To maintain consistent management of supply chain risk, it is essential to periodically confirm that suppliers meet their contractual obligations.

Risk Assurance: Verifies that suppliers adhere to security standards and commitments.

Consistency: Regular checks prevent lapses in compliance and identify potential risks early.

Supplier Audits: Include reviewing security controls, data protection measures, and compliance with regulations.

Incorrect Options:

A . Seeking feedback from procurement: Useful but not directly related to risk management.

C . Counting incident tickets: Measures service performance, not risk consistency.

This is a good question. I'm considering option A - regularly seeking feedback from the procurement team. They would have the best insight into supplier responsiveness and any emerging risks.
