Supplier risk map
This map puts a consumer-electronics maker's supply chain on one screen: assembly plants, component suppliers, raw materials and ports, each colored by tier. Every place carries its lead time, risk rating, certifications, share of spend and whether a part is single-sourced. Filter to High risk or single-source parts and the weak points stand out, like four critical sites within 80 km of Shenzhen. Share the link with finance and the CEO, and everyone looks at the same picture.
A sample map: its businesses and people are invented.

What it’s worth
When the board asks "what happens if Shenzhen closes", you answer in the meeting, not after a week of spreadsheets. Seeing risk and concentration on one map helps you move orders before a shortage costs you sales.
What to notice in this map
- Four tiers, each in its own color on a dark base
- Risk rating and lead time on every row of the list
- Filters for risk, lead time, certification and single-source parts
- High-risk places with a concrete reason: one port, one fab, a flood-prone site
- Shenzhen, Dongguan and Yantian clustered to show regional concentration
