About the Client
Defence Equipment and Support (DE&S) is a body of the UK Ministry of Defence responsible to manage a range of defense equipment and service purchases for the Royal Navy, British Army, and Royal Air Force.
Challenge
Avoid unexpected or unmitigated supply chain failures
In response to the UK government’s Integrated Review of Security, Defence, Development and Foreign Policy, DE&S set course for a significant evolution in how it procures and supports military equipment solutions. Their goal is to ensure there are no unexpected or unmitigated supply chain failures causing disruption to delivery by 2025.
DE&S began developing a business intelligence dashboard to assess their risk through several lenses, for their immediate suppliers as well as their wider supply chain. However, they soon found that they required additional risk datasets to gain actionable and valuable insights.

DE&S chose to partner with Moody’s Analytics given its extensive global entity data coverage and industry leading risk models that cover all the risk lenses they had identified.
