Data Model
Overview and Logic
The risk assessment model measures the risk associated characteristics of a companys
supply chain based upon several dimensions (shown in Figure 2).
The six categories of risk in a supply network are:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.
After collection, the data are then organized into six Risk Categories, shown in Figure 3,
representing the different sources of potential supply chain risk.
The data are also organized by Risk Event, shown in Figure 4. These are the events
that might occur that would result in a supply chain disruption.
After the assessment data is applied to the Risk Events, they are then organized by Risk
Category, as shown in Figure 5.
The risk measurements, or indices, are calculated in two paths: Diagnostic and
Analytical.
Path one, the Diagnostic, is a simple roll up of assessment scores (indicators) into the
respective risk categories. A Risk Index is then created by averaging all the scores.
This Risk Index reflects the comparative level of risk in the supply chain as it is
constructed and managed at the time of the assessment. This measure is used to build
a ranking of suppliers and commodity groups in order to determine acceptable levels of
risk in the structure of the network itself.
Path two, the analytical mode, is slightly more complex. The assessment scores
(indicators) are rearranged according to Risk Event. A score is assigned to each event
based upon the summed actual indicator scores divided by the total possible score.
Each risk event has a probability representing the likelihood of that event occurring in a
certain product category. These are developed by expert sources within the company
that are knowledgeable in the specific supply chain being assessed. The probabilities
for each event are then multiplied by the event score producing a Risk Probability Index
(RPI). The average RPI for all events is then calculated. This number represents the
event associated risk potential of a disruption for the supplier assessed. Figure 6 shows
the overall, two path data flow.
Key Reports
The primary reporting view of the system is the risk wheel. The diagnostic view is
shown in Figure 7A. This view is available for any demographic and any level of drill
down. The center of the wheel is the Risk Index for the demographic (supplier, sub
category, commodity, etc.). In the second ring are the risk categories and the outer, the
risk indicators. Each item is color coded. Red (high risk), Light Red (medium risk),
Yellow (low risk), green (no risk). A description of each element of the wheel becomes
visible as the curser touches the area and the details are available by clicking on the
section of interest. This report can be used to understanding the base factors about the
supplier that are driving risk.
The Multi-Use Matrix (MUM) Chart Report is used to show the Risk Category Scores for
all (or some since the number of suppliers is selectable) of the suppliers in a commodity
group. It is also color coded to indicate high to no risk scores. This report is useful in
comparing suppliers within a group by risk category. The suppliers can also be rank
ordered using this report.
The Bar Chart Report shown in Figure 9 is used to show the ranking of each suppliers
Risk scores within a commodity group.
Other reports are available by downloading a data file and building a report using Excel
and additional data concerning the supplier or mitigation actions. Figure 11 is a typical
example of this type of report.
