HealthEquity takes on supplier risk with Graphite
Before Graphite, HealthEquity collected only basic supplier information, and that data was managed manually, leaving few resources to strengthen and expand their supplier evaluation process.
Implementing HealthEquity has made life easier for stakeholders at HealthEquity by validating and centralizing supplier data, as well as automatically evaluating supplier risk.
Understanding supplier risk management
What is supplier risk management?
Forming a key part of an organization’s overall risk management strategy, supplier risk management is the process of tracking, assessing, and mitigating supplier risk.
Why is supplier risk management important?
Supplier risk management helps to avoid the financial, ethical, environmental, and reputational risks associated with suppliers. The greater the number of suppliers, the more significant the risk management process becomes. From delivery disruptions to compliance failures, there are a vast variety of risks that can compromise the resilience of your organization’s supply chain.
When should supplier risk management take place?
Risk management should be ongoing, and integrated into each step of the supplier management process. Risk management should be incorporated into supplier procurement, onboarding, and lifecycle management. Supplier risk management is particularly important during the vendor procurement stage, and a comprehensive supplier risk assessment featuring a supplier scorecard can help facilitate this.
