Supply Chain Risk Assessment

Strengthening the resilience of supply chains

To create more resilient supply chains, clear strategies are required. Our supply chain risk assessment enables us to identify risks at an early stage and identify targeted measures to increase resilience.

In a globalized economy, companies are exposed to a variety of risks that can compromise the stability of their supply chains. Natural disasters, economic crises and political instability are just a few examples that can lead to disruptions in the supply chain. In such situations, it is crucial that companies can react quickly and efficiently to changes.

We offer a supply chain risk assessment approach to analyze supply networks in detail. Using a standardized data analysis, we collect relevant KPIs and create a comprehensive catalog of measures aimed at increasing resilience within your supply network. The supply chain risk assessment covers the following aspects:

 

  • KPI development: We define key performance indicators (KPIs) that quantify the resilience of your supply chain.
  • Data analysis: Using a KPI dashboard and a risk analysis, we examine your supply chain structure.
  • Recommended course of action: Based on the insights gained, we develop customized recommendations for adapting your supply chain.
  • Workshop integration: We integrate the results in workshops and jointly develop risk mitigation strategies with you.
  • Continuous support: In follow-up checks, the implementation can be reviewed and the effectiveness of the measures evaluated.

The supply chain risk assessment enables the analysis of supply networks and generates a catalog of measures to strengthen resilience based on a standardized data analysis.
