 business days before any vendor business review (VBR)
- Contract milestone: 60 days before contract renewal
- Performance threshold: Fill rate drops below 92% for two consecutive weeks
360° View
The agent opens a tailored dashboard consolidating data from all your systems.
- Fill rate trend — weekly fill rate versus contracted target (e.g., 96%)
- OTIF performance — delivery reliability by distribution center
- Quality metrics — defect rate, returns attributed to vendor, QA failures
Automated Analysis
The agent follows a structured analysis flow, combining checks with exploratory reasoning.
- Contract compliance check — Compare actual metrics against each SLA. Flag any below threshold.
- Trend analysis — Identify if performance is improving, stable, or deteriorating over 6-12 months.
- Cost of non-compliance — Calculate chargebacks plus estimated lost sales from fill rate gaps.
Actionable Output
After analysis, the agent creates a human-friendly report with everything your team needs.
- Executive summary — Vendor health assessment with overall score (A/B/C/D)
- Performance scorecard — Fill rate, OTIF, quality, cost with red/yellow/green status
- Contract gap analysis — Specific SLAs missed and by how much
Delivery
Reports are sent automatically via email or accessed directly in Veezoo.
