The Cetbix Vendor/Supplier Management System
Adapt risk assessments based on the level of risk that a vendor poses to your business. Utilise security ratings for preliminary evaluations or our collection of standardised security questionnaires for in-depth analysis. SOC-2 audit reports make for simple additions of security evidence.
The Cetbix Vendor System generates reports to help you define and monitor your company's goals and supplier relationships. You have the ability to track data over time and generate reports, with threats automatically detected. The Cetbix Vendor Management System comprehensively describes your vendor management process while maintaining confidentiality and integrity. As a SaaS solution, Cetbix guarantees the availability of the services provided. Do you need a vendor management system? Procurement managers can use the Cetbix Vendor Management System to keep vendor data up to date and measure vendor performance on a regular basis.
Based on the evidence that is currently available, risks are automatically identified and categorised by severity for your evaluation. Using a simple assessment methodology, you can request the remediation of important vendor risks and waive non-critical risks for later evaluation.
Capture any risk insights and red flags in the security posture of your third-party vendor in a report format. Risk assessments are saved as auditable documents, and can be exported as a PDF. Close the loop on your risk assessments by setting a reassessment date.

Does your business monitor comparative performance measures to foster relationships with suppliers and increase supply chain effectiveness? The primary duties of procurement departments are to assess, locate, and keep track of the best suppliers based on standards that satisfy the demands of the company. The procurement staff must manage suppliers and keep positive supplier relationships. Companies can use the Cetbix Vendor Management System performance scorecards to assess and monitor how vendors are performing in relation to their contractual duties and how they stack up against the competition.
The procurement department can keep an updated list of preferred suppliers with the help of Cetbix Vendor Management System's features, which also encourage suppliers to improve in certain areas in order to be added to or remain on the preferred supplier list. When suppliers match their internal procedures with corporate objectives, business opportunities increase and relationships with them are strengthened.
Obtaining managerial support can be difficult. The strongest arguments show how enhancing supplier performance helps companies achieve their goals and success strategies by revealing hidden cost drivers, reducing risks, raising performance standards and productivity, and making sure that company values and supplier compliance are upheld.
As previously stated, you can use a variety of KPIs from the Cetbix Vendor Management System to gauge how well your suppliers are performing. The company's goals determine how the key performance indicators (KPIs) are weighted. For instance, since some businesses base their image on using sustainable materials, sourcing quality is more significant than finding the best deal.
Scorecards are used to assess performance. In Cetbix, different scorecards related to the provider's performance are predefined, outlined and prioritised. You also have the option to define your own scorecards, as most organisations have overlapping criteria for measuring performance.
