Fosterra Launches Risk-ACES to Enable Rapid Climate Risk Assessments
New York, New York – Fosterra today announced the launch of Risk-ACES, a new platform designed to help organizations conduct rapid, facility-level climate risk assessments across supply chains and operational networks.
Risk-ACES was developed to address a growing challenge facing manufacturers, supply chain leaders, and sustainability teams: important decisions about suppliers, facilities, and infrastructure are too often made without clear visibility into the climate and operational risks surrounding them. By connecting climate intelligence, operational context, and business-relevant risk drivers, Risk-ACES helps organizations identify exposure faster and act with greater confidence.
The platform is designed to support rapid assessment and decision-making by giving users a clearer view of where risk arises, how it is distributed across facilities and suppliers, and what actions may be needed to strengthen resilience. Risk-ACES also helps organizations align climate risk work with evolving reporting expectations, including TCFD- and IFRS-aligned disclosures and emerging requirements in major markets.
Rather than relying on generic site scoring alone, Risk-ACES applies the ACES methodology to evaluate risk through multiple dimensions that directly affect business performance, including availability, cost, and environmental pressure. The result is a more practical, decision-ready view of climate and operational exposure.
“Companies cannot afford to wait months for climate risk insight that should already be shaping sourcing, supplier, and facility decisions,” said Benjamin Foster, CEO of Fosterra. “Risk-ACES was created to make climate risk assessment faster, more actionable, and more directly connected to the realities of operating under pressure.”
In addition to forward-looking climate analysis, the platform supports more immediate response by helping teams understand which assets and suppliers may be most exposed when disruption occurs. Fosterra said the platform was built not just for reporting, but for practical resilience planning across global value chains.
With Risk-ACES, organizations can compare suppliers and facilities side by side, test future scenarios, and prioritize actions before disruption forces reactive decision-making. The goal is simple: turn climate risk insight into better operational choices for long-term success.
