Third-party risk
Automotive compliance and due diligence
Third-party risk management solutions for companies in the automotive industry to efficiently source and onboard suppliers, distributors and resellers, meet global regulations and safeguard business reputation.
From production to sales, the automotive industry involves a vast network of third parties - suppliers, dealers, distributors – each with compliance and regulatory requirements that need to be met for effective third-party risk management.
The automotive industry faces a complex supply chain and market. Sourcing from low-cost manufacturing destinations brings the challenges of poor visibility and the need to balance cost-competitiveness against required quality benchmarks while meeting environmental, social and governance standards.
Companies in the automotive industry face multiple risks in the supply chain and distribution network – from difficulty entering new markets due to a dependance on third parties, to dual use of some vehicles and expanded government regulations.
Third-party risk management solutions are essential to manage and mitigate integrity, ESG, operational and other risks that companies in the automotive industry may face.
