Thisassessment offers a playful,quick,and indicative approach toevaluating your company’s level of sovereignty with regard to its strategic It helps identify: •critical areas of dependency,•initial levers for resilience and autonomy,•potential priority actions. This assessment does not replace an in-depth analysis conducted using astructured methodology,such as the one developed by Roland Berger, Response format For each question, choose the answer that best reflects your company’s current situation A.High dependency, critical exposure(= 0 point)B.Significant dependency, partial control(= 1 point)C.Limited dependency, operational control(=3points)D.Low dependency, sovereign control(=5 points) Then add up the scores obtained across all questions to obtain your overallscore out of100. DIMENSION 1 STRATEGIC ASSETS–Total score 1.Physical assets Q1.How many independent sites do the majority of our critical operations (production, datacenters, logistics, etc.) rely on? A.1 single site[0 POINT]B.2sites, but located in the same country or dependent on the same criticalinfrastructure[1 POINT]C.3 to 4 truly independent sites (different countries and infrastructures) Q2.For how long, and to what extent, can operations continue if one site is shut down? A.Near-total shutdown within a few days–critical disruption to customer deliveries[0 POINT]B.<50% of activity maintained for a few weeks–severe degradation in quality andlead times[1 POINT]C.50–80% of activity maintained for several months, with the ability to switch to asecond site not exposed to the same risks–limited but tangible customer impact 2.Intangible assets (technologies & intellectual property) Q3.Do we control the technologies that are essential to our activities? A.Key technologies dependent on third parties (vendors, partners)B.A mix of proprietary components and external componentsC.Key technologies that are predominantly proprietary, with residualdependencies under control[3 POINTS] Q4.Could we continue to operate if access to technologies or licensing conditions were tochange? A.No–shutdown or major loss of capacity[0 POINT]B.Yes–with high costs and extended timelines (>12 months)[1 POINT]C.Yes–with controlled adaptation (<12 months), with no major customer impactand no significant cost or time implications[3 POINTS] 3.Human capital Q5.To what extent would we face difficulties if one or more key profiles were to leave the A.Immediate blockage of a critical activityB.Significant disruption for several monthsC.Transition possible with limited loss of efficiency D.Smooth replacement with no major customer impact Q6. CHow do we ensure backup / succession for key individuals in critical skill areas? A.No formalization, strong individual dependency[0 POINT]B.Informal backup / succession[1 POINT]C.Partiallystructuredorganization(buddysystem,documentation)[3 POINTS] 4. Innovation & R&D Q7.How are innovation priorities defined? How is technology scouting organized? A.Priorities dictated by partners or funders; opportunistic or non-existenttechnology scouting[0 POINT]B.Shared governance; partial technology scouting (trade shows, suppliers, weaksignals)[1 POINT] Q8.Are the technologies developed contractually protected? A.Rights held primarily by external partnersB.Shared rights or contractually fragile arrangementsC.Rights largely secured by the company 5.Data governance Q9.Which regulations do our critical data fall under? A.High regulatory exposure (e.g:U.S. Cloud Act)B.Significant regulatory exposure[1 POINT]C.Controlled regulatory exposure (e.g:EU jurisdiction) Q10.Who controls physical access to the company’s data? A.Service providers/ hyperscalers[1POINT]B.Shared control with contractual commitment DIMENSION 2 6.Sources of fouding Q11.Does one of our financial partners have the ability to limit or condition certain of our A.Dominant shareholder, majority investor, or a restricted banking pool withrestrictive covenants[0 POINT]B.Lead bank or key investor capable of exerting significant influenceC.A plurality of financial partners limiting individual influence 7.Supply chains Q12.Do we have dependencies on a limited number of suppliers, logistics routes, digital A.E.g. single supplier / single route on a critical flow[0 POINT]B.Two suppliers from the same country or exposed to the same risk (e.g.geopolitical / logistical)[1 POINT]C.Several truly independent suppliers[3 POINTS] Q13.Have alternatives been identified, secured, and are they operational in the event of a A.No alternative[0 POINT]B.Alternatives identified but not qualified or testedC.Alternatives tested, but with significant lead times 8.Distribution and market access Q14.To what extent do we depend on intermediaries that structure our distribution A.Near-total dependency on one or two dominant platforms or distributorsB.Strong dependency on a few partners (>50% of indirect sales)C.Limited dependency (e.g:balance between direct and indirect channels)D
