Third-party management: Real-Life Experience

During our consulting services we recognized a really critical issue:

There is a misalignment between the parties contracting with third parties and those receiving the services. Hopefully, the technical team is aware of their service level commitments, but they may be unaware of other important obligations, which could lead to serious issues. In my case, for example, the supplier (third-party) was responsible for regularly updating the monitoring tool. However, the update process had been neglected for a long time, eventually resulting in a prolonged outage of monitoring. Third-party management is a very important but neglected area. Do you agree? 

Make sure your suppliers (third parties) are effectively managed in your organization.

Please keep in mind that "supplier" and "third-party" are used interchangeable.
