Our flagship practice
Supply chain intelligence
Understand the risks behind your suppliers.
We examine vendors, components and ownership relationships across supply tiers. Our assessments explain the evidence behind a risk judgment, what remains uncertain and the options for addressing it.

Ownership and control
Who is behind the supplier? Examine ownership relationships and indicators of foreign control or influence.
Evidence and uncertainty
What supports the assessment? Explain what is known, what is inferred and what remains unresolved.
What you receive
Analysis you can
make decisions with.
A finding needs more than a conclusion. It needs a clear explanation of the evidence, the uncertainty and the choices available.
01
THE JUDGMENT
Risk statements
A clear judgment on a vendor, component, entity, or supply tier, written so a decision maker can act on it without reading the underlying research.
02
THE EVIDENCE
Risk explanations
The reasoning behind the judgment: what the assessment rests on, which sources carried weight, how confident the analyst is, and what new information would change the conclusion.
03
THE OPTIONS
Mitigation recommendations
Options with their tradeoffs stated, rather than a single directive. The customer owns the decision; the analysis is there to make it an informed one.
The judgment stays with the analyst.
We weigh the available sources, explain our reasoning and carry uncertainty into the assessment.
