TPRM Program Implementation and Development

Based on your capabilities assessment results, Schneider Downs also can develop a comprehensive implementation project plan with targeted goals and benchmarking.

This helps to operationalize a Third-Party Risk Management program to achieve the targeted levels of maturity and build the capabilities an organization envisions. Organizations may know where they want their TPRM program to be in the years to come, but without a fine-tuned road map to guide the process, it can become an insurmountable task.

TPRM Program implementation can include the following:

• Define/document governance/reporting process and roles/responsibilities
• Enhance/develop policies, standards, procedures
• Define/document TPRM lifecycle process
• Define/document risk rating scoring and IRQ
• Define/document skillset requirements
• Define/document internal/external communication/sharing protocol
• Develop enterprise-specific TPRM toolkit and define/document measurement/analysis process
• Define/document monitoring/review program

If your business doesn’t have a TPRM program yet, Schneider Downs can work with you to develop a program that is right for your organization. We can help you build a strong foundation and guide you through each component of our model.
