Interpreting The Results

First, Asiadepot reviewed all of the data returned to see if each company met all the required elements.
* Company B was unable to supply the element ¨Aggregate Value of Vehicles. This was a non-imperative element so no disqualification applied.
* Company A was not able to provide one of the lifestyle elements, Company B was unable to provide two, and Company C could provide none. All lifestyle elements were weighted with a 1 (non-imperative data) so no disqualification applied.
Looking at the scores alone, Companies A and C are virtually tied. However, while Company C had the highest accuracy for its elements, it also had the lowest match rate at 72% (a full 20% below Company A) and did not provide any of the lifestyle elements.
Company A, while having a lower accuracy rating, had the highest match rate (a high number at 92%), the highest number of elements returned per matched record, the highest value in data usability, provided a data dictionary, and had rankings of 2 in data freshness, delivery time and customer service.
The question for Asiadepot at this time is whether to choose Company Aˇs high quality scores and somewhat lower accuracy or Company Cˇs lower quality scores and higher accuracy.
Asiadepot decided it would have to look at the prices before making this decision. Quotes were reviewed for the full 3 million record file enhancement. Asiadepot wished to process this file quarterly.
