Third-Party Vendor Governance
A Cross-Domain Governance Function
Third-party vendor governance is not a standalone program. It is a cross-domain function that touches every governance domain in the enterprise - data, security, privacy, compliance, and operational risk.
The Governance Desk examines vendor governance through five architecture dimensions: Contractual Architecture, Operational Oversight Architecture, Data and Access Architecture, Regulatory and Compliance Architecture, and Exit and Transition Architecture.
