UpGuard’s Managed Vendor Assessments allow you to delegate the task of assessing third-party vendors to our team of security experts
Managed Vendors lets you request UpGuard's Managed Vendor Assessment services. The service includes:
- Risk assessment: Our analysts create a tailored risk assessment based on evidence gathered.
These services are designed to help you scale up your third-party risk management program without having to hire additional staff. Whether you're a small business with a few vendors or a large multinational with thousands of vendors, we can help.
For small businesses that may not have in-house third-party risk experts, our analyst team can be engaged for expert assessment of critical suppliers. For large companies, UpGuard’s analyst team provides an elastic pool of experts who can help process large numbers of vendors so that you can focus on larger business processes.
If you are interested please contact us so we can learn about your needs, help you understand how pricing works, and get you set up.
Once you’re set-up, you’ll be able to request a managed service from Managed Vendors, monitor the progress of your requests, and review complete requests from within the UpGuard platform. Here’s how the process works:
-
Step 1: Request a managed service
-
Step 2: After requesting a service, an UpGuard analyst will be assigned to work with you. They'll determine what services the vendor provides your organization, ask about previous interactions with the vendor, and determine the type of assessment that will be appropriate for them.
-
Step 3: Analysts perform the risk assessment you have requested.
