The gap
Companies have data. They lack diagnosis.
The issue is not the absence of dashboards. It is the absence of a clear view of operational health and financial consequence.
Supply Chain Health Intelligence
Your supply chain is alreadycosting you money.
Arristal shows you where, why, and what to do first. We diagnose supply chain health across five drivers, translate operational gaps into financial outcomes, and give leadership a clear action path.

Why Arristal exists
Most companies measure performance. Few diagnose health.
Dashboards tell leaders what happened. KPIs show which numbers moved. But they rarely explain where the operating system is weak, what the weakness costs, and what leadership should fix first.
Traditional supply chain diagnostics are slow, expensive, and inconsistent. The method changes from consultant to consultant. The work takes weeks. Many companies never get a proper diagnostic because the cost and effort are too high.
Arristal was built to make high-quality supply chain diagnosis faster, more consistent, and financially meaningful.
The consequence
Operational weakness becomes financial drag.
Planning gaps, service instability, slow flow, cost drift, and risk exposure show up in working capital, margin, and revenue stability.
The answer
A score, a signal, and a priority list.
Arristal gives leadership a concise view of where the supply chain stands and where management should act first.
What leaders need to know
Four questions every supply chain should answer.
- Where are we structurally strong?
- Where are we vulnerable?
- What is the gap costing us financially?
- What should we fix first?
The Arristal Score
0 to 100. Five drivers. One number leadership can use.
The Arristal Score reflects the operational health of the supply chain. It does not measure company size, software spend, or the number of dashboards in the room.
Each driver is measured independently. The score is then translated into a maturity band, financial signal, and priority action path.
Financial ranges are derived from diagnostic score patterns, company revenue scale, sector logic, and the operational-financial relationship behind the five drivers. The derivation is shown in the report.

Five drivers
Health, not a vanity score.
Each driver is measured through four calibrated questions. Together they show how the supply chain behaves as a system.

Financial outcome — Working capital and inventory efficiency

Financial outcome — Revenue protection and margin stability

Flow & Responsiveness
How smoothly product, information, and decisions move through the network.
Financial outcome — Cash velocity and expedite cost
[ DRIVER_04 ]TELEMETRY_TRACKING
Cost Efficiency
Whether the cost to serve is understood, controlled, and managed at the right level.
Financial outcome — COGS, operating cost, and margin
[ DRIVER_05 ]TELEMETRY_TRACKING
Risk & Resilience
How prepared the supply chain is for the disruptions that have not happened yet.
Financial outcome — Revenue continuity and volatility protection

Sample output
See the report before you begin the assessment.
For executive buyers, the sample report is the primary proof artifact. It shows the tone, structure, financial translation, and level of specificity before commitment.
It shows the Arristal Score, driver scores, the core finding, the financial translation, and the first action recommendation.
Founding cohort
Help shape the diagnostic standard for supply chain health.
Arristal is inviting a limited number of founding participants to use the diagnostic early, challenge the findings, and help refine the product before broader release.
Founding participants receive direct access to the team, a diagnostic debrief, and the opportunity to shape future benchmarking and product features.
Built by practitioners
Arristal is grounded in operating experience, not software theory.
