What is Third-Party Risk Management?

Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) is a comprehensive framework for identifying, assessing, and mitigating risks posed by your organization's relationships with vendors, suppliers, service providers, partners, and other external parties. As businesses increasingly rely on third parties for critical services and data handling, effective TPRM has become essential for maintaining security, compliance, and operational resilience.

SERVICE OPTIONS

Third-party risk — three ways to engage

Third-party risk isn't one-size-fits-all, so we deliver it three ways: a one-off vendor risk assessment when you need a clear picture fast, an ongoing managed program when you want it handled, or program design & enablement when you want to run it in-house — all aligned to your supply-chain risk and the frameworks you're held to.

One-off vendor risk assessment

  • Vendor tiering
  • Assessments executed
  • Risk-scored vendor register
  • Findings per vendor
  • Prioritised remediation plan
MOST CHOSEN

Managed TPRM program

Third-party risk run as one managed service — six components:

  • Cyber risk assessments — vendor controls vs ISO / SOC 2 / GDPR, attack-surface + vulnerability analysis
  • Continuous monitoring — threat intel, dark web and real-time posture alerts from a best-of-breed TPRM platform, findings weighed by senior consultants
  • Incident management — rapid detection, coordinated vendor response
  • Reporting & lifecycle — executive dashboards, scorecards, audit-ready evidence
  • Service governance — quarterly, KPI-driven reviews
  • Platform & support — onboarding included, CET business hours

Program design & enablement

We design the TPRM program you run in-house:

  • Policy & procedures
  • Assessment methodology
  • Tooling selection
  • Training

Effort where it counts

Oversight scaled to each vendor's impact, so budget goes where the real exposure is.

High-impact

Cloud providers, sensitive-data SaaS: full assessment + continuous monitoring + attack-surface & dark-web.

Medium-impact

Software vendors, IT subcontractors: standard assessment + periodic monitoring + compliance review.

Low-impact

Services with no system access: light-touch review + annual re-check + contract-level oversight.

Operational in 4 weeks — week 1 foundation (vendor list, risk appetite, platform) · weeks 2–4 activation (high-impact assessments, monitoring live) · month 2+ steady state. First risk signals typically within week 3.

European regulation-native: built for NIS2 supply-chain security, DORA ICT third-party requirements, and GDPR processor oversight.

FAQ SECTION

Frequently asked questions

We scope a fixed price up front after a short call — no open-ended day rates. Tell us how many vendors you have and what data they touch and we'll send a clear quote. Scope your TPRM program →
Yes. You get a risk-scored vendor register, clear findings per vendor, and a prioritised remediation plan — not just a pile of returned questionnaires. Scope your TPRM program →
We use a risk-based approach — categorising vendors by data access, service criticality and business impact — so effort goes where the real exposure is. Scope your TPRM program →
We align to ISO 27001, NIST CSF, SIG and CAIQ and tailor the depth to each vendor's risk. Location is no barrier — we assess international vendors remotely across regions. Scope your TPRM program →
A basic programme can be stood up in a few weeks. When a vendor is unresponsive we escalate through your relationship owner and fall back on alternative evidence — external scans, existing certifications — so an assessment isn't blocked. Scope your TPRM program →
