Analyst Insight: The Gartner® Market Guide for IT Vendor Risk Management Solutions
Supply chain security and business resilience have never been more important than now. In these unprecedented economic times, organizations must ensure that the vendors they do business with are resilient enough to weather the storm. However, an alarming number of companies aren’t even able to centrally manage their vendors; know the risks they inherently bring to the business; or assess them without resorting to archaic and time-consuming methods like spreadsheets.
With budgets shrinking and projects being re-prioritized right and left, now is the time to ditch those spreadsheets and invest in an automated third-party risk management program to ensure your vendors are secure, resilient and ready for what’s next.
