Your risks are not generic

A single-source dependency means something different in manufacturing than in financial services. Sustain builds its rules, benchmarks and worked examples per sector.

Transition risk, asset exposure, resource dependency, environmental compliance, operational continuity.

In development

Financial services

Financed emissions, portfolio climate exposure, counterparty concentration, governance risk.

In development

Technology

Data centre energy, hardware supply chains, water use, workforce and governance exposure.

In development

Retail and consumer

Supplier tiers, sourcing regions, packaging and waste, labour standards deep in the chain.

One supplier stops, and the line stops

Manufacturers carry concentration risk. It stays off the balance sheet until the day it lands on it. Sustain prices it before then.

Depth you cannot see

Most manufacturers know their tier-one suppliers well. Below that, visibility drops, and the single points of failure sit there. A component with one qualified supplier, a 14-week lead time and a single region of origin is an operational risk, a continuity risk and an ESG risk at the same time, and it is carries no price as any of them.

  • Inputs with one qualified supplier and long requalification times
  • Geographic concentration invisible until a port closes

In this sector

  • Single-source dependency, weighted by lead time and requalification cost
  • Regional concentration across suppliers and sub-suppliers
  • Energy and emissions intensity per site against sector norms
  • Water dependency in constrained regions
  • Waste and material circularity exposure
  • Supplier standards risk in the deeper tiers

The ones that apply to you

  • CSRD and ESRS, where you remain in scope after the 2026 Omnibus
  • CSDDD due diligence, for the largest groups from 2029
  • CBAM, for carbon-intensive imported inputs
  • National environmental permits and reporting
  • Customer-driven requirements from in-scope buyers, which apply whether or not you report

Sustain is not a compliance filing tool. It tells you what your position is worth, whichever of these applies.
