Supplier risk

Is your key supplier at risk?

Concentration on few suppliers, increasing lead times, declining financial health. Kestevo monitors weak signals and alerts you before a risk becomes a crisis.

  • Concentration, lead time and financial health monitored continuously
  • Weak signals surfaced weeks before a stoppage, not after
  • Exposure map by product category and geography

We're opening the private pilot to a limited number of companies. When we open the next slot, we'll reach out with an initial assessment of your situation.

Supplier risk intelligence

Your supplier is failing. You don't know it yet.

Concentration, late deliveries, weak signals in contracts, a supplier going quiet. Kestevo lines them up before they become a production stop.

A failing supplier leaves clues across seven channels before they stop replying.
Example 01
  • ERPCarpenterie Lombarde: 60% of your steel Scope 3
  • ERPLead time creeping: 3 to 7 days over 2 months
  • Credit alertCarpenterie Lombarde: rating down one notch
  • EmailISO 9001 certification: lapsed, not renewed
  • SDIInvoices: +9% unit price in 6 months
Alert | COO

On paper everything still looks fine. But the early signals line up: your single-source steel supplier is starting to wobble.

Suggested action

Qualify a second steel supplier now, while you still have months, not weeks.

Example 02
  • ERPComponent C-204: 95% from Metal Sud
  • ERPMetal Sud lead time: 45 days (28 day standard)
  • Excel2024 supplier map: 0 qualified alternatives for C-204
  • SDIMetal Sud invoices: +12% unit price YoY
Alert | Purchasing

You're trapped: one supplier, rising prices, zero ready alternatives. Metal Sud knows it.

Suggested action

Start qualifying 2 European C-204 suppliers within 60 days. Cut concentration to 70%.

How Kestevo works

Kestevo tracks concentration, lead-time drift, price trend and the external credit and certification signals you receive for each supplier, and flags a supplier when several weak signals line up, before any one of them looks alarming.

A supplier doesn't stop working overnight. The signals come first.
