Gain data-driven visibility into your automotive supply chain with Sentrisk

Automotive supply chains are among the most complex and globally distributed in the world. With more than 30,000 individual components1 often crossing borders multiple times, levies can accumulate rapidly, adding up to a potential average of US$3,0002 in cost per vehicle.
 

Without full visibility into these flows, many manufacturers are exposed to escalating risks, supply chain disruptions and rising costs. A smarter way to manage these challenges is through Sentrisk, which gives automotive companies a clear, data-driven view of their supplier networks and impact of levies, enabling proactive steps to strengthen resilience.

Navigating supply chain complexity in a volatile landscape

Automotive supply chains are deep, multi-tiered networks. As supply chains extend upstream, visibility into potential vulnerabilities diminishes.
 

Supplier tier

Description

Example

Tier 1

Suppliers that provide finished parts or systems directly to the automaker (OEM).

Brake assemblies, seats, wiring harnesses

Tier 2

Suppliers that deliver components or materials to Tier 1 suppliers.

Brake pads, seat foam, wiring connectors

Tier 3

Suppliers of raw materials or subcomponents used by Tier 2 suppliers.

Steel, plastic resins, copper wire


This layered structure makes it difficult to gain full visibility across the network. Geopolitical uncertainty adds another layer of complexity, introducing sudden cost fluctuations and access issues through shifting trade policies.
 

Overreliance on a limited number of suppliers or regions further elevates risk, especially when supply chain disruptions or policy changes occur without warning. Without the right tools to model future scenarios, many manufacturers find themselves reacting to crises rather than anticipating them.
