Your business challenge
The number of third parties involved in business processes — both internal and external — is steadily increasing. Each third party typically collaborates with its own complex network, compounding the constellation of organizations in business with each other. As business complexity and global scale grow, the challenges for risk managers have become more significant than ever.
Effective third-party risk management (TPRM) programs not only reduce risk — they enhance value-driving partnerships so your organization can embrace the future with confidence.
Solution features and functionality
The EY TPRM solution helps organizations establish effective, scalable and sustainable TPRM capabilities based on six foundational components.

The defined roles, responsibilities and procedures for TPRM activities, which are written and accessible
The centrally located list of all third parties, created using a data governance model and updated regularly, is available to all business owners and contains service-level information about the third parties
The risk criteria that are developed based on the organization’s risk tolerance that informs the TPRM process to assess, prioritize and evaluate third parties
The processes by which risk is classified, ranked and reported; the assessment execution enablers; findings management procedures; and third-party assessment reports
The coordination of TPRM activities with the usage of technology to reduce duplication, speed up the selection and onboarding process, and effectively manage risks
EY Intelligent Digital Assessor (IDA)
IDA is our game-changing AI engine at the core of the EY TPRM solution. It fundamentally reinvents the TPRM function by transforming the role of the human assessor, pairing them with digital assessors capable of scanning the full third-party landscape more comprehensively and then providing foundational assessment reporting.
With fast access to transparent data from the entire third-party ecosystem, the role of the human assessor evolves from a document-gatherer performing routine compliance tasks to a proactive risk preventionist and mitigator. Wherever you are in your TPRM transformation journey, IDA will support you to take powerful leaps forward.
