Join us for an in-depth look at the Standardized Information Gathering Questionnaire (SIG) and its evolution into the web based SIG EV platform. This session will focus exclusively on the SIG Excel and SIG EV, demonstrating how organizations can modernize their third-party risk management approach.

The team will walk through how the SIG Evolution (SIG EV) serves as a SaaS-based upgrade to the traditional SIG Excel, offering a more intuitive interface, secure information sharing, live dashboards, built-in file validation, and role-based access. You’ll also gain clarity on when to leverage each version—whether you’re a vendor responding to assessments or an outsourcer managing third-party risk. This session is ideal for those exploring Third-Party Risk Management tools and looking to streamline their assessment processes using industry-standard frameworks.

(Please note this session is intended for those seeking to learn more about Shared Assessments' offerings - no CPEs offered).

This Committee examines existing and emerging “best practices” to help address the challenges organizations face in managing third-party risk.  Committee meetings typically include a “Shop Talk” with guest speakers, panelists, or open discussion on topics prioritized by the Committee participants through surveys and polling questions.  Examples of previously examined topics include third-party contract development, inherent risk ratings, scoping assessments, maximizing continuous monitoring systems, identifying and managing fourth parties, integrating artificial intelligence into risk management, resourcing models, and articulating a program’s business value. 

The output of this Committee includes industry briefing and white papers, practitioner guidelines and work aids, industry call-to-action pieces, and blogs intended to enhance third-party risk management practices. This group coordinates with other Shared Assessments Committees when appropriate.
