SCAIR® Case Study

Supply Chain Exposure Study for NHS Supplier of Medically Critical Medicines

Natural hazard risk profiles in client supply chain. Illustration from SCAIR dashboard.

The Requirement

A supplier of medically critical medicines to the NHS, was looking to map every stage of its long and complex supply chain, right from raw materials through to its wholesalers.

The Solution

We were able to create an in-depth picture of our client’s supply chain from using basic data points such as:

  • A list of direct suppliers
  • Point-in-time stock holdings
  • Annual revenue by product

We used the above information as well as discussions with our client to agree on recovery assumptions. We were then able to create a vivid picture of our client’s supply chain exposure. We were able to :

  • Model total downstream stock protecting each supply node (RW through to FP)
  • Estimate mitigated revenue exposures by location to major outages
  • Overlay natural hazard risk profiles
  • Build a picture of regulatory non-compliance history
  • Uncover upstream dependencies in our client’s supply chain by working with our partners to understand geopolitical and natural hazard risks.

 

 

 

The Results

Our client was able to get a clear picture of every major vulnerability in their supply chain from supply node stock to revenue exposures by location; natural hazards and geopolitical risks to non-compliance histories. This detailed data enabled our client to accurately identify, track and manage its supply chain exposure and create a robust supply chain risk mitigation strategy.
