Water risk is business risk.
Water-related risks increasingly affect production sites and supply chains.
Companies face:
- Droughts and water shortages
- Flooding and extreme events
- Water availability issues
- Water quality concerns
- Regulatory and reputational pressure
The impact is direct: production sites may face disruption, crop supplies become more expensive, resource management becomes more complex, and companies risk reputational damage when seen as large water users with negative local impact.
The challenge: reliable, global and up-to-date water data is often missing. Especially data translated into business risk.
From water risk to action.
Terramira helps companies understand where water risks affect their business and what to do about them.
Not just risk scores.
Clear recommendations.
A roadmap for mitigation.
Assess. Prioritize. Mitigate. Monitor.
We combine global water data, climate projections and consultancy into one actionable approach.
We assess key water risks around sites and supply chains, including water quantity, quality, regulatory and reputational risks.
We translate risks into recommended actions, such as basin-level solutions or replenishment projects.
We develop site-level water project roadmaps to support implementation.
We track water targets, update risk insights and monitor the impact of mitigation actions over time.
Lower risk. Stronger resilience.
Prioritize investments
Rank sites and supply chains by risk and urgency.
Simplify reporting
Use structured insights to support risk management and sustainability reporting.
Track water targets
Monitor progress on replenishment and water stewardship goals.
Built for global water challenges
The approach is designed for companies with production sites and supply chains across multiple countries.
It supports:
- Global coverage
- Production sites and supply chains
- 30-year climate projections
- Risk indices
- Quantified risk, including value at risk and shadow pricing
- Recommendations and implementation roadmaps
Example approach from the input: a global food & beverage client selected 45+ priority sites, defined a methodology, replicated it across production sites, ranked risks and solutions, and monitored progress after six months.
