A supplier in this country and this sector starts from a baseline risk of 55.9 out of 100 before anything specific to that company is known — the elevated band, and rank 837 of 1650 country-sector combinations in the Tieron reference catalog. Romania ranks 29 of 50 countries on composite country risk; Water & Industrial Utilities ranks 14 of 33 sectors on process risk. Every figure below shows its weight and its source.
Four published indices, normalized to 0–100 risk and combined with the weights the catalog was generated with. Composite: 47.8.
| Factor | Published value | Risk | Weight | Source |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Labour rights violation | ITUC rating 3 (1 best – 5+ worst) | 50.0 | 0.35 | ITUC Global Rights Index 2025 |
| Public-sector corruption | CPI 46 of 100 (higher = cleaner) | 54.0 | 0.25 | Transparency International CPI 2024 |
| Environmental performance | EPI 57.3 of 100 (higher = better) | 42.7 | 0.20 | Yale EPI 2024 |
| Rule of law | WGI 0.44 (−2.5 … 2.5) | 41.2 | 0.20 | World Bank WGI 2023 |
What the process itself carries, independent of where it runs. Sector score: 64.0. Japanese label: 用水/工業ユーティリティ.
| Sub-factor | Score | Relative |
|---|---|---|
| Process hazard | 70.0 | |
| Labour intensity & informality | 55.0 | |
| Environmental load | 80.0 | |
| Upstream depth (tiers below) | 30.0 | |
| Regulatory exposure | 80.0 |
Site-level continuity risk, 0–10. These layers do not enter the baseline score above; they enter a supplier’s score once you give the site a location.
| Layer | Value (0–10) | Relative |
|---|---|---|
| INFORM Risk (overall) | 2.5 | |
| Natural hazard | 3.6 | |
| Earthquake | 6.1 | |
| Flood | 6.1 | |
| Cyclone | 0.0 | |
| Drought | 2.8 |
Country and sector are 50% of Tieron’s risk axis by weight — the half that is knowable from public data alone. The rest is supplier-specific: conflict minerals exposure (weight 0.10), incident history (0.10) and information opacity (0.10). Impact — spend, substitution difficulty, continuity criticality — needs your own ledger. Upload a supplier list and those factors resolve per company, with the same provenance shown here.
