The Challenge Today AMARO CapabilitiesSolutionAMARO automates and enhances the proactiveidentification of supply chain risk by digesting thousandsof structured and unstructured government and non-government datasets, applying advanced analytics, andformulating easy-to-digest displays

Same company; different risk profiles for individual parts

Supply chain tools on the market today only look atthe risk of the overall manufacturer; which isinsufficient for the needs of the Department ofDefense

Strategic analysis of microelectronics issues is amanual, time intensive process. The Department ofDefense requires the capability to assess the fragilityof the various semiconductor segments, and the abilityto forecast the impacts of events like COVID-19,earthquakes, foundry closures, and acquisitions
