Third Party Risk Assessment Advantages

EDI connectivity to multiple VANs. |
|
|
B2B web portals for a portion of the
trading partners and/or
trading-partner-specific portals. |
|
|
Internal partners as well as external
trading partners. |
|
|
Third-party processors - service bureaus
- that become part of the supply chain. |
|

Changing custody of the data at various
points along the supply chain. |

Multiple front-end and back-end
applications feeding to and from the
EDI/B2B network. |
