Gainfront RiskMetrix is a modular, comprehensive risk analysis and profile solution.

RiskMetrix allows you to conduct survey-based risk analysis, integrate with third-party risk sources, evaluate financial risk, and keep compliance evidence on the same supplier master buyers and risk teams already use.

How RiskMetrix builds a supplier risk profile

RiskMetrix is modular. A risk team turns on the risk components it needs, and skips the rest. This keeps the setup simple for a small team and lets a larger team add components as its risk program grows.

Survey-based risk analysis starts with a questionnaire. The buyer sends the survey to a supplier, the supplier answers, and RiskMetrix scores the response against the buyer’s risk criteria. The score attaches to the supplier record, so a risk analyst sees it without leaving the profile.

Third-party risk data adds an outside view. RiskMetrix pulls signals from external risk sources and joins them to the same supplier record. A risk analyst does not need a separate login or a separate lookup to see this data.

Financial risk evaluation adds a solvency signal. RiskMetrix scores a supplier’s financial stability, so a buyer can spot a supplier under financial strain before it disrupts a contract.

Compliance evidence lives on the same profile too. A supplier’s certificates, licenses, and audit documents attach directly to its record, so a compliance reviewer finds them where they already look.

Because every signal lands on one supplier profile, a buyer and a risk team work from the same record. Neither has to reconcile data across separate systems, and neither has to wait on the other to pull a report before making a decision.
