Supply chain failures don’t announce themselves. Monitor subcontractor and supplier risk across every construction project in real time, so you can act before issues become costly disruptions.
Risk Radar is an enterprise construction risk management tool that delivers unrivalled insight into the financial health of subcontractors and suppliers to help you identify and mitigate supply chain risk. Risk Radar’s powerful supply chain analysis and supplier risk assessments combine information from a broad range of data sources, allowing you to extract the information you need to minimise risks in supply chain management.
Monitor risk in real time
Track subcontractors’ financial health and project exposure, so supply chain risks are flagged before they impact delivery.
AI-powered trend analysis
Visualise financial risk trajectories and benchmark suppliers against peers instantly to mitigate financial risk.
Exclusive subcontractor intelligence
Access verified financial data not available through standard reporting channels.
Segment by project or portfolio
Manage risk by region, project, framework or supplier group, ideal for tiered supply chain oversight.
Control access across teams
Enable procurement, commercial and compliance teams to view the insights they need without compromising data security.
Integrated regulatory insights

Reduce financial exposure with unrivalled visibility of suppliers’ financial health, even for companies below the £15m turnover audit threshold
Risk Radar is built for organisations that need deeper visibility into construction supply chain risk not just surface-level credit checks.
Tier 1 & Tier 2 Contractors
Gain real-time oversight of subcontractor financial health across live projects and frameworks. Identify early warning signs, protect programme delivery and avoid costly last-minute replacements.
Procurement & Supply Chain Directors
Strengthen due diligence with verified financial, regulatory and network risk intelligence. Make informed subcontractor selection decisions backed by construction-specific data.
Commercial & Project Leads
Monitor exposure to financial risk in construction projects on an individual basis. Anticipate supplier instability before it impacts cash flow, resourcing or timelines.
Risk, Compliance & Governance Teams
Reduce reputational exposure by tracking HSE, environmental, data protection and tribunal events alongside financial distress indicators – supply chain compliance monitoring all in one place.
Public Sector & Framework Managers
Ensure suppliers meet financial resilience requirements and demonstrate robust risk oversight to stakeholders, auditors and boards to minimise construction financial risk across your supply chain.
Network distress monitoring
See beyond individual suppliers and understand risk across your wider trading network.
Includes live winding-up petition alerts, enabling you to act quickly when formal insolvency proceedings begin.
This gives procurement and commercial teams critical time to assess exposure, protect programme delivery and mitigate financial impact.
Contagion risk report
Are you aware of the vulnerabilities hiding in your extended supply chain?
Financial instability rarely affects just one company. Risk can spread through trading relationships — impacting subcontractors who rely on at-risk main contractors.
The Contagion Risk Report enables you to:
Expanded regulatory & reputational risk reports
Risk Radar now integrates enhanced compliance and reputational intelligence to support governance, ESG and procurement due diligence requirements.
These reports help you identify regulatory breaches, unethical practices and reputational red flags all alongside financial risk indicators:
Deliberate Tax Defaulters (HMRC)
Access HMRC’s published list of deliberate tax defaulters to ensure your supply chain meets the compliance standards your business requires.
National Minimum Wage Naming Scheme
Flag suppliers that have been publicly named by the government for failing to pay the National Minimum Wage, protecting your ethical sourcing standards.
Construction Court Decisions
Review relevant court decisions involving contractors and subcontractors in your supply chain to assess legal and financial risk.
CMA (Competition & Markets Authority)
Monitor your supply chain for CMA investigations and decisions that may indicate anti-competitive behaviour or significant business disruption.
Politically Exposed Persons (PEPs)
Identify individuals in your supply chain who hold or have held prominent public positions, and assess the associated compliance risks.
Sanctions & Watchlist
Screen suppliers and subcontractors against global sanctions lists and watchlists to protect your business from regulatory exposure.
Adverse Media
Surface negative news coverage linked to your suppliers, helping you identify reputational risks before they reflect on your organisation.
Tax Avoidance Schemes & Litigation
Identify subcontractors involved in tax avoidance schemes or active tax-related litigation that could signal financial or compliance risk.
“We are strong advocates of Risk Radar, and we’re building up some good data and examples now of Trading Partners that were identified as potentially moving towards distress. We are using Risk Radar scores and the data that’s available on a daily basis both for initial subcontractor selection, and tracking all the way to the commercial leads as we hit site.”
Trevor Harlock, Subcontract Supply Chain Manager – Vinci Construction
Risk Radar is the only construction risk control tool of its type that uses AI to combine and contextualise proprietary data from publicly available sources.
Embedded visualisation tools enable users to draw out insights in a way that is useful and relevant – answering specific queries and leaving nothing to chance.
The result is a more comprehensive view of suppliers and subcontractors than ever before – meaning financial and reputational risks can be identified and resolved before they cause disruption or delay.
Flexible and accessible:
Risk Radar has the built-in flexibility to deliver precisely the insight required – showing construction financial risk linked to a particular portfolio, project, region or supplier depending on your needs.
Quick and easy to use:
Procurement teams often spend too much time gathering the information they need from various sources to assess their supply chain. Risk Radar puts everything you need to build resilience in your supply chain at your fingertips.
Reliable and up to date:
This innovative construction risk assessment tool provides a deeper granularity of data that you can be sure is both accurate and up to date – so you can make business-critical decisions with confidence.
Risk Radar uses supply chain analysis data from numerous sources to deliver unique supply chain risk assessments and insights to main contractors and buyers. To protect you from supply chain risk, our partnership with Company Watch allows us to overlay construction specific data sets with Company Watch’s financial risk data models and the information held in its Aphrodite director matching tool, to provide a unique, up-to-date position.
