Operational Risk Assessment
Anweshna reads operating agreements, management presentations, and disclosure schedules for the operational fragility a financial statement alone won't show.
What it screens for
- Customer concentration — what share of revenue sits with the target's largest customer or two.
- Supplier dependency — a sole-source supplier and the percentage of cost of goods sold it represents.
- Key-person risk — a named executive's departure date and role, and whether a succession plan exists.
- Facility and possession delays — construction or lease handover slippage, including penalty clauses that follow from it.
- Business-continuity gaps — vacancy rates and disaster-recovery coverage that would matter if a key site went down.
- Earn-out trigger risk — how an earn-out's measurement definition could be gamed or missed post-close.
Why it's tracked as its own category
Operational carries a 4% weight in Anweshna's composite score. It doesn't independently block a deal the way Financial or Legal can, but a document that discloses heavy customer or supplier concentration, an unplanned executive exit, or a stalled facility buildout still needs to surface on its own line — these risks tend to get buried in management commentary rather than stated plainly, and a keyword scan alone would miss the context that makes them material.
