A riskmethods Case Study
Belimo, a global leader in HVAC drive solutions, faced the challenge of preventing loss of sales and ensuring uninterrupted parts supply across multi‑tier supplier networks where more than three quarters of turnover is procured externally. To gain visibility into political, natural‑hazard and supplier‑related risks, Belimo engaged riskmethods and deployed the Supply Risk Network (including the Risk Radar module) to integrate risk data into its sourcing and SRM processes.
riskmethods’ solution continuously monitors countries, locations, suppliers and pre‑suppliers—scanning over 300,000 online sources—and can automate more than 90% of risk information procurement. Alerts and geocoded impact data are sent directly to purchasers, enabling preventive actions (e.g., inventory adjustments, alternate suppliers, insurance) and better contract decisions; as a result Belimo strengthened supplier stability, reduced risk exposure across tiers and safeguarded parts supply and sales.
