The Panjiva Rating is the most reliable indicator of supplier quality.
Here's why:
1) Our methodology was developed in consultation with buyers like you.
The Panjiva Rating reflects what we heard repeatedly from buyers: it's best to work with a legitimate company that has a track record of pleasing customers and strong management processes, as verified by third parties. We are constantly improving our Panjiva Rating methodology, so contact us if you have suggestions.
2) Panjiva leverages the best data sources.
Panjiva only uses data sources that are judged by us (and our customers) to be of the highest quality. And we always tell you exactly where our data comes from, so you can draw your own conclusions. Have concerns about a data source—or suggestions for a new one? Contact us.
3) Panjiva verifies information provided by suppliers and buyers.
When a supplier claims to have a certificate, a member of the Panjiva team checks with the certifying organization to ensure that the certificate is legitimate. And when a buyer reviews a supplier, a member of the Panjiva team examines shipping documents to ensure that the buyer has done business with the reviewed supplier. These verification processes are costly, but it's a small price to pay for having data that's reliable.
4) Suppliers cannot pay for higher ratings, period.
Panjiva generates revenue by charging the buyers we serve, so you can count on us to provide objective analysis of supplier quality.
5) The Panjiva Team stands behind Panjiva Ratings.
