Problem
Supply chain disruptions from tariffs, geopolitical events, and market shifts are frequent, but companies often lack a way to quickly translate these external events into concrete financial impact on their specific suppliers, products, and margins. Fragmented data across spreadsheets and ERP systems makes it slow and difficult to assess exposure and decide on timely responses.
Solution
Shielded provides a unified platform that connects a company's internal operational and financial data with live external intelligence. The system automatically maps external events—such as tariff announcements or shipping disruptions—to specific suppliers, products, and cost structures, continuously quantifying the financial impact on margins. Users can model different scenarios, simulate operational and financial decisions, and receive recommended actions like re-sourcing suppliers or adjusting pricing. The platform integrates with ERP systems like SAP S/4HANA, Oracle NetSuite, and Snowflake, as well as CSV and PDF uploads, to provide real-time decision support.
Target Audience
The platform is built for complex supply chain operators, primarily in manufacturing, defense, and food and beverage sectors, including CFOs, supply chain leaders, and procurement teams managing margin risk.
