Concentration risk, financial-health signals, and operational dependencies — surfaced before they bite production.

Tier-2 supplier failure won’t surprise your line.
Supply Chain Guard is AI supply-chain risk monitoring for European manufacturers and distributors. We track supplier exposure, geopolitical signal, and tier-2 dependency risk against your operational baseline — surfacing the failure modes that don’t show up on your invoice ledger until they’ve already cost you a quarter. EU-resident from day one. Currently in closed launch-partner cohort.

The risk that doesn’t show up on your invoice ledger.
Geopolitical signal
Sanctions changes, port disruptions, energy-price shocks, and cross-border policy shifts mapped against your active SKUs and shipping lanes.
Tier-2 dependencies
The risk you don’t see is in your supplier’s suppliers. SCG models the tier-2 graph and warns when a single upstream failure could ripple to your line.
