Achieve robust and resilient supply chains
One platform. Two powerful capabilities to prevent, and respond to risk.
Know sooner. Decide faster. Act smarter.
Supply chain risk is no longer confined to the suppliers you buy from. A disruption can begin with a critical material, a processor several tiers upstream, a concentrated geography or a company you have never dealt with directly, then move through the supply chain until it affects products, production and revenue.
Sphera Supply Chain Risk Management brings external risk intelligence together with your suppliers, products, commodities and multi-tier dependencies. It helps teams understand what is changing, determine what matters to the business and coordinate the right response while there is still time to act.

Supply chain intelligence that goes deeper than the supplier
- Start with the question
- Turn risk intelligence into coordinated action
- Start with the products your business depends on
- Understand the materials behind your supply chain
You should be able to investigate supply chain risk from the question you need answered, whether that question starts with a supplier, a product, a geography or an emerging event.
With Conversational AI in Sphera SCRM, users can explore their SCRM intelligence through natural-language questions such as:
- Which suppliers need my attention today?
- Which of my product lines are most at risk?
- What changed for this supplier?
- Where do we have critical upstream dependencies?
Sphera’s MCP server also enables authorised users to access live SCRM risk intelligence through compatible enterprise AI environments. Existing SCRM permissions continue to govern what each user can access.
The Sphera Risk Response & Resolution Centre helps teams move from identifying a significant supplier or supply chain risk to deciding what needs to happen, who needs to act and whether the response is working. Prioritised risks are connected to mitigation actions, owners and progress in one place, with automated escalation helping prevent important issues from being overlooked.
Some of the most important supply-chain dependencies do not become obvious when you start with a list of suppliers.
Sphera can start with a critical product, decompose it into the components and materials it depends on, validate those relationships against the Tier 1 supplier base and trace the supply paths further upstream. Once mapped, those suppliers and supply paths can be monitored within SCRM.
This makes it possible to investigate questions such as which products are exposed, where several product lines depend on the same source and where apparent supplier diversification ultimately converges on a common upstream dependency.
A supplier can be financially healthy and operationally capable while still depending on a material that is becoming difficult to source.
Sphera Commodity Risk Tracker helps teams monitor risk at the commodity level alongside supplier and supply-chain intelligence. This provides additional context for critical-material exposure and helps organisations investigate risks that may begin further upstream than the suppliers they deal with directly.
Supply chain intelligence that goes deeper than the supplier
Built around your products
Trace critical components and materials through multi-tier supply paths so risk can be understood in the context of the products your business actually depends on.
Risk intelligence at scale
Combine global media monitoring, premium third-party data, proprietary intelligence and AI to identify relevant supplier and supply-chain risk from a very large volume of external information.
Business impact in context
Go beyond risk scores to understand which suppliers and dependencies matter to products, revenue, cost and reputation.
Intelligence across multiple levels
Investigate risk across individual suppliers, the wider portfolio, commodities and upstream dependencies rather than treating each supplier as an isolated entity.
From intelligence to response
Connect risk intelligence with assessment, mitigation, ownership and progress tracking so teams can manage issues through to resolution.
AI that works with your intelligence
Ask questions directly within SCRM through Conversational AI or securely access SCRM intelligence from compatible enterprise AI environments through MCP.
