governing documentDocuments that govern the control
- The policy stating the requirements imposed on supply chain providers · Vendor register / contract repository
- Evidence the requirements are flowed into contracts · Vendor register / contract repository
- Confirmation of compliance obtained from providers · Vendor register / contract repository
- Handling of providers that cannot meet a requirement · Vendor register / contract repository
First move
This control is evidenced by people and documents, not systems. Put the document under version control with an owner and review date, and log each review as a record with reviewer and date. Do not try to automate it.
Common gaps auditors find
- Requirements stated in policy and never flowed into supplier contracts
- Compliance asserted by the supplier and never evidenced
- Non-compliant suppliers used with no documented risk acceptance
