Questions and answers
Questions about Supplier Assessments
Practical answers to common questions about managing this responsibility well.
Why does supplier assessments matter?
Prioritise deeper review and follow-up around the suppliers and gaps that create the most material exposure.
What should supplier assessments include?
It should cover data assessments, compliance assessments, contractual assessments, evidence strength and weighted findings and priority, with enough context to support action and explain decisions.
Who should be responsible for supplier assessments?
Ownership should sit with the person who can make decisions and keep the information current. A specialist or governance team may provide the method, but accountability should not be left with an unnamed group.
How do you keep supplier assessments current?
Set review dates according to risk and reassess after relevant incidents, material change, new evidence or overdue follow-up work. Preserve the history so changes remain explainable.
What evidence should be retained for supplier assessments?
Keep the source information, owner, review and approval history, supporting documents and resulting actions needed to show what was considered and what happened next.
