Supplier risk

Skill panaversity/agentfactory-business-plugins/supply-chain/skills/supplier-risk

Monitors ongoing risk signals and produces risk briefs for known vendors. Activate for: supplier risk monitoring, vendor risk alert, supply risk, risk brief, supplier financial risk, credit rating downgrade, supplier operational risk, supplier compliance risk, geopolitical risk, Tier 2 risk, sub-supplier disruption, supply disruption, risk monitor, risk rating change, risk alert, distress signal, supplier news, country risk, supply chain resilience, CVA, administration, insolvency. USE THIS when a KNOWN risk event has occurred (credit downgrade, financial distress, disruption, regulatory action) and you need to assess its impact. NOT for: classifying or scoring a vendor (use vendor-assessment), vendor onboarding or approval (use vendor-assessment), vendor Kraljic classification (use vendor-assessment), invoice processing (use invoice-reconciliation), carrier performance (use logistics-brief).From its SKILL.md

UNIVERSAL RULES (apply to every risk task)

  • NEVER classify a sole-source supplier as low risk based on spend alone -- always assess operational dependency separately from spend volume
  • NEVER accept a vendor risk assessment that contains fabricated financial data -- label all estimates and flag where primary data is unavailable
  • ALWAYS flag when a vendor's Tier 2 sub-supplier shows distress signals that could affect Tier 1 supply continuity
  • ALWAYS include specific recommended actions with deadlines in every output -- observations without actions are not acceptable

MANDATORY OUTPUT HEADER

TASK:          [e.g. Supplier Risk Brief -- Vendor X]
VENDOR TIER:   [Strategic / Tactical / Commodity / Bottleneck / Unclassified]
CONFIGURATION: [Loaded: supply-chain.local.md / Not configured]
DATA SOURCES:  [Web Search / Creditsafe / ERP / Manual input]

RISK MONITORING WORKFLOW

Five Risk Dimensions

DIMENSION 1: FINANCIAL RISK Monitor for:

  • Revenue and profitability trend (from annual filings or reported results)
  • Credit rating: any downgrade from Creditsafe / D&B / Experian
  • Restructuring announcements, CVA, administration proceedings
  • DSO trend: lengthening = cash pressure on the vendor
  • Ownership changes: acquisition, MBO, private equity involvement
  • Key customer losses announced
  • Late filing of statutory accounts (itself a distress signal)

Sources: Companies House / SECP / equivalent registry; Creditsafe / D&B; trade press; web search MCP

Risk levels: RED HIGH: Restructuring / CVA / credit rating CCC or below / accounts overdue AMBER MEDIUM: Revenue decline >15% YoY; margin below 3%; rating downgrade 1 notch GREEN LOW: Stable financials; positive trend; adequate credit rating

DIMENSION 2: OPERATIONAL RISK Monitor from ERP data (updated continuously):

  • OTD rate: 13-week rolling average + trend direction
  • Quality rejection rate: 13-week rolling average + trend direction
  • Lead time variance: increasing variance = capacity or process strain
  • Missed delivery pattern: same day of week? Same product? (capacity signals)
  • Partial deliveries increasing? (material shortage signal)

Risk levels: RED HIGH: OTD < configured critical threshold; quality > critical threshold AMBER MEDIUM: Declining trend even if above threshold; partial deliveries increasing GREEN LOW: Stable; above threshold; no adverse trend

DIMENSION 3: REGULATORY & COMPLIANCE RISK Monitor for:

  • Certification expiry (ISO, sector-specific, data protection)
  • Regulatory enforcement action (sector regulators, HSE, ICO)
  • Environmental incidents (prosecution, fine, site closure risk)
  • Trade compliance issues (export licence violations, customs irregularities)
  • Sanctions list changes affecting the vendor or their key sub-suppliers

Risk levels: RED HIGH: Active sanctions match; enforcement action; certification lapsed AMBER MEDIUM: Certification expiring within 90 days; regulatory warning issued GREEN LOW: All certifications current; no adverse regulatory signals

DIMENSION 4: GEOPOLITICAL RISK Monitor for:

  • Political instability in vendor's operating country
  • Trade restrictions, tariffs, or export controls affecting category
  • Currency volatility affecting contract economics
  • Infrastructure disruption (port strikes, border closures, natural disaster)
  • Conflict affecting supply routes

Sources: web search MCP; UK FCO travel advisories; trade association bulletins

Risk levels: RED HIGH: Active disruption to supply route or vendor operations AMBER MEDIUM: Elevated country risk; currency movement >5% since contract GREEN LOW: Stable environment; no material currency exposure

DIMENSION 5: TIER 2 / SUB-SUPPLIER RISK Monitor for:

  • Financial distress at critical Tier 2 suppliers
  • Tier 2 supplier capacity constraints affecting Tier 1 output
  • Single-geography concentration at Tier 2 level
  • Tier 2 supplier relationship with Tier 1 deteriorating

Requirement: Tier 2 mapping must exist for all Tier 1 Strategic vendors. If mapping does not exist: flag as UNASSESSED RISK; request Tier 2 data from Tier 1 supplier as priority action.

Risk Rating Change Rules

ESCALATE overall rating if ANY dimension reaches RED ELEVATE to MEDIUM-HIGH if TWO dimensions reach AMBER simultaneously REDUCE rating only after confirmed remediation (not just vendor assurance)

RISK BRIEF OUTPUT FORMAT

SUPPLIER RISK BRIEF: [Vendor Name]
Assessment date: [Date] | Next scheduled review: [Date]
================================================================
OVERALL RISK RATING: [GREEN LOW / AMBER MEDIUM / AMBER MEDIUM-HIGH / RED HIGH / RED CRITICAL]
Change since last review: [No change / Elevated / Reduced]

FINANCIAL RISK:   [GREEN / AMBER / RED] [Rating]
[Findings and signals with sources and dates]

OPERATIONAL RISK: [GREEN / AMBER / RED] [Rating]
[OTD trend, quality trend, lead time data from ERP]

COMPLIANCE RISK:  [GREEN / AMBER / RED] [Rating]
[Certification status, regulatory findings]

GEOPOLITICAL RISK:[GREEN / AMBER / RED] [Rating]
[Country, currency, route findings]

TIER 2 RISK:      [GREEN / AMBER / RED / NOT MAPPED]
[Sub-supplier findings or mapping gap flag]

RECOMMENDED ACTIONS -- RANKED BY URGENCY
RED [IMMEDIATE -- this week]: [Action] -- [Owner]
AMBER [SHORT-TERM -- 30 days]: [Action] -- [Owner]
GREEN [PLANNED -- 90 days]:    [Action] -- [Owner]

NEVER DO THESE

  • NEVER rate a vendor as LOW risk in any dimension without verified data -- absence of negative data does not equal low risk; label as UNASSESSED if no data
  • NEVER rely on vendor self-assessment alone for financial risk -- always cross-reference with independent sources
  • NEVER downgrade a risk rating based on vendor assurance alone -- require evidence (updated accounts, certification renewal, remediation proof)
  • NEVER omit the Tier 2 risk section -- mark as NOT MAPPED if absent, not LOW RISK
  • NEVER wait for the scheduled review to act on a HOT signal -- HOT signals override the review schedule

ALL OUTPUTS REQUIRE REVIEW BY A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL BEFORE USE IN BUSINESS DECISIONS.
