How it works

This workflow automatically monitors supplier health and supply chain risks, providing real-time alerts and daily reports to procurement teams.

Key Steps

  1. Daily Risk Check - Runs the workflow every morning at 9:00 AM to assess supplier health.
  2. Multi-Source Data Collection - Scrapes supplier websites, investor relations pages, and industry news for risk indicators.
  3. AI-Powered Risk Analysis - Uses ScrapeGraphAI to extract and analyze financial status, operational issues, and regulatory problems.
  4. Risk Scoring Engine - Calculates comprehensive risk scores (1-10) based on multiple factors including financial health, operational disruptions, and news sentiment.
  5. Alternative Supplier Discovery - Automatically searches for backup suppliers when high-risk situations are detected.
  6. Smart Alert System - Routes notifications based on risk levels: immediate alerts for high-risk suppliers, daily summaries for normal operations.
  7. Multi-Channel Notifications - Sends alerts via Slack and detailed reports via email to procurement teams.

Set up steps

Setup time: 10-15 minutes

  1. Configure ScrapeGraphAI credentials - Add your ScrapeGraphAI API key for web scraping capabilities.
  2. Set up Slack integration - Connect your Slack workspace and configure the #procurement-alerts and #supply-chain-updates channels.
  3. Configure email settings - Set up email credentials for detailed reports to procurement teams.
  4. Customize supplier URLs - Update the supplier website URLs to monitor your specific suppliers.
  5. Adjust risk thresholds - Modify the risk scoring parameters based on your industry and risk tolerance.
  6. Set notification preferences - Configure alert conditions and message formatting for your team's needs.

  2. 2. Import the template into n8n

    Open n8n, import the downloaded JSON, and review each node before activating the workflow.

  3. 3. Configure credentials and variables

    Replace placeholder credentials, API keys, webhook URLs, account IDs, and environment-specific values with your own settings.

  4. 4. Test with sample data

    Run the workflow manually or in a staging workspace, inspect node output, and confirm downstream systems receive the expected data.

  5. 5. Activate and monitor

    Enable the workflow only after testing, then monitor executions, errors, and rate limits during the first production runs.

5. General Notes & Resources

Review imported nodes carefully before activation. This catalog entry is intended to help you inspect the workflow structure, understand required services, and find related templates faster.

Node names, credentials, schedules, webhook paths, and external service limits may need adjustment for your workspace.
