Lifecycle
Six stages, one queue
From intake to renewal, every vendor follows the same instrumented path.
Intake
Procurement triggers a workflow with data classification, system access, and contract metadata.
Tier
Auto-tier by data sensitivity, geographic exposure, and infrastructure footprint.
Assess
Route the right questionnaire, request evidence, capture attestations.
Approve
Risk owner signs off, conditions are recorded against contract clauses.
Monitor
Continuous monitoring on certs, posture, breach intel, and SLA telemetry.
Renew
Re-trigger assessment ahead of renewal — never let a contract auto-renew unaware.
