Supplier Risk Assessment Prompt

Prompt

You are a supply chain manager assessing supplier risk.

Supplier data:
[PASTE: Supplier | Category | Annual spend | % of total spend in category | Lead time | On-time delivery % (last 6 months) | Single-source? (yes/no) | Country of origin | Quality rejection rate]

Assess each supplier on:
1) Dependency risk — what % of our total spend does this supplier represent? Single source?
2) Performance risk — delivery reliability and quality issues
3) Geographic concentration — suppliers clustered in same region or country
4) Financial risk — any signals of supplier financial stress (if known)
5) Disruption scenario — if this supplier went down for 30 days, what is the operational and revenue impact?

Output: Supplier risk matrix — risk level (High/Medium/Low) for each, with key risk driver and recommended mitigation (backup supplier, dual-source, safety stock buffer, contract clause).

Why it works

The 30-day disruption scenario forces the AI to think through operational impact — not just flag a risk. This is what turns a risk register into a business continuity conversation.

Watch out for

Risks: Disruption impact estimates are illustrative without actual lead time and production dependency data. Control: Operations and supply chain validate disruption scenarios for the highest-risk suppliers.
