Prewave Supplier Risk Management Platform

Prewave GmbH is an Austrian company based in Vienna that offers an AI-powered supplier risk management platform. It helps manufacturers see and respond to disruptions and compliance risks across multiple tiers of suppliers, and reports more than 150 enterprise customers, including Hilti, Kärcher, Volvo, Bosch and Renault Group.

The platform processes about 4.5 million signals a day in hundreds of languages to detect events such as strikes, insolvencies, natural disasters and sanctions affecting suppliers. Modules cover monitoring and alerting, supplier scoring and profiles, multi-tier visibility, financial impact, response and optimisation, and compliance for LkSG, CSDDD, EUDR and forced labour. Connectors link ERP data, partner data and AI assistants.

• Monitoring and alerting: real-time detection of supplier events from 4.5 million daily signals.
• Scoring and supplier profiles: risk scores and profiles for each supplier and site.
• Multi-tier visibility: maps sub-tier suppliers behind direct suppliers.
• Financial impact: links events to affected parts, revenue and production.
• Compliance and due diligence: workflows for LkSG, CSDDD, forced labour and EUDR filing into TRACES.
• Connectors: ERP data, data partners such as Coface and AI connectors for assistants and agents.

• An electronics or automotive parts maker in Vietnam can monitor its regional suppliers for disruptions such as typhoons and port congestion.
• A furniture or coffee exporter can prepare EUDR due diligence data for European buyers.
• A garment group can screen sub-tier suppliers for forced labour and ESG risks.

• Prewave says customers respond to disruptions 60% faster with 90% less to investigate.
• A Forrester TEI study commissioned by Prewave reports 95% less manual work and a 331% three-year ROI for a composite customer.
• Renault Group reports 30-40% lower crisis impact while managing more than 50 major crises in 12 months.
• One platform covers both supply risk and EU due diligence duties for exporters' customers.

Supply chain disruptions and new EU due diligence laws such as CSDDD and EUDR push European buyers to monitor suppliers in Asia continuously. Vietnamese exporters in textiles, electronics, furniture, coffee and rubber are increasingly asked by European customers to provide supplier data and evidence of compliance.
