19 Reducing Inherent Risk Is the Vendor Financial Institution Specific? Do they have a user group? How much verification information do you receive? What type of Audit and Reporting do they have? Automated systems vs manual processes / spreadsheets

20 Best Practices for New Contracts Take control of the references you receive – Core Processor – Geography – Size – Ask for More Ask the references the same questions Increase your peer group Attend user groups Leverage your other vendor relationships Fill out the risk assessment

21 Ask the hard questions Vendor When customers don’t renew, what are the reasons? What items are not included in proposal? How do you prioritize your enhancements? References What was unexpected vs. your expectation? When issues arise, how are they handled? How honest do you feel the company and sales rep are?
