  • Patent number: 6915234
    Abstract: Monitoring performance data includes establishing a reporting period during which a performance update is scheduled to be received at a database. The performance update includes provider data gathered from a provider, and describes a service provided to a client by the provider. The database is accessed to determine whether the database has received the performance update during the reporting period. A provider data rating is generated from the performance update. Performance data including client data gathered from the client is received, where the performance data describes the service, and a client data rating is generated from the performance data. The client data rating and the provider data rating are reported.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 6687560
    Abstract: Processing performance data includes receiving performance data comprising quantitative data gathered according to at least one metric. The quantitative data is evaluated according to the at least one metric to generate at least one quantitative data rating. Performance data comprising client data gathered from a client is received and evaluated to generate at least one client data rating. Performance data comprising provider data gathered from a provider is received and evaluated to generate at least one provider data rating. The at least one quantitative data rating, the at least one client data rating, and the at least one provider data rating are reported.

  • Publication number: 20030061006
    Abstract: Evaluating performance data includes accessing performance data that includes measurements describing a performance attribute. The following is repeated until a ranking is determined, starting from a highest rating and ending with a lowest rating: A rating is selected. The performance attribute is ranked according to the selected rating if at least a target percentage of the measurements is associated with the selected rating or with a higher rating, in order to determine the ranking to yield a performance attribute evaluation.
