Risk Assessments Dashboard

Peter Campbell Updated by Peter Campbell

This dashboard provides an insight into the four Risk Assessments that are shipped with the out-of-the-box configuration. Each tab focuses on the responses provided to the different risk assessments.

Risk & Assurances

This tab is to assist users in reviewing responses to the preconfigured Supplier Risk & Assurance Information Request Form assessment.

This is unique among the risk assessments as it does not have a singular focus. Each question surrounds a specific risk that is separate from the others and might require closer attention.

As a result, each question is reported on individually in this dashboard. There are number tiles to reflect the responses to each question, showcasing the numbers of suppliers who have not answered the question with the preferred response, and accompanying filters. Similar to the Team Governance dashboard, the available values within these filters have been restricted so that the options that can be selected will only show the records that have a potential risk and need to be investigated further.

Once a risk has been identified, it should be added to the Risks & Issues section of the supplier record.

The two number tiles at the top right corner of the page provide a summary view of the risk level across your supplier base.  The green tile displays the number of responses with no answers that pose a risk to your organisation, while the red tile shows the number of responses with at least one answer that may present a risk.

Modern Day Slavery

This tab is to assist users in reviewing responses to the preconfigured Modern Day Slavery Compliance Information Request Form assessment as well as the requirement for this compliance that has been stated.

The two visuals allow users to view the number of suppliers that have active contracts which require Modern Day Slavery Compliance, and the number of suppliers with active contracts that report to be compliant in their assessment response.

To further this compliance check, there is a table in the top right corner of the dashboard that highlights whether the MDS compliance requirements logged against a supplier’s contract record with classifications, are met by their assessment response.

Finally, individual question issues can be identified in the table below. Viewing all responses in a single table helps recognise trends and highlight common issues. This, in turn, can prompt reviews to determine additional steps for improving existing processes and preventing future issues.

If these questions highlight a risk for a supplier, that risk should be added to the Risks & Issues section of the supplier record.

GDPR

This tab is to assist users in reviewing responses to the preconfigured GDPR Compliance Information Request Form assessment as well as the requirement for this compliance that has been stated.

The two visuals allow users to view the number of suppliers that have active contracts which require GDPR Compliance, and the number of suppliers with active contracts that report to be compliant in their assessment response.

To further this compliance check, there is a table in the top right corner of the dashboard that showcases whether the GDPR compliance requirements logged against a supplier’s contract record with classifications, are met by their assessment response.

Finally, individual question issues can be identified in the table below. Viewing all responses in a single table helps recognise trends and highlight common issues. This, in turn, can prompt reviews to determine additional steps for improving existing processes and preventing future issues.

If these questions highlight a risk for a supplier, that risk should be added to the Risks & Issues section of the supplier record.

Sustainability Management

This tab is to assist users in reviewing responses to the preconfigured Sustainability & ESG Information Request Form assessment.

EU law requires all large companies and all public companies to disclose information regarding the impact of their activities on people and the environment. Therefore, the visuals that have been configured for this tab centre around these themes.

There is a visual simply for suppliers that are reporting to hold a sustainability policy, alongside compliant large suppliers and compliant PLC suppliers.

To try and align the layout of this tab with the previous two for ease of use, there is a small table in the top right corner of the dashboard that solely reports on whether the supplier is reporting to hold a sustainability policy.

Also, similarly to the previous two tabs, individual question issues can be identified in the table below. Viewing all responses in a single table helps recognise trends and highlight common issues. This, in turn, can prompt reviews to determine additional steps for improving existing processes and preventing future issues.

If these questions highlight a risk for a supplier, that risk should be added to the Risks & Issues section of the supplier record.
