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
- Assurance report accepted as a governance review without reading its scope or exceptions
- Reviews performed for some partners and not others
- No defined cycle, so reviews happen only when prompted
