Performance advisory · maintenance, repair & service

Your clients are running a scorecard on you.
You probably don't know your number.

Every work order, every survey, every bid you submit feeds into a performance score your clients use to decide who gets more work — and who gets cut. Most vendors never see it. We show it to you. Then we fix it.

Every engagement priced on this page. No discovery call required to see a number.

STATUS: Volume reduction — reassign category to secondary vendor
If any of this sounds familiar

Volume doesn't disappear overnight. It erodes — quietly, work order by work order.

Most vendors find out they had a problem only after the account is already gone. By then the decision was made three review cycles ago.

"The calls got lighter. Nobody told us why."

"We're working just as hard. The account still isn't growing."

"They said everything was great. Then the work dried up."

"We've cut our rates to compete. It's not working."

None of this is random. It happens because a number crossed a line your client had set — and you never knew the line existed. vendorlogix shows you the line. Then we show you how to get on the right side of it.

Find out where you actually stand
The scorecard

This is what decides your future with every client — every single month.

Seven measurements pulled from your work order data and resident surveys. Reviewed on a cadence. Used to decide who gets next month's volume. The vendors who know these numbers own their markets. The ones who don't are always wondering why the work slowed down.

WORK ORDERS COMPLETED

Your throughput and capacity

Clients look at this to gauge whether you can absorb more work — or whether you're already at your limit. Flat or declining volume tells a story before you've said a word.

CYCLE TIME

Days from assignment to close

Every day above threshold is another day your client considers who else they could call. This is the single most common reason vendors lose accounts — not price, not relationships. The number.

SURVEY SCORE

What residents say after the visit

Low survey scores don't stay in a survey. They go into the monthly performance reports that determine your account standing. One tech with a poor attitude is a number problem, not a people problem.

FIRST-TIME FIX

Solved on the first trip

When your tech comes back for the same issue, that's a quality event logged in their system. They're counting — even if no one has said anything to you yet. And they will eventually.

CALLBACKS

Return trips within 30 days

Clients don't see a bad day. They see a pattern. A pattern changes what work gets assigned to you — and how quickly you go from preferred to secondary.

SCOPE & PRICING

Whether your billing holds up

Above-market charges don't just cost money. They raise questions about every other invoice you've submitted. One audit finding can reopen your entire billing history.

DOCUMENTATION

Photos, notes, and scope closeout

If it wasn't documented at closeout, it didn't happen. That's how disputes, chargebacks, and warranty decisions go against the vendor — every single time.

How it works

Three stages. One outcome: you own your market position.

We don't hand you a report and walk away. We start with the truth, build what the numbers need to move, and stay at the table while it runs.

01
We show you the truth.

We pull your data, run your scorecard, and show you exactly where you stand against the thresholds your clients are actually enforcing. No softening. No guessing. Your number, your gaps, your priority order — ranked by what's hurting your composite score the most. Most vendors find something they didn't expect. All of them say it was worth knowing.

02
We build what the numbers need to move.

Tech training standards. Performance monitoring systems. Bid and proposal strategy. Scope discipline. Growth positioning. We build the operational infrastructure that moves the score — and keeps it there when your volume grows. This is where most vendors realize the problem wasn't their techs. It was the absence of a system.

03
We stay at the table while it runs.

A monthly scorecard review, active coaching on the numbers that are moving and the ones that aren't, and direct intelligence on where your clients are shifting their priorities — before it shows up in your dispatch volume. You never show up to a client review not knowing your number. You always know it first.

Services & pricing

Why this works

I didn't watch vendors lose accounts. I removed them.

For 25 years, it was my job to pull the reporting, read the numbers, and cut the B players. I set the thresholds. I built the scoring systems. I decided what the scorecard looked like — and when a vendor's numbers said they weren't performing, I made the call. That was the job. Six markets, thousands of work orders, and a clear picture of exactly what separates the vendors who keep the account from the ones who lose it.

Most of the vendors I removed had no idea what I was looking at. They thought the relationship was solid. They thought the work was good. And some of it was — but the number said something different, and the number was what mattered. They never saw the scorecard I was holding.

Now that job is on the other side. Same stats. Same recipe. Different direction. I spent 25 years learning exactly what wins — because I was the one keeping score. vendorlogix exists to take those same metrics and use them to build A players. I know what the threshold is. I know how to get there. And I know what it looks like when you do.

Certification program VENDORLOGIX · CERTIFIED VENDOR SERVICE VENDOR STANDARD vl CERTIFIED

The mark your clients look for.
The standard most vendors never reach.

It opens doors before you say a word. Most vendors can't earn it. The ones who do stop having to explain themselves.

earned · not bought · verified annually
To earn it
  • Pass all seven KPI thresholds in the readiness audit
  • Clear the scope and pricing audit at 85% or above
  • Complete the vendorlogix tech training standard
  • Sustain threshold performance for 90 consecutive days
Once certified
  • Carry the certification mark on every proposal and vehicle
  • Listed in the certified vendor directory by trade and market
  • Clients can verify your standing directly — no middleman
  • Annual re-verification keeps the credential current and defensible
01

The mark

A credential your clients recognize as a documented performance standard — not a self-reported claim. It goes on your proposals, website, and vehicles before the conversation even starts.

02

The directory

Listed by trade and market, visible to clients looking for certified vendors. Your competitors won't be there. When a client searches your category, you're the result that comes with a record behind it.

03

Annual standing

Re-verified every 12 months against real performance data — not self-reported, not paperwork. The credential stays current as long as your numbers do. Let it slip and it comes off.

Questions

The ones vendors actually ask.

We're already performing well. Is this still relevant?

Then let's confirm it with the actual scorecard. Every vendor who came in confident found at least one number they didn't expect. A validated score builds on what's working. An unexpected one — the kind you only find out about when the volume drops — is worth significantly more to know before that happens.

We're a smaller operation. Is this built for us?

The vendors who told themselves they were too small to worry about these numbers are the ones who found out the hard way. The cohort program is built for exactly where you are, starting at $3,000. The cost of losing an account you didn't know was at risk is considerably more than the cost of finding out it was.

How quickly do the numbers actually move?

Documentation and survey scores move in 30–60 days — these are behavioral changes and they show results fast. Cycle time and first-time fix take a full quarter to register in the data. Certification eligibility is typically 90–120 days of consistent execution. Every vendor we have worked with improved their composite score. Some needed more time. None stayed where they started.

Why is your pricing published on the website?

Because the alternative is a discovery call designed to figure out what you'll tolerate before revealing a number. You should be able to decide whether this is worth a conversation before you get on the phone. We'd rather talk to vendors who already know what it costs and already decided yes.

Do you work with our competitors?

Not in the same trade and market simultaneously. Category and territory exclusivity is written into every retainer agreement. If we're working with someone who competes directly with you in your market, we tell you — and you decide whether to proceed.

What if we can't hit the certification threshold?

That's what the advisory is for. Certification is the end of the process, not the start. You don't begin a certification attempt — you begin an audit and a roadmap, and certification eligibility follows from sustained improvement. No vendor who followed the roadmap consistently has failed to become eligible. The ones who didn't follow through didn't get there. That's by design.

Start here

Tell us where you are. We'll tell you what it's going to take.

Fill in what you can — your trade, your markets, what volume you're running, and what problem you're trying to solve. We'll come back within one business day with whether an audit makes sense and what it would cover.

If it doesn't make sense for where you are right now, we'll tell you that straight.
