Aon announced the launch of a new AI-powered supply chain risk consulting offering, which builds upon Aon’s existing supply chain diagnostics and leverages predictive analytics to identify emerging risks and support businesses in proactively managing complex and interconnected supply chain risks with greater clarity, speed and foresight.

According to the company, using AI and advanced data modelling, the solution analyses frequency and severity of supply chain events over time from more than 80,000 sources in over 200 countries. This helps businesses uncover both primary and secondary risks, including traditionally difficult-to-measure exposures such as supplier concentration and logistics bottlenecks, which can significantly affect operational stability. By providing a holistic view of the supply chain risk landscape, Aon can empower clients to make better informed decisions, enhancing their ability to withstand disruptions and ensure business continuity.

“With growing geopolitical volatility, business decision makers remain challenged by hidden vulnerabilities embedded in their supply chains”, said Richard Waterer, global risk consulting leader for Aon. “Our new capabilities are designed to surface those risks, so our clients can make faster, more informed decisions and build greater resilience across their operations”, he added.

“The pace and complexity of supply chain disruptions demand a new approach”, said Joe Galusha, head of risk consulting, North America, at Aon. “By integrating advanced AI analytics with Aon’s deep industry expertise, we’re going beyond identifying risks to enable clients to anticipate disruptions, respond with agility and maintain continuity even in the face of rapid change”, Joe Galusha emphasized.
