osapiens HUB for Supplier Intelligence

Why Companies Are Reconsidering Prewave in 2026

Most companies leave Prewave because, despite having a supplier's risk monitoring tool in place, their teams still end up doing a surprising amount of the actual work by hand.

Here is the pattern we hear most often from teams that made the switch.

The Pattern

  • Risk assessment drowning in noise

    Traditional risk monitoring floods teams with thousands of media alerts, most of which are irrelevant background noise rather than substantiated risks. Sifting through this volume to find what actually matters is inefficient and error-prone, and it obscures genuine, verifiable risks.

  • The score doesn't update once mitigation is closed

    A concrete review clears a supplier, but the original abstract score often isn't updated, and there's no way to correct it manually either. For LkSG and CSDDD specifically, that breaks the abstract-to-concrete risk logic the law is actually built around.

  • Integrations connect to the wrong system

    Many integrations connect to indirect procurement or sourcing platforms, not the systems running direct procurement and production. For SAP-run environments, that's exactly where the risk sits.

  • Reporting gets rebuilt outside the system

    The product leans harder into news monitoring than into the review logic itself, so reporting tends to get rebuilt in Excel, which becomes a real problem once you're managing thousands of suppliers.

  • The deciding factor usually isn't a new AI feature

    In side-by-side evaluations, it's total cost of ownership, and how much of the workflow actually lives inside the platform versus outside it in spreadsheet.

One HUB. 360° visibility. Audit-ready.
