Vendor Selection Questionnaire and Reference Check

This document is a vendor selection questionnaire that outlines specific inquiries directed at potential vendors. It includes questions regarding the average time required for customers to achieve SOC2 and HIPAA compliance, the company's history, employee count, and customer distribution across regions such as Canada and the US. The questionnaire also seeks information about the vendor's audit experience, onboarding processes, and the frequency of interactions during fieldwork. Additionally, it inquires about the qualifications of the account and customer success managers, the consistency of the audit team, and any value-added services offered. Furthermore, the document requests details on pricing, payment methods, and references. The reference check section includes questions aimed at evaluating the vendor's performance, efficiency, resource allocation, and overall value provided to clients. This structured approach aims to facilitate informed decision-making during the vendor selection process.
