Why manual vendor scoring breaks down

The three problems with
how most teams do this today

Even well-run security teams are working from outdated data. Here's what goes wrong and why it keeps happening.

6–12

Months between assessments

Most organisations reassess vendors annually or at contract renewal. A vendor approved in January looks materially different by Q3 — new sub-processors, changed infrastructure, lapsed certs.

73%

Of questionnaire responses are unverified

Vendors self-report. Teams rarely have the capacity to verify claims against live technical data. The result: a score that reflects what vendors say, not what's actually there.

0

Consistent scoring framework

Without a standardised scorecard, two assessors evaluating the same vendor will reach different conclusions. Inconsistency makes it impossible to compare, prioritise, or defend decisions under audit.
