Risk Scores


Design Risk

The Design Risk Score provides a bird’s eye view of the risks involved with designing a part in-house. Our insights include supply data, lead times, and product life cycle details.

Low Risk

The part is widely available, with good lead times and an active life cycle.

Medium Low Risk

The part is available, with good lead times and an active life cycle.

Medium Risk

The part is available with decent lead times, but life cycle should be reviewed.

Medium High Risk

The part may not be widely available or have decent lead times, life cycle should be reviewed.

High Risk

The part may not be available. Lead times are trending higher, and lifecycles may be inactive, obsolete, or N/A.


Market Availability

The Market Availability Score provides a comprehensive view into part obtainability. We compile part data from thousands of suppliers, analyze historical trends, and provide market availability forecasts. Our unique data insights feature global market availability, pricing history, and inventory fluctuation data.
