supplier-portfolio-management

Assess each supplier's criticality and concentration share, then compare dual-sourcing or alternative-supplier options using risk-adjusted expected value. The Skill ranks options against hard constraints like cash and capacity, and recommends the smallest action portfolio that clears them.

Track supplier quality, on-time delivery, concentration, and total cost, each with a baseline, target, actual, trend, confidence, and owner. Leading indicators are monitored at the shortest useful cadence, with stop and escalation thresholds defined upfront.

Total cost is calculated using domain formulas from the referenced supply chain playbook and the active industry profile, showing units, period, definition, source, and uncertainty. Risk-adjusted value subtracts implementation cost and expected downside loss from probability-weighted incremental value.

Escalation is required for money movement, binding commitments, pricing changes, production or safety changes, and actions above budget or risk limits. Regulated, legal, tax, or safety interpretations route to qualified specialists or the accountable executive.

It retrieves permitted facts from memory, derives only formula-backed values, and asks one concise batch for material missing facts. It never invents benchmarks, costs, capacities, or probabilities, and stops if a missing fact could reverse the decision.
