How to build a supplier risk assessment register from contracts?

Build a supplier risk register from contracts and supporting documents by extracting obligations, controls, evidence status, renewal dates, and unresolved risk gaps.

What belongs in a supplier risk register?

A useful register should show the supplier, service, contract status, risk tier, required evidence, control gaps, expiry dates, owners, and source documents behind each value.

Why use contracts as the starting point?

Supplier agreements often define audit rights, insurance, data processing, subcontracting, security, service levels, resilience, renewal, and termination obligations. Those terms shape the risk view.

How does TextMine create the register?

Vault extracts contract and evidence fields, Records define the supplier data model, Workflows route missing items, and Integrations update procurement, GRC, or BI systems.
