Supplier Management

With Supplier Management in Key Control Dashboard, you get a firm grip on supplier risks, compliance and supply chain dependencies. You assess, monitor and classify suppliers centrally, which gives you more insight into risks across your supply chain.

More control over supplier risks

Suppliers play an ever larger role in processes, services and IT environments. That also increases the risks around security, compliance and continuity. You need to know which suppliers have access to systems, data and critical processes. With Supplier Management, you centralise supplier assessments, monitoring and risk analysis in one environment. That gives you a firmer grip on third parties and demonstrable control of supplier risks.

Part of risk management

Supplier Management helps you assess, classify and monitor suppliers and partners. You group suppliers by risk level, so you match due diligence and controls to the risk each supplier brings. By connecting processes, services, suppliers and frameworks, you get a complete overview of supplier risks and dependencies across your supply chain.

Why organisations choose Supplier Management

More insight into supplier management

Here’s how Supplier Management helps you in practice: from risk-based onboarding to continuous monitoring and collaboration across the supply chain.

Risk-based onboarding and due diligence

You assess suppliers against predefined risk levels and due diligence requirements. That gives you better insight into risks before suppliers get access to processes, systems or data. You match controls and checks to each supplier’s risk profile, so you use your capacity where it matters most.

Continuous monitoring and a complete view

Regular assessments give you insight into suppliers’ security posture, compliance and risks. Dashboards also show which suppliers are linked to services, processes and systems. That gives you a complete view of dependencies and risks across your organisation and supply chain.

Collaboration between risk, compliance and the business

Stakeholders from risk, compliance, security, procurement and the business work together in one central environment. Roles, permissions and responsibilities stay clearly defined, so everyone involved sees their own part of the process and the follow-up.

Support for frameworks and supply chain security

Supplier Management supports organisations that work with frameworks and standards such as ISO 27001, ISO/IEC 27036, the Dutch BIO and NEN 7510, and NIST SP 800-161. That makes it a good fit if you want to manage supplier risks, information security and supply chain security in a demonstrable way.
