Governing the Extended Enterprise: Modernizing Third-Party Risk for a Dynamic World

Today’s organizations operate in an extended enterprise, a complex web of third-party relationships that directly impact performance, compliance, and reputation. Yet many organizations still manage third-party risk through disconnected processes, manual workflows, and siloed systems, limiting visibility and making it difficult to respond to change.

The reality is that third-party risk doesn’t stop at onboarding. It evolves continuously, influenced by shifting regulations, emerging risks, and changes within both your organization and your partners.

This webinar with Michael Rasmussen, GRC Analyst & Pundit at GRC 20/20 Research will explore how to take a more structured and sustainable approach to third-party risk management that supports ongoing monitoring, clearer accountability, and better alignment between risk, compliance, and business objectives.

What You’ll Learn

• Why traditional, siloed approaches to third-party risk often fail to provide full visibility and control
• How to move beyond onboarding to manage third-party risk across the full relationship lifecycle
• What “360° risk awareness” looks like in practice and how to achieve it
• Key elements of a more coordinated third-party governance model
• How to improve consistency, accountability, and audit readiness in your program
