Prevent disruption with multi-tier supplier intelligence, customizable alerts, and integrated collaboration tools.

 

While obtaining reliable data about your direct suppliers is crucial, a substantial portion of supply chain risk and disruption comes from second- and third-tier suppliers you may not even be aware of. Uncovering these dependencies is critical to a more complete understanding of your overall risk exposure, which may expose potential bottlenecks, an over-reliance on single-source suppliers, localized labor issues, regulatory violations, and other possible issues.

Craft Supply Chain Risk Management helps you identify and mitigate risk from not just your suppliers, but your suppliers’ suppliers.

Continuously monitor supplier health and mitigate threats with AI-driven insights, prioritized alerts, and collaboration tools.

Procurement and supply chain professionals are often under-resourced yet responsible for mitigating risk across hundreds, if not thousands, of suppliers. The task of staying on top of supplier health becomes exponentially more difficult due to the many disparate, siloed tools used to assess supplier health across numerous risk categories. These solutions often overwhelm users with an abundance of alerts, making it challenging to proactively mitigate risks and identify potential disruptions before they happen.
Craft Supplier Risk Management makes it easy to assess and prioritize risk based on what’s most impactful to your organization, helping you proactively avoid costly disruptions to your supply chain.

Secure and protect your supply chain from cyber threats and avoid costly data breaches.

 

Understanding cybersecurity risk is crucial for preventing data breaches, operational disruptions, reputational damage, compliance violations, and financial losses. This becomes increasingly challenging due to the constantly evolving nature of cyber threats, complex and interconnected supplier networks, diverse cybersecurity standards, dependencies on third parties, and limited visibility into supplier practices.

Avoid supply chain instability and disruption by understanding the financial health of your suppliers.

 

Failure to recognize and mitigate financial instability in your supply chain can result in disruption from canceled orders and delays, to increased costs and reputational damage. Getting an accurate understanding of your suppliers’ health, especially if you are working with private companies, can be time-consuming and challenging. Often the information available only provides a historical snapshot, not an ongoing pulse on financial health, leaving you vulnerable to changes in your suppliers’ financial health.

Craft helps you monitor the financial health of every company in your supply chain, even your suppliers’ suppliers.
