The conversation that built it

Procurement submits a vendor request when a new supplier is needed. Security sends the vendor a security questionnaire. The security team rates the vendor's risk. If the risk is high, legal reviews the data processing agreement. If the risk is low, the vendor goes straight to approval. Legal approves or flags redlines in the DPA. Once approved, the vendor is added to the approved vendor register.
