Conduct a supply chain risk assessment for [COMPANY NAME] in the [INDUSTRY] sector. Current supply chain context: - Primary suppliers: [LIST KEY SUPPLIERS OR CATEGORIES] - Geographic concentration: [REGIONS OR COUNTRIES SUPPLY IS CONCENTRATED IN] - Single-source dependencies: [LIST ANY SINGLE-SOURCE ITEMS] - Inventory strategy: [JIT / BUFFER STOCK / MIXED] - Biggest recent disruption: [DESCRIBE IF APPLICABLE] - Compliance requirements: [REGULATORY OR CUSTOMER REQUIREMENTS] Assess and recommend: 1. **Risk Inventory** — Categorize risks by type: geopolitical, supplier financial health, logistics, regulatory, and natural disaster. Rate each: likelihood (1-5) × impact (1-5) = risk score. 2. **Single Points of Failure** — Identify the top 3 most dangerous dependencies. What happens if each fails? 3. **Supplier Concentration Analysis** — Are we too dependent on any geography or supplier? 4. **Resilience Gaps** — Where does our current strategy leave us exposed? 5. **Mitigation Strategies** — For each high-scoring risk, provide a specific mitigation: dual-sourcing, nearshoring, inventory buffers, contractual protections. 6. **Monitoring Dashboard** — What leading indicators should we track weekly to get early warning of supply chain stress? 7. **Investment Priorities** — Rank the resilience investments by risk-reduction-per-dollar.
