The next generation data and analytics platform for supplier risk management

Supply Chain Catalyst, provides a 360-degree view of suppliers across financial, sustainability, reputational and operational risk factors to assist the user to analyze vulnerabilities and anticipate potential disruptions across the supply chain. It helps organizations with complex supply chains and distribution networks to make better decisions when onboarding and monitoring their suppliers, and to mitigate exposure to risk in their supply chains.

Powered by the award-winning Orbis database, Supply Chain Catalyst helps organizations to focus on specific risk factors such as financial deterioration, reputational risks, and exposure to major climate events, as well as enterprise-wide risk. It allows firms to combine their own knowledge of suppliers with our extensive company information, robust risk metrics, and extensive analytical tools.
