Benefits of Meercat Risk Navigator

Meercat Risk Navigator is an extension module for Meercat Supplier Assessment designedspecifically to monitor, evaluate, document and measure risks in the Supply Chain. You can use the same application to evaluate risks, perform supplier audits and to keep contracts, certificates and other supplier information up to date and available to all who need it.

Meercat gives you all the tools you need to manage risk across your supply network - in a quick and easy way, without IT related delays and cost overruns - so that YOU can concentrate on the business of risk management and not the administration of it.

An unprecedented level of transparency in your supply chain

Unlike our competitors, we believe that merely monitoring your direct suppliers is not  enough to give you complete protection from risks. Therefore Meercat allows you to  monitor 2nd and 3rd tier suppliers. You can either do the monitoring and data entry on your own, or you can ask your suppliers to do it for you! (Pro & Enterprise versions)

• Based on hands-on experience in designing and implementing supply chain risk management processes for large international corporations (telecoms, medical technology, manufacturing, mining).
• Direct supplier involvement –suppliers self-report risks, add evidence and confirm countermeasures.
• Meercat covers the complete supply chain:retail points and franchisees, distributors and both direct and indirect suppliers –all of them can be audited in the system.
• Evaluation criteria and risk list
  We provide our clients with a structured, ready to use list of 200+ evaluation questions and pre-defined risk-trees to kick-start the implementation.
• Flexibility: manage downstream risks, too!
  Thanks to the flexibility of our tool, you can monitor not only the risks of your supply base but also those of your distributors and retail points at the same time.

Features

• Definable risk tree and risk scores.
• Supplier risk mapping, risk evaluation and risk self-reports.
• Risk response measures (ERAS/ACAT) with follow-up and evidence.
• Risk matrix (supply-chain & supplier level)

Lower your risk management costs

Risk management is a time and resource consuming job. It's just a fact of life and we cannot change it. We can, however, make sure that the your employees carry as little  of this burden as possible.

• Sophisticated reports available to all the key  stakeholders limit the amount of time needed to create management summaries.
• Last, but not least, you can ask your suppliers to provide the bulk of information directly on-line! Your employees will spend their limited time on actual evaluation of  risks, rather than on typing-in the information and administrative tasks. (Pro & Enterprise versions)
