Supply chains have become increasingly complex and managing third-party relationships is a critical element of regulation and risk management. Vendor risks directly impact an organisation’s overall security posture.
At PKF, we provide comprehensive third-party risk management services to help organisations mitigate risks from their external partnerships. Our approach starts with understanding the threat landscape and the organisation’s risk exposure. We assess the organisation’s readiness to manage third-party risks through an enterprise-wide vendor risk management framework. We help organisations to establish controls involving people, processes, technology across the supply chain and support incident management protocols. Our platform enables continuous risk assessment, allowing organisations to manage the vendor lifecycle proactively and effectively.
Our team also assists you in checking your arrangements to ensure compliance with industry regulations, including FCA PS21/3 and Bank of England Prudential Regulations. PKF’s AI-driven solutions streamline vendor compliance, ensuring that your third-party relationships remain secure, and adhere to best practices in risk management.
Periodic assessment of third-party vendors is key, focusing on critical data security, technical integration, and the classification of sensitive vendors. Our service model also includes SOC 2 Type 1 and Type 2 assessments for critical vendors, ensuring a robust security framework across your supply chain.
With a dedicated team of risk professionals and an AI-based solution for vendor compliance, PKF is your trusted partner in third-party security management, helping you navigate the complexities of supply chain risk with confidence.
