Sub-tier risk on,active jobs and PO value.

Prequalification is project-based; distress surfaces when equipment fails to arrive. Supplier Risk monitors financial and safety signals for subs and rental vendors active on your jobs, linked to open PO and contract value, while project executives decide backups or bond claims.

Document-level examples buyers in this industry run through Supplier Risk.

  • Rental house safety signal

    Safety news ties to multiple job POs. Mitigation suggests alternate rental vendors on contract.

How it works

Same pipeline as the live Supplier Risk module.

  1. 1

    Ingest signals

    Collect cyber, financial, ESG, and operational events with severity and age from your monitoring sources and internal performance data.

  2. 2

    Score continuously

    Recompute risk score from open signal severity (with time decay), on-time delivery, quality, category concentration, and country adjustments.

  3. 3

    Map exposure

    Attach each supplier to spend, contracts, invoices on hold, and open PO lines so incidents show business impact immediately.

  4. 4

    Recommend mitigations

    Generate actionable steps — incident reports, backup sourcing, portal suspension — based on signal type and exposure.

  5. 5

    Track through closure

    Move signals from open to mitigating to closed; block or reactivate suppliers with logged reasons.
