Free COVID-19 Risk Monitoring App Released

Eka Software Solutions announce the release of COVID-19 Risk Monitoring, a free app designed to help customers and prospects quickly gain visibility into supply chain risks to better assess and mitigate risk. The app provides specific insights into the impact of COVID-19 by showing a company’s contract position across countries with reported cases of the virus. Based on company data, the app instantly visualises contracts at risk and provides businesses with the ability to identify alternate suppliers to maintain business continuity.
Manav Garg, CEO & Founder of Eka Software Solutions, said: “Businesses are facing unparalleled challenges as governments make unprecedented decisions on how to contain the virus and protect their citizens, clients and family members. We are committed to helping commodity businesses through this period of intense disruption. As soon as we realised the impact of the virus, we turned our resources to create a new app to help mitigate the risk to businesses and supply chains. Our new COVID-19 Risk Monitoring app is available free of charge for 90 days.”
The Eka COVID-19 application quickly and securely imports real-time information relating to the virus outbreak from trusted sources. It analyses this data along with supply chain data using advanced machine learning analytical algorithms. The app enables customers to continuously assess the risks the virus is presenting to their businesses and provides real-time information about the impact to inventory, purchase and sales contracts across geographies, commodities, business partners, customers and suppliers. Other insights include total contract value by supplier and customer along with purchase, sales and inventory quantity and value in risk areas. Users get a clear overview of the level of risk to their supply chain and can quickly drill down to look at specific regions, projects or contracts in more detail.
Armed with this intelligence, companies can take preventative and corrective actions that mitigate risks and help keep supply chain operations robust.
Additional general features provided from Eka’s solution are based on the capabilities of the overall Eka cloud native platform; including custom reports, customisable alerts, user-defined dashboards, enterprise-grade security and the ability to seamlessly integrate disparate data sources. The platform makes more efficient use of data to enhance decision making and is specifically designed for commodity industries including agriculture, energy, metals and mining, and consumer packaged goods (CPG).
Garg concluded: “We want to help our clients manage the economic impact created by the COVID-19 outbreak and provide them the tools to make critical business decisions. The impact of the virus reinforces the need for digital supply chains that enable commodity businesses to harness real-time data and advanced analytics and respond quickly and intelligently to market disruptions. We hope that making the app free of charge for 90 days, will help protect commodity businesses and guide them through this unprecedented event.”
