I did my first Inspection Report for these people on Thursday 6/29, I submitted the report the same day. Easy job.

Today, I was emailed a Vendor Performance Report that to me says nothing but the particulars (adress, time assigned, type of report etc.). Does anyone know why we get these reports from the company? Does it mean the Inspection Report was reviewed and accepted and will be paid?

Please advise. I have never received anything similar to this before. Thanks.

We get them like every 2-4 weeks. I believe they do it to show us how we are graded. I got one today also. The last one I got was 06/20. My TAT went way up....but they still call me with work. No worries.

Where is the grade or performance evaluated? I do not see anything. Please advise.

I got one too. I've only done two orders for them. I like it. I wish the other companies would do that so we'd know how we are rated.

TAT= "turn around time" is your rating

Yes... TAT is all important with RELS. If you have an order that can't be done, make absolutely sure it gets on hold.

I didn't and Jan '05 the computer threw me off auto-assign. I had an TAT of like 5-6 days. It took some begging to get it fixed.

Rels will not penalize you if you're just on time, but I do their orders early when I can and keep a pretty low TAT (this time it was higher, all interiors 2.19 days in May I was 1.67)

It seems ridiculous and no they aren't picky about half days, but the lowest number puts you at the top of the list for these oh so easy orders.

By the way, beware... Rel's has tightened their standards and are stickin' to them...check to see if you have good comps before going out to take pics. I had a condo in an 8 unit complex, no comps from the same complex. I had a comp from another complex on the same street. NO GO, if they don't have one from the same complex they want an appraisal... same with all the rules we usually ignore on their email.
