Analyzing Resilience Ratings with Third Party Resilience Assessment

The Third Party Resilience Assessment questionnaire enables you to score the risk of third parties across five categories – Cyber, Facilities, IT Infrastructure, People, and Suppliers. After all questions are answered, the system automatically calculates the resilience rating for each category being assessed.

You can use the Third Party Resilience Assessment with or without Engage for Vendors. Engage for Vendors is an external portal that enables your vendors to securely answer questionnaires outside of Archer. You must install the Engage for Vendors Service and update your Third Party Risk Management license key to publish questionnaires to Engage for Vendors. For more information about installing and configuring the Engage for Vendors Service, see the Archer Engage for Vendors Service Guide on the Archer Community.
