Contract catalogue
The contract catalogue is a central repository on the 3rdRisk platform, fully integrated with the third-party catalogue. With this module, you can easily register all your third-party contracts in one centralised place. Per contract, you can segment them on different risk profiles, get notifications on nearing end-dates, assign ownership and keep track of risk & compliance events during a contract lifecycle.

Audit log
To view the audit log of a contract in your contract catalogue, click on the ID (THC-xxx) of the contract and navigate to the tab Audit logs.
Data integrity is critical for your contract catalogue. That is why the third-party management module comes with a protected audit log that registers all mutations in your contract catalogue. It records:
- Timestamp
- Data adjustment (old value and new value)
- The user account that was used for this update
None of the platform roles (including the platform administrator) can delete or make mutations to this audit log.
Known limitations
- It is currently not possible to do a bulk upload of contracts. Contact Support@3rdRisk.com to discuss bulk upload and integration options.
- You cannot archive or delete contracts. Instead, we recommend setting the status of the contract to inactive or suspended. You can then filter in the catalogue to view active contracts. This ensures audit logs remain intact and no information is lost.
