Webinar Recording: Data-Driven Risk Management at YPSOMED - Structured Supplier Evaluation as Key to Efficient Risk Mitigation

In today's procurement landscape, risk management plays a central role. Companies are increasingly required not only to identify risks in their supply chains but also to actively manage them. YPSOMED, a leading manufacturer in diabetes care and injection systems, has addressed these challenges with a data-driven approach. Learn in our webinar how the company uses Tacto's SRM software to create transparency through structured supplier evaluation and efficiently meet compliance requirements.

Data-driven risk management is no longer a luxury in modern procurement—it is a necessity. Companies operating in regulated industries or with complex supply chains must be able to identify, assess, and monitor supplier risks in real-time. YPSOMED, a global leader in diabetes care and injection systems, recognized this imperative and implemented Tacto's SRM software to centralize supplier management and risk assessment.

The Challenge: Managing Supplier Risks Across Global Networks

As a manufacturer of critical medical devices, YPSOMED operates under stringent regulatory requirements including ISO 13485, FDA compliance, and various European quality standards. Managing compliance across a diverse supplier base while maintaining supply chain resilience required a structured, data-driven approach.

The solution: implementing Tacto to centralize supplier data, automate risk evaluations, and create transparency across the procurement function. Through structured questionnaires, automated compliance checks, and centralized documentation, YPSOMED reduced risk assessment time by 40% while improving data accuracy and regulatory traceability.

In the live webinar "Data-Driven Risk Management at YPSOMED - Structured Supplier Evaluation as Key to Efficient Risk Mitigation," Anne-Kathrin Dovoda (Sustainability Manager Purchasing at YPSOMED), Steffen Schneider (Sustainability Sourcing Manager at YPSOMED) and Karoline Rückerl (Head of Customer Development at Tacto) demonstrate how digital supplier evaluation helps companies systematically capture and minimize risks. They explain why automated risk analyses, central data structures and transparent processes are essential to efficiently meet regulatory requirements and sustainably optimize procurement.
