The importance of integrated risk management of supply chains is increasing as well as the dependence of critical or strategic infrastructures. Especially, the dependence of energy supply and the information and communication technologies increases rapidly. On the other hand, new threats like Cyber threats occurred. Therefore, the existing risk-management systems fall too short and cannot match the existing complexity. Within this publication, there are some necessary steps explained for the development of an integrated supply chain risk monitoring and supply chain risk rating model. The basis is a standardized categorization system, and then the red thread is explained with a bottom-up process. The goals are to develop an integrated risk monitoring and risk rating model for defined clusters as well as for the supply chain as a whole and the description of a supply chain network risk monitoring system as well as a supply chain network risk rating system. The background of these considerations is the improvement of the strategic and operational decision-making process via innovative systems and models.
