For businesses that rely on global supply chains, visibility has always been a challenge.

In an era defined by geopolitical tensions, trade wars, regulatory scrutiny, and economic unpredictability, managing supply chain risks has become more complex than ever.

Exiger, a global leader in AI-driven supply chain visibility and risk management, is addressing these challenges by providing organizations with a level of insight never before possible. With a presence spanning multiple continents, a growing customer base that includes over 150 Fortune 500 companies and over 65+ government and defense industrial base organizations, and a proprietary AI platform, 1Exiger, Exiger is revolutionizing the way businesses understand and manage their supply chains.

The company has built the largest unified supply chain dataset in the world, enabling it to process over 1.5 trillion data points daily.

“The vast, proprietary data lake allows our artificial intelligence systems to break down supply chains to their most fundamental components, giving customers an unmatched ability to identify risks, optimize costs, and make data-driven decisions with confidence,” says Brandon Daniels, CEO of Exiger.

A Transformational Approach to Supply Chain Management

At the core of 1Exiger’s solution is its ability to create digital supply chain twins. Traditional supply chain mapping has long been a fragmented and reactive process, with companies struggling to track supplier relationships beyond their immediate vendors. Exiger changes this paradigm by allowing businesses to construct a detailed, multi-tiered digital replica of their supply chain infrastructure.

The transformation begins with data. Exiger’s AI platform, 1Exiger, can take an engineering drawing or product description and break it down to its fundamental materials. From a simple medical device to a complex aerospace component, the system determines the precise composition of each product, identifying raw materials, specialized manufacturing processes, and associated suppliers.

By integrating decades of defense acquisition data, Exiger also provides insight into price trends, procurement histories, and supply chain dependencies. This level of granularity enables companies to predict potential disruptions before they occur.

For industries where precision and compliance are non-negotiable, this capability is indispensable. In aerospace and defense, for instance, the platform can identify critical minerals such as antimony, germanium, and gallium—essential for manufacturing but subject to export controls and geopolitical restrictions. Exiger highlights these risks and recommends alternative sourcing strategies, helping businesses build resilience into their supply chains.

Meeting the Challenges of a Globalized Economy

The global supply chain has never been more interconnected—or more vulnerable. Recent years have seen the emergence of trade conflicts, such as the U.S.-China trade war, which introduced tariffs, export bans, and supply chain disruptions on an unprecedented scale. Companies that once relied on stable supplier networks now face sudden shifts in material availability and production costs.

Exiger enables businesses to navigate this uncertain landscape by providing multi-tier supply chain visibility. Consider the example of an automotive manufacturer: a single vehicle may require raw materials sourced from Australia, undergo specialized smelting in China, be transformed into components in Mexico, and then be assembled in the United States. Without a comprehensive view of this supply chain, the company may be blindsided by unforeseen tariffs, delays, or shortages. Exiger’s technology maps every stage of this process, identifying potential risks at each point and allowing businesses to make proactive decisions.

The need for visibility extends beyond trade policy. New regulatory requirements, such as the Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act, now mandate that companies ensure their supply chains are free from forced labor—not just at the direct supplier level but across every tier. Traditional compliance checks, once focused only on primary vendors, are no longer sufficient.

“Our AI-driven platform allows organizations to trace the origins of their materials, ensuring ethical sourcing and regulatory compliance on a global scale,” says Daniels.

A Unified Vision for Integrated Risk Management

Exiger’s approach to risk management challenges the traditional “toolbox” model that has long dominated the industry. Organizations have historically responded to emerging risks by purchasing separate tools for each problem—cybersecurity, financial crime, supply chain disruptions—resulting in a patchwork of 15 to 20 disconnected systems. These siloed solutions rarely communicate with one another, leading to duplicated efforts, wasted resources, and critical blind spots.

Exiger envisions a different future—one defined by integrated, tech-driven risk management. It believes that risk domains cannot be addressed in isolation. Cybersecurity threats often have supply chain implications; financial crime can intersect with vendor relationships. In today’s interconnected landscape, managing one type of risk without visibility into the others creates vulnerabilities.

Through its proprietary 1Exiger platform, the company is redefining how businesses approach risk. Instead of reacting to threats with disconnected tools, Exiger offers a unified operating picture—an end-to-end platform that consolidates data across all major risk categories and provides real-time insights. This integration allows organizations to orchestrate risk management with precision and context, rather than scramble to respond after an issue arises.

By eliminating fragmentation and enabling proactive decision-making, Exiger empowers companies to transform risk from a reactive burden into a strategic advantage. This vision of unified risk intelligence is not just about efficiency—it’s about resilience, agility, and long-term value in an increasingly volatile world.

Turning Risk into Opportunity

Exiger’s capabilities are not just theoretical. The company has already helped some of the world’s largest corporations achieve significant cost savings and operational improvements.

One major aerospace and defense manufacturer, for example, faced growing uncertainty in sourcing microelectronics and metals. Fluctuations in price and availability had created unpredictable cost increases, threatening the stability of its supply chain.

Using Exiger’s supply chain illumination technology, the company was able to map its entire procurement ecosystem, identifying every supplier involved in the production of its components. By aggregating demand across multiple business units and sourcing directly from end mills instead of intermediaries, the manufacturer achieved cost reductions of between 7 percent and 22 percent per product. In total, this optimization saved over $150 million in metals procurement alone.

This level of insight extends across industries. In healthcare, where supply chain resilience can mean the difference between life and death, hospitals and medical device companies use 1Exiger to ensure the continuous availability of critical equipment and pharmaceuticals. Financial institutions also rely on Exiger to evaluate vendor risk, preventing disruptions that could impact their operations.

A Relentless Drive for Innovation and Scale

What sets Exiger apart is not only its technology but also its commitment to continuous innovation. The company has undergone rapid expansion, acquiring five businesses in just two years to enhance its platform’s capabilities. It has also attracted significant investment from Carlyle, Insight Partners, and JMI Equity, driving its valuation to $1.2 billion.

With nearly a thousand employees across the globe, Exiger is scaling at an unprecedented pace. It is already the largest supply chain risk management company in the market, outperforming competitors by a factor of three to five in multi-tier visibility and orchestration. Its reach extends from the United States to Australia, with new offices opening in the Middle East to serve emerging markets in Africa and beyond.

Looking ahead, Exiger is focused on three key areas of development: deep integration of its acquired capabilities, simplification of AI-powered insights, and contextualization of risk. By refining its platform to provide a seamless, intuitive experience, the company aims to make complex supply chain management accessible to organizations of all sizes. Its goal is to transform risk from an operational burden into a strategic advantage.

A Mission-Driven Approach to Global Challenges

Beyond its commercial success, Exiger remains deeply committed to ethical and sustainable supply chain practices. The company actively supports NGOs in their efforts to combat modern slavery, environmental abuses, and counterfeiting. By providing its technology and expertise, Exiger helps ensure that global supply chains are not only efficient but also responsible.

The company’s mission is rooted in the belief that transparency leads to resilience. In a world where businesses are increasingly dependent on outsourced suppliers and third-party vendors, Exiger provides the tools necessary to manage complexity, reduce costs, and mitigate risk.

“Whether dealing with natural disasters, economic volatility, or regulatory changes, organizations that partner with us gain a crucial advantage: the ability to see what lies ahead and act decisively,” says Daniels.
