Request Your First Vendor Assessment

Use your vendor initial risk profile (IRP) to decide which vendor to assess.

If you need additional guidance, view Introduction to Assessments  and select the Selecting Vendors to Assess tab.

Now that you have a vendor selected, it's time to request your first vendor assessment. You have multiple ways to request an assessment in the portal:

To request a new vendor assessment, do any of the following:

• From the Command Center, select Create New Assessment Request.
• Navigate to Assessments > Request Assessment.
• Navigate to Assessments Overview, select New Assessment Request.

Follow the onscreen prompts to complete the assessment request. For step-by-step instructions, see Request a New Vendor Assessment.

When you submit the request, the CORL Portal creates a ticket and alerts CORL to create the assessment. If you made a mistake when you created the request, and need to make changes, or if you want to view the progress of your request, you can view the ticket in the Support Center. For more information, see Obtain Support.

After CORL creates the assessment, and starts the process with the vendor, you can use the Assessments Overview page to view all of your assessments. For more information, see View the Assessments Queue.

Let's take a deep dive into what happens when CORL assessess vendors.
