Guidance on calculating software exposure and managing third-party vendor continuity

As an operations, risk, or compliance leader, safeguarding your business from sudden third-party supply chain disruption is essential. Balancing day-to-day resilience with long-term digital strategy can be challenging, especially as reliance on critical, cloud-based SaaS tools continues to grow.

The Escrow Readiness Checklist provides a structured framework to audit your software portfolio. It empowers you to pinpoint which vendors pose an immediate risk to your revenue, evaluate contract vulnerabilities, and calculate a definitive readiness score before a crisis occurs. By proactively identifying gaps, you ensure total operational continuity even if a key supplier faces sudden financial instability, an acquisition pivot, or an unexpected outage.

What you'll get:

  • Risk Framework: A practical system to identify vulnerable software suppliers based on financial, funding, and M&A warning flags.
  • Team Guide: A checklist to align procurement, legal, and IT discussions regarding uptime clauses and software availability.
  • Supplier Scorecard: A definitive metric to prioritise your software escrow needs across five critical operational dimensions.
  • Continuity Tool: A functional conversation starter for resilience planning to test recovery and application rehosting.
