VDR — Vendor Data Requirements

A document defining the engineering information, documentation and deliverables that vendors are required to provide during a project.

Definition

Vendor Data Requirements (VDR) is a controlled document that specifies the engineering documentation, technical information, certificates, drawings, manuals, data sheets and other deliverables that vendors must provide throughout the procurement, manufacture, inspection, testing and handover phases of a project.

Why It Matters

Vendor Data Requirements define the engineering information and documentation that vendors must deliver throughout a project.

In Practice

Vendor Data Requirements establish the required documentation, submission schedule, review process and deliverable formats necessary to support engineering, quality assurance, commissioning and lifecycle information management.

Common Misuse

Vendor Data Requirements define the documentation that vendors are required to provide, whereas a Vendor Document Register records and tracks those deliverables throughout the project lifecycle.
