CABBewertung

CABBewertung is a term used in German-language contexts to denote a structured evaluation or rating process carried out by an organization referred to by the initials CAB. The exact meaning of CAB can vary by organization, but CABBewertung generally denotes a formal assessment of the suitability, quality, risk, or compliance of a product, service, supplier, or project.

The process typically involves defining evaluation criteria, collecting data, conducting audits or tests, scoring or ranking, and producing a rating or certificate. Scoring can follow a numeric scale (for example 0–100) or a categorical system (such as A–E). Criteria are often weighted to reflect strategic priorities, and the final rating is used to support decision making, risk management, or regulatory compliance.

Applications of CABBewertung span multiple sectors, including manufacturing, information technology, and public procurement. It is commonly employed to compare suppliers, assess product quality, or verify project readiness. While some CABs align their criteria with international standards (for example ISO family standards) or local regulations, there is no single universal standard for CABBewertung, and implementations are organization-specific.

Critiques point to variability between CABs, reliance on data quality, and the potential for overemphasis on numerical scores at the expense of nuanced judgment. Proponents emphasize transparency, repeatability, and accountability in procurement and governance processes.
