What it measures

% of critical SKUs with single source supply

Leading indicator

it measures a structural vulnerability before a supplier fails. A high index today predicts a production line stop within the next 3-6 months if that single source faces a disruption.

Business impact

  • Triggers a 'chaos tax' when a single source fails: premium air freight for emergency supply, unplanned production changeovers to run alternative products, and customer service overtime managing stock-out communications.
  • Forces the business to carry excess safety stock on single-sourced items, bloating the inventory position and consuming working capital to buffer against a risk that should be designed out of the supply chain.
  • Sustained failure to supply a key account due to a single-source ingredient failure puts the business in the delisting zone, triggering a formal service review and jeopardizing future new product listings.

Formula

Count of single-source SKUs / Total critical SKUs x 100

Grain

One row per purchase order line — supplier × material × plant × date; dependency index aggregated to distinct material × supplier combinations per period.

The real DAX measure PRO-12 DAX measure from the Implementation Pack

This is the primary ratio the pack's other measures build on — trend, rank, and period-comparison variants, all on Fact_Purchase_Order_Line. Two independently-filtered CALCULATE blocks, not a simple ratio of raw sums.

Data you need
  • Fact_Purchase_Order_Line — 8 mandatory columns — commodity key, material key, ...
  • Dim_Commodity — key + name
  • Dim_Material — material_key + material_description
  • Dim_Plant — key + name
  • Dim_Supplier — key + name
  • Dim_Date — Auto-generated calendar table — no customer data required

Full field-by-field data contract, in 4 SQL dialects (SQL Server, Snowflake, Databricks, BigQuery), ships in the pack.

Editable thresholds
Target0.15 — performance considered compliant at or below this line
Warning0.35 — amber alert — triggers a review

Both live in one Excel tab — change them, refresh the report, done. No DAX editing needed.
