Supply-R Allows Greater Responsiveness and Increased Reliability of Supply Chains Across Different Industry and Service Sectors

São Paulo, September 14, 2020 – Bureau Veritas Group, a global leader in Testing, Inspection, and Certification (TIC), has developed a tool to address the new challenges companies face regarding risk management related to supply chain disruptions. In the midst of the global crisis imposed by the pandemic in 2020, many companies faced difficulties in maintaining the continuity of their operations due to interruptions in the supply of products or services.

“With economic globalization, supply chains have become larger and more complex, with suppliers spread all over the world, making it difficult to monitor and manage risks of participants and the supply chain as a whole. Our goal is to support companies by providing useful and objective information that allows for the identification of disruption risks in the supply chain and enables timely decision-making to ensure the continuity of their operations,” explains Roberto Vidal, director of the Industrial Division at Bureau Veritas.”

Supply-R is a digital platform that allows full visibility at the level of detail necessary to support better business decisions and minimize risks. The solution has a customizable modular structure based on assessments that identify the resilience and responsiveness to crises of critical suppliers participating in the supply chain. Critical elements assessed include technical capability, vulnerabilities to business continuity, HSE vulnerabilities, information security and data integrity, supply chain security, good logistics practices, and inventory control.
