The weather has wreaked havoc on your commodity this season. What now?
Without Helios
Before Helios, this wouldn’t be discovered until your supplier reached out and told you.
Now, you have to scramble to find more product elsewhere. Not only that, but your competitors are doing the same thing, so the price of the commodity has been pushed up dramatically.
You end up securing more product, but at twice the price you were expecting. With the last minute changes, you were only able to procure about 75% of the stock you needed.
With Helios
Your Helios dashboard flagged a key export region as high risk due to poor weather conditions.
You take a look at other regions and find two that are low-risk. You reach out to your suppliers in both. One supplier is expecting a higher yield than normal and promises you additional stock since you’re the first to reach out.
While the rest of the industry is scrambling to procure quality stock. You have secured 100% of your product and stayed within your budget.
Track Force Majeure events
Our dashboard tracks force majeure events, like earthquakes, floods, and tsunamis, globally and in real-time - empowering businesses to respond faster and mitigate the fall-out more effectively.
