Every company that relies on their suppliers and that has mature management maintains internal supplier score cards as part of their risk assessment, more so for suppliers that are hard to find replacements for. They will of course all have their of thresholds for action but what has happened in the last period with CF exceeds most of the thresholds for management comfort that I'm aware of.

Incident reports themselves are highly technical, so will not reach management because they are most likely simply not equipped to deal with them. But the CTOs of the companies will take notice, especially when their own committed SLAs are endangered and their own management asks them for an explanation. CF makes them all look bad right now.
