ROCKVILLE, Md. — Innovative Strategic Solution LLC recently announced that it has signed an exclusive licensing and sales partnership agreement with Sydel Corp. to distribute VendorXpert, a software solution that was specifically created to assist credit unions in addressing regulatory concerns regarding vendor due diligence.
The solution is Web-based and will immediately allow credit unions of any size to develop a vendor assessment methodology and manage the relationships moving forward using a risk-based approach that encompasses enhanced due diligence.
Ken deMello, president of ISS, pointed to the NCUA's Letters to Credit Unions (08-CU-09, 07-CU-13, and 01-CU-20) as explicit direction that credit unions must assess the risks of every vendor utilized by the organization and monitor those vendors to ensure that the assessment remains valid. "This is a significant regulatory burden and credit unions need to find a way to comply," said deMello.
