Who should submit the form?
Departments should submit this form if they are interested in working with any IT vendor (new or existing) for software, hardware, and IT service needs.
Why should the form be submitted?
It is important this form is submitted so that procurement can collect all the pertinent information regarding the vendor and any relevant IT information. Providing that information starts the process of evaluating the risks of the contract and determining if information security would be violated.
When should the form be submitted?
This form should be submitted before entering into contractual obligations with any IT vendor.
What process/steps should the requestor expect?
The questionnaire is used to help evaluate and record information about IT vendors as part of our third-party risk assessment process.
The form needs to be filled out as completely as possible, as the contacts listed for the vendor will be sent the Third Party Questionnaire.
Upon submission of the completed Third Party Questionnaire, we will process the review. If more information is needed before a final decision is made, we will reach out to the submitter at that time.
