Reading the Risk Map: Conflict Intelligence for CSDDD & LkSG

CSDDD and LkSG require companies to assess operational and security risks across their own sites and their supply chains — including risks tied to the geopolitical stability of the regions where suppliers and facilities are located. Standard supplier questionnaires and periodic risk scoring capture a snapshot in time, but conflict and instability don’t wait for the next review cycle.

For organizations with geographically dispersed or higher-risk supply chains, that gap is material. A questionnaire completed six months ago says nothing about unrest that flared up last week near a key supplier site. Compliance teams, supply chain risk managers, and procurement functions increasingly need intelligence that moves at the pace of the risk itself.

This is where geopolitical conflict-intensity data complements the standard questionnaire approach. This dataset tracks conflict intensity at a granular geographic level, giving organizations continuous visibility into the regions their supply chains run through — turning operational risk management into early-warning intelligence. Conceptually, it extends the same resilience thinking behind CER and KRITIS: knowing where disruption risk is building before it reaches your sites or suppliers.

In this session, we’ll show:

• Why geopolitical conflict risk belongs in your CSDDD and LkSG risk assessment.
• How the conflict-intensity modules (Source Module 1 and 2) work, and how they sit alongside supplier questionnaires
• A live walkthrough of the data directly inside the osapiens HUB
• A legal insight coming from our legal partner
