From Exposure To Action.
Understanding where risk lives is only half the work. The other half is knowing what to do about it and having the confidence to act before disruptions compound and options narrow.
RISK-ACES turns facility-level exposure into prioritized, defensible mitigation decisions. So your teams can reduce cost, protect operations, and move forward with clarity.
RISK-ACES goes beyond visibility by mapping availability, costs, environmental pressures, and sensitivity across every relevant facility in your value chain — creating a risk fingerprint that shows where exposure is concentrated, what's driving it, and which sites require attention first.
Mitigation with RISK-ACES is not a list of generic actions. It is a structured, evidence-backed process that helps organizations:
Reduce financial exposure
Protect operational continuity
Improve long-term capital efficiency
Strengthen confidence with boards, investors, and insurers
Expert-Vetted, Not Static
The Risk-ACES system is continuously refined through Accelerated Risk Trials (XRT). Expert-led exercises that test assumptions, challenge scenarios, and improve scoring and action logic based on real-world disruption pathways.
Risk Reduction Across Timeframes
-
When disruption hits, the question isn't what happened. It's which of your facilities is affected, how exposed they are, and what needs to happen in the next few hours.
RISK-ACES connects real-time events directly to your highest-risk sites and ACES drivers, giving teams immediate clarity on what's affected, why it matters, and where to act first.
-
Conditions shift faster than sourcing strategies. RISK-ACES gives procurement and operations teams the facility-level comparisons they need to identify rising exposure, evaluate near-term alternatives, and rebalance sourcing or production without overcorrecting or disrupting performance.
-
Some risks don't trigger a crisis: they quietly erode resilience over months. RISK-ACES surfaces structurally high-risk and highly sensitive sites early, supporting contingency planning, supplier engagement, and dependency reduction before concentration becomes a liability.
-
The facilities and supplier relationships you invest in today will define your exposure in 2035 and beyond. RISK-ACES integrates forward-looking climate and environmental scenarios through 2050 — aligned with TCFD and IFRS frameworks — so long-term footprint and investment decisions are grounded in where risk is heading, not where it has been.
Risk reduction in complex value chains requires more than data—it requires experience.

RISK-ACES is built on years of hands-on work by the Fosterra team. Supporting organizations as they prepare for, respond to, and recover from real-world disruption. Expert judgment, facility-level insight, and continuous real-world testing combine to deliver risk reduction that is practical, defensible, and aligned with how decisions are actually made.
