- How can we improve a risk rating Venminder assigned to our company?
-
Control Assessments are standardized assessments that Venminder conducts on vendors. Each vendor is reviewed consistently with the same criteria. If your company received a risk rating on a control that you believe needs additional review, we welcome your outreach to our team. We will be able to work with you to help you understand the assigned rating, and also verify with you if any documents were not provided to us during the review process. Often, if a document is not provided during the review process, this impacts our assigned rating since controls cannot be verified.
