Trade policy shifts faster than procurement can model alternatives. Tariff Mitigation Playbooks quantify your exposure by supplier, commodity, and origin, then simulate sourcing shifts that minimize cost while preserving quality and delivery timelines.
$6.3M annual tariff exposure identified across 23 suppliers and 4 commodity groups. China-origin components represent 58% of total exposure. Vietnam and Malaysia alternatives can absorb 61% of affected volume. Switching cost of $340K delivers projected annual saving of $2.2M with no impact to quality specifications or delivery SLAs.
The Challenge
A single tariff schedule change can affect dozens of suppliers across multiple commodities simultaneously. Procurement teams cannot manually model the full cost impact across every affected part, origin, and contract in time to act.
Shifting suppliers requires balancing cost, quality, lead time, capacity, and compliance. Spreadsheet-based analysis takes weeks, and by the time a sourcing recommendation is ready, the tariff landscape may have changed again.
Most organizations lack a real-time view of their total tariff exposure. Finance discovers the impact in landed cost reports after goods have shipped. By then, the only lever is price increases or margin compression.
How eyko Solves It
A Tariff Mitigation Playbook connects to your procurement system, supplier database, and tariff schedule feeds. It calculates total exposure by supplier and commodity, simulates alternative sourcing scenarios, and recommends shifts that minimize cost while maintaining quality and lead time constraints.
The Playbook identifies $6.3M in annual tariff exposure spread across 23 suppliers and 4 commodity groups. China-origin components account for 58% of total exposure. Vietnam and Malaysia have capacity to absorb 61% of affected volume based on current supplier qualifications.

FAQ
Everything you need to know about Tariff Exposure Analysis.
Tariff Mitigation Planning is an AI-powered analysis that quantifies your total tariff exposure by supplier, commodity, and country of origin, then models alternative sourcing scenarios to minimize cost impact. It evaluates switching costs, quality implications, lead time changes, and capacity constraints to recommend actionable sourcing shifts. The output is a ranked set of mitigation strategies with projected savings and implementation timelines.
The Tariff Mitigation Playbook connects to your procurement system (SAP Ariba, Coupa, Oracle), supplier master data, bill of materials, and tariff schedule feeds such as HTSUS. It combines purchase volumes, landed cost breakdowns, supplier origin data, quality certifications, and lead time records to calculate exposure and model alternatives across your full supplier base.
Yes. The Playbook runs parallel scenario analysis across different tariff schedule assumptions. You can model a 10% increase on China-origin electronics alongside a 25% increase on steel imports and compare the combined impact. Each scenario includes projected cost, supplier capacity utilization, and timeline to execute the recommended shifts, so procurement can evaluate trade-offs before committing.
The Playbook recalculates exposure within hours of a tariff schedule update. When new rates are published, eyko ingests the changes and recomputes landed costs across all affected suppliers and commodities automatically. Procurement teams receive updated exposure figures and revised mitigation recommendations without waiting for a manual refresh cycle.
