Vendor Exposure Scorecard

Question 1 of 5

Can you leave the contract without an operational surprise?

Look for a renewal deadline, export rights, transition help and a complete account of exit fees.

Is after-hours response a testable commitment?

Your agreement should distinguish acknowledging an alert from containing a problem, with authority and timing for each.

Can you identify and revoke every privileged vendor connection?

Include support users, service accounts, AI tools and application permissions, with a business owner for each.

Can critical work recover if the provider is unavailable?

A backup-job report is different from restoring a usable business workflow without the usual provider.

Can you obtain the evidence needed to defend the decision?

Check access to relevant logs, responsibility records, incident notices and remediation evidence before you sign.
