de.iterate is an Australian GRC platform with third-party and vendor risk management built in. Every supplier that touches your data or keeps your services running carries some of your risk. de.iterate keeps them all in one register, with security scoring, due diligence and risk assessments attached to each supplier record.
Instead of managing policies in one place, risks in another, evidence in folders, and audits through a last-minute scramble, de.iterate connects the whole system. That means better visibility, clearer ownership, stronger assurance and less time lost to manual admin. The current platform spans policies, assurance tasks, registers, evidence, reporting, Trust Centre capabilities, auditor access and support for multiple frameworks.
We help you get your ducks in a row.
“It’s probably fine”
Your supplier due diligence is a questionnaire sent in 2023 and a general feeling that everything’s probably fine.
Larger organisations have a third-party risk program, and it covers the suppliers it was designed for. Procurement onboards them, security assesses the ones tagged critical, legal holds the contracts, and the platform lists 1,400 vendors with a tier against each. Tier 1 gets a questionnaire every year. Tiers 2 and 3 were assessed once, at onboarding, by whoever was in the role at the time. Renewals go through without a reassessment, because renewal sits with procurement and assessment sits with security, and the two systems have never been introduced.
Meanwhile, most of your suppliers have added AI features since you last checked, and nobody has asked where your data goes now.
Supplier risk stays manageable when every supplier has an owner and a review date, the due diligence lives on the supplier’s record rather than in an inbox, and you can see what each supplier touches before anything goes wrong. de.iterate is built around that. Suppliers link to the risks, assets and incidents they relate to, questionnaires and assessments sit on the record where the next reviewer will find them, and reviews come due on a schedule rather than when someone remembers.
Record each supplier with an owner, review dates and custom fields for whatever your procurement team tracks. Link suppliers to the risks, assets and incidents they relate to, so when a supplier has a bad day you can see straight away what it affects.
Send supplier questionnaires as custom checklists directly from de.iterate, and keep the responses on the supplier record where the next reviewer or auditor will look for them (and find the relevant evidence).
Using de.iterate, you can run a supply chain risk assessment for each supplier and link it straight to the supplier record, so the assessment and the relationship stay together.
Score each supplier's security, then use dashboard widgets to show your supply chain risk at your next management review.
Each supplier carries a review cycle and an owner. de.iterate tracks the next review date, reminds the owner before it falls due and flags anything overdue, so a reassessment happens before the contract renews rather than being discovered after it.
Start from questionnaire templates written by our GRC experts, including questions on AI, and where your data is stored and processed. Tailor them to each supplier tier, so the questions you ask today cover the risks suppliers have added since 2023.
Most questions about supplier risk come down to scope: who counts as a supplier, how often to check on them, and which ones deserve the attention. The answers below cover the detail, and the first one settles the question that comes up most, whether the AI tools your teams have adopted belong on the register.
Yes. If a tool touches your data, it's a supplier. Record where the data goes, whether the supplier trains its AI on your data, and how you'd get your data back if you stopped using it. Our free AI Governance Tips guide covers this and more.
It depends on how much risk each one carries. In de.iterate, you set a review period on each supplier record, and the Compliance Calendar will remind the owner when a review is coming up.
Third-party risk management is how you identify, assess and monitor the risks that come from working with suppliers, contractors and other outside organisations. Frameworks such as ISO 27001 and SOC 2 expect you to manage it throughout each supplier relationship.
de.iterate's vendor security scoring shows which suppliers need the most attention, and supply chain dashboard widgets give you the overall picture.
Yes. de.iterate lets you link each supplier to the risks, assets and incidents it relates to, so supplier issues show up in your risk profile.
Yes. de.iterate's automated import process brings your supplier list across, so you don't have to retype it.
Yes. Custom dashboards in de.iterate show your board and management team where each audit is up to and which findings are still open.
From setup to scale, every feature is designed to help your team save time, stay focused, and drive meaningful results.
de.iterate combines technology with hands-on support from experienced GRC professionals based in Australia. From onboarding through to certification, our team works with you to build momentum quickly, helping many organisations get audit-ready in less than 12 weeks and providing practical support through external audits and ongoing compliance activities.
Great compliance is not built in the two weeks before an audit. de.iterate helps you stay ready year-round with assurance tasks, checklists, live registers, reporting and a compliance calendar that keeps momentum going.
From start-ups to enterprise, de.iterate supports multiple frameworks in one system, including ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001, Privacy Acts, SOC 2, DIP, Essential Eight and more. You can grow your compliance maturity without rebuilding everything from scratch.
Many tools stop at storage. de.iterate goes further by connecting your policies, controls, evidence, registers and assurance activity in context. That means your documentation is not just centralised, it is structured, linked and easier to defend.
We believe compliance should be simpler, clearer and more achievable. That is why de.iterate combines structured workflows, smart documentation, migration support and guided onboarding with a platform that is intuitive enough for teams to use every day.
de.iterate is designed for the way organisations actually work. Policies, risks, assets, incidents, suppliers, evidence, audits and reporting all sit in one integrated platform, so compliance becomes part of business as usual.
