Completing the Global Risk Exchange Assessment

The Global Risk Exchange Assessment Process

To complete your assessment in the Global Risk Exchange, follow these steps:

Step 1: Join the Global Risk ExchangeThere are two ways to join the Exchange – via a customer invitation or by claiming your company through our online vendor profiles. If you receive a customer request, you will receive a notification from ProcessUnity with instructions.

Step 2: Complete and Submit the QuestionnaireThird parties can choose to complete the questionnaire manually, or expedite the process with our TPRM platform. Simply upload any relevant documentation — including SOC 2 reports, ISO certifications, completed questionnaires, policies, procedures, and more — via our secure portal, and let our purpose-built AI technology review them for you.

Step 3: Review Progress and Track StatusThroughout the process, you can review and track your progress via a high-level dashboard and filtering capabilities. Progress can also be tracked on the Control Family level.

Step 4: Validate Your AssessmentNote that if your customer has requested validation, your assessment will be independently validated by one of our trusted assurance partners.

Step 5: Review Your Final AssessmentUpon completion of the assessment, you review the completed assessment, including analysis details, to understand the results before deciding to provide access to your customer(s).

Step 6: Respond to Authorization RequestsIf a customer requests access to your ProcessUnity report, you will receive an authorization request which you can approve or deny.

Step 7: Share Your Final AssessmentOnce completed, you can share your completed assessment with as many of your customers as you like at no cost, eliminating redundant, bespoke requests and speeding up your own sales cycle.

Step 8: Get Onboarding SupportWhen completing a Global Risk Exchange assessment, our Third-Party Onboarding and Exchange Support teams are there to help. Once you have joined the Exchange, ProcessUnity’s Third-Party Onboarding Team will reach out to help get you up and running.
At any point during or after the assessment process, ProcessUnity’s Exchange Support Team will answer any questions you have. Additionally, we offer extensive training guides to support assessment completion and sharing.

Quick Facts

• You are always in control of your data. No data is provided to your customers without your approval.
• There is no cost to complete a ProcessUnity assessment or share it with customers who are not on the Exchange.
• You can log in and update your assessment anytime, even after sharing it.
• Customers typically request a framework (e.g. “60 critical controls”) primarily driven by your shared risk/business relationship or industry requirements.
• You may complete just the requested framework, or you can complete the largest framework at any time, which will automatically satisfy any smaller requested framework.
• Once you share the assessment, your customer(s) will see your answers, top risks, public comments, and your ProcessUnity report.
• The Auto Validation feature saves you time by highlighting inconsistencies and contradictions, so you can adjust and correct your assessment before you share it.
• Your customer will state their recency expectation (e.g. “re-attest every 12 months”) within their request.
