Service Provider Checklist is great but surprised that professional liability insurance and others are not listed?

Thanks,

Janine

Thanks for the comment. Insurance was included (see the last bullet under the “Controls” check-box), but perhaps given its importance it should have its own check-box. It is also a part of the due-diligence (pre-contract) checklist. Send me a separate email and I’ll be glad to send that to you.

Very good article and checklist. I would be interested in viewing the “due diligence checklist” that you referenced above if that’s possible.

Thanks very much in advance.

Great article and checklist. Is there a new updated version of the service provider contract checklist? I’m also very interested in viewing the “due diligence checklist” that you referenced above if that’s possible.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Jose, glad you enjoyed the post! I am in the process of updating both checklists to accommodate the latest guidance from the OCC. Send me an email at tom(at)safesystems(dot)com and I’ll get them to you as soon as they are complete.
