04

Ongoing assurance

Smarter Assessment Workflows

Turn assessment data and evidence into clear decisions and actions. AI helps teams move faster by surfacing what matters most, while keeping a human in the loop for context, judgement and final decisions.
Supplier Summary — Get a concise view of each supplier’s strengths, gaps and priority issues, so reviewers know where to focus. Share a clear, decision-ready summary with stakeholders.
Domain Review Agent — Run a first-pass review that summarises findings by domain, highlights the issues most likely to affect your organisation, and recommends next steps — from starting a discussion to raising a remediation or opening a risk. Reviewers stay in control and decide what happens next.

FAQ

Common questions about supplier assurance

How do we prioritise which suppliers to assess?

Risk Ledger helps organisations prioritise supplier assessments based on supplier criticality, business context and current risk, so reviews are focused where they have the greatest impact.

Can different teams collaborate on supplier reviews?

Yes. Security, procurement and business stakeholders can review suppliers, manage actions and track assurance activities together within a shared workflow.

How does Risk Ledger support regulatory compliance?

Risk Ledger helps organisations demonstrate due diligence through consistent supplier assurance processes, structured evidence collection, reporting and a complete audit trail.

How does supplier onboarding work in Risk Ledger?

Risk Ledger supports onboarding for both your organisation and your suppliers. Connect to suppliers already on the Risk Ledger network or invite new suppliers individually or in bulk. Suppliers can maintain a reusable security profile that is shared securely with connected customers, helping organisations start reviews sooner while reducing duplicated effort.

Do suppliers have to pay for a Risk Ledger profile?

No. We believe that supplier engagement is key to building Active Supply Chain Security, which means we want to remove as many barriers to entry for suppliers as possible. Suppliers can sign up for free on Risk Ledger, get access to our extensive Knowledge Base, and get free scan data to improve their security posture.
