Reshoring & Tariff Strategy worked example

Supplier Network Resilience Score with disruption severity if this supplier fails of 15 score: a worked example

Push disruption severity if this supplier fails up to 15 score and the picture changes. This example computes every intermediate figure at that operating point. Use it when supplier network resilience in reshoring and tariff strategy needs a defensible ranking against other reshoring and tariff strategy risks for the next review.

The inputs for this scenario

  • Disruption severity if this supplier fails (1-10): 15 score (raised for this scenario; the documented default is 6)
  • Likelihood of a supply disruption (1-10): 4 score (unchanged)
  • Difficulty detecting the disruption early (1-10): 3 score (unchanged)

Working through the calculation

  • Applying the documented formula (Supplier network resilience risk score = supplier network resilience severity score × supplier network resilience occurrence score × supplier network resilience detection score) to the inputs above produces each figure below.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 8.15 score for supplier network resilience risk score, the number this scenario is built around.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 15 score for supplier network resilience severity score.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 4 score for supplier network resilience occurrence score.
  • At this operating point the engine returns 3 score for supplier network resilience detection score.

How this compares with the baseline

  • Against the tool's baseline example, where disruption severity if this supplier fails sits at 6 score and the headline result is 4.55 score, this scenario comes in 79.12% above the baseline at 8.15 score.
  • It multiplies severity, occurrence, and detection ratings (each 1-10) into a single supplier resilience risk priority number. The value of this scenario is the size of the gap it exposes: that gap, priced out over a year, is the budget you can justify spending to close it.

Results at a glance

  • Supplier network resilience risk score: 8.15 score (headline result)
