Supplier Risk Performance System (SPRS) DLA is one of many agencies using the DoD Supplier Performance Risk System (SPRS). SPRS was previously called PPIRS-SR NG (Past Performance Information Retrieval System - Statistical Reporting Next Generation); the name was changed 1/28/18. It is imperative that vendors validate their performance data in SPRS. Vendors must register at the website https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/ for access to view their past performance scores and negative delivery and quality records affecting the scores. The SPRS User's Manual provides information concerning vendor scoring, negative & positive performance data utilized to calculate vendor scores, and the process in which to challenge discrepant performance data. The SPRS site has a number of user manuals found at https://www.sprs.csd.disa.mil/reference.htm. DLA is just a member of SPRS, not the owner of the system, so if you have any access issues please contact the SPRS Customer Support Desk: Phone: 207-438-1690 or email: webptsmh@navy.mil
