Mitigate supplier disruptions

A supplier failure is no longer a mystery that costs days — it is a solved equation before the line comes to a halt.

In the product

My Tier 1 supplier has unexpectedly failed. Which products and customers are affected? How much revenue is at stake? What are my immediate options for action?

Component KB-2201 (HV wiring harness) is affected, in use at customers OEM North and OEM South.

The specific consequences:

  • Line L-32 is blocked from day 9 (inventory coverage of KB-2201)
  • R87 open orders affected - €14.6 million revenue at risk
  • A KB-2201 has no secondary source - highest risk

Recommendation: Activate secondary source SUB-5588 - lead time 6 days, covers 70% of demand. For the remaining 30%, agree partial deliveries with customers.
