The Challenge
Regulatory frameworks like ISO or DORA demand rigorous supplier due diligence. The reality of how it gets done is often fragmented and tedious.
Compliance checks are scattered across teams — procurement handles their piece, IT security theirs, legal theirs. There's no central view, no consistent methodology. Critical gaps go unnoticed until an audit surfaces them. Meanwhile, the people doing this work are drowning in PDFs, hunting through supplier websites for SOC 2 reports, and manually cross-referencing policies against 50-point checklists. It's exactly the kind of error-prone work where fatigue leads to missed red flags.
When compliance isn't someone's full-time job, the expertise often isn't there either. Teams tick boxes without truly assessing risk and nobody sees the gaps until an audit.
The Agent
The Supplier Assessment Agent brings rigor without the grind.
When a new supplier enters your pipeline, the agent searches for publicly available policies, certifications, and security documentation. It maps findings against your compliance standard. For each requirement, the agent makes a determination: compliant, non-compliant, or requires further review. It doesn't just surface documents - it reads them, extracts relevant sections, and explains its reasoning.
Consistent methodology. Faster supplier assessment. High quality and low cost.
The output is a structured assessment report, ready for human review. No more hunting through websites. No more inconsistent judgment calls across teams. No more checkbox exercises that miss the point.
