Sourcing Route · Stage 4 of 5

Lookout: know first when your supply chain is at risk

A map of your Italian and European suppliers, a risk score for each, daily alerts and a back-up already identified for every critical point.

Your Italian supply chain, watched every dayStage 4 of 5

A supplier in financial trouble, a strike at a port, a new EU rule on a material you import: from abroad, you often learn about it when the shipment is already late. Lookout watches your Italian and European supply base for you. We map suppliers and routes, score the risk of each one, monitor them every day and identify alternatives in advance. When something changes, you know early and you already have a plan.
