Introduction:

Building a compliant 3rd Party Risk Management program is like building a house. It must have the following:

1)      A purpose for building the house (Strategic Objectives)

2)      A strong foundation (defined 3rd party risk management lifecycle)

3)      Windows/doors/siding to protect against the elements (controls to mitigate risk)

4)      A framework with a support structure (Operating Model)

  • Construction crew including carpenters, plumbers, electricians (1st Line of Defense)
  • A foreman (Vendor Management Office – 2nd Line of Defense) to oversee its development and to ensure that all members of the crew execute their tasks and live up to their responsibilities
  • An independent building inspector (Audit – 3rd Line of Defense) that provides assurance that the foreman and crew have done their jobs properly
  • A process for reporting status of construction and change orders (Reporting to committees and the Board)

5)      A roof to cover it all (Executive Management and the Board)

6)      Constructed to meet state and federal building code (regulations)

This course covers the following 3 areas to address these issues:

  1. Adapting a governance, risk, compliance (GRC) framework to 3rd party risk management programs
  2. Developing an Operating model including 1st, 2nd, 3rd Lines of Defense
  3. Building a 3rd Party Risk Management Program that meets the 10 components of a compliant program
