Halbarad - AI-Native Vendor Risk Management Platform

The Problem

Why Traditional TPRM Fails

Modern businesses move fast. Your risk management shouldn't slow you down.

Stuck in the Slow Lane

“If your TPRM takes months, you're not managing risk; you're blocking revenue.”

Traditional Third-Party Risk Management (TPRM) processes are notoriously sluggish, often becoming the primary bottleneck in procurement and partnership cycles. The reliance on manual data collection, endless email threads, and static spreadsheets means that a simple vendor assessment can drag on for 3 to 6 months. This delay doesn't just frustrate teams; it kills deals and stalls critical business initiatives.

“Your TPRM Isn't Delayed; It's Designed to Slow the Deals”

In today's hyper-competitive market, speed is a competitive advantage. Waiting months to onboard a vendor is no longer acceptable. The manual review of security documents, compliance certifications, and financial records consumes hundreds of hours of analyst time, creating a backlog that prevents security teams from focusing on real threats.

Halbarad's Solution: AI-driven automation that compresses months into hours.

Halbarad revolutionizes this dynamic by leveraging AI to automate the entire ingestion and analysis of vendor data. What used to take several weeks to months now takes minutes to hours. By instantly parsing documents and cross-referencing them against Halbarad's risk management framework, which is aligned to global regulatory requirements and industry standards, we enable you to make informed risk decisions at the speed of business, not the speed of bureaucracy.

The best part is businesses don't need to build a team of highly skilled assessors and don't have to wait for weeks and months to complete vendor due diligence, which is nothing short of a luxury these days.

ProcessUnity reports that traditional manual vendor risk assessments take 3–6 months, while automated ones take 2–4 weeks. (https://www.processunity.com/resources/blogs/manual-vs-automated-vendor-risk-assessment-a-modern-guide-to-tprm/)
Veridion (citing an EY survey) says only 8% of organizations can complete control assessments of third parties within 30 days; most need 31–60 days.
According to a '2025 Impact Report' (HubSpot-hosted), 58% of companies spend more than 30 working hours per week on vendor assessment tasks, and in many cases, teams wait ~12 days on average for a vendor response.

Stuck in the Slow Lane

Traditional TPRM creates 3-6 month bottlenecks that slow deals. Sluggish data collection, email chains and manual reviews.

Broken Assessments

The current assessment model is fundamentally broken. Generic questionnaires generate noise, not insight.

Supply Chain Blind Spots

When your vendor's Nth-party fails, you're exposed, often without warning. The real threat is the vendor in your supply chain you never knew about.

Compliance Driven

Outdated certificates and static reports provide a backward-looking view. Last year's clean SOC2 says nothing about today's risks.

Cyber-only Focus

Traditional TPRM focuses mainly on cyber and a couple of other risk domains however today's supply chain risks are bigger than that.

The Monitoring Mirage

Most TPRM programs default to a predictable but dangerously inadequate pattern of annual assessment in the name of Ongoing Monitoring.

Traditional TPRM solutions stop at your direct vendors. But your real risk doesn't. When your vendor's subcontractor gets breached, you're exposed. Halbarad maps these hidden relationships automatically.
