Supply chain visibility

You can't manage supply chain risk if you can't see it.

90% of ESG impact sits in the supply chain, so most sustainability risk lives beyond direct operations and controls (PwC)

43% of corporations still lack visibility beyond Tier 1, leaving deeper supplier risks unmonitored until problems emerge (KPMG)

22% more organizations gained Tier 2 visibility year over year, yet large multi-tier blind spots still remain (McKinsey & Co)

83% of organizations do not analyze beyond Tier 3, even though risk often intensifies in lower-tier supplier networks (BCI, 2024)

Most businesses know their Tier 1 suppliers. Very few know what’s happening beyond them, and that’s precisely where risk accumulates. Labour violations, environmental failures, and compliance gaps don’t announce themselves; they surface in audit findings, regulatory investigations, and media reports long after the damage is done.

Supply chain visibility means knowing who your suppliers are, where they operate, and how they conduct their business across every tier, beyond self-assessments and desk research. Yet as of 2024, only 57% of corporations had visibility beyond Tier 1 (KPMG).

The organisations closing these gaps aren’t just protecting themselves. They’re building supply chains their customers can vouch for and their regulators can verify.
