Your IT supplier is an important partner for your business operations. You rely on their services, products, expertise, and support for the continuity of your business processes. But what if your IT supplier gets into trouble? What if they go bankrupt, are taken over, lose their quality, or need to increase their prices to survive? How can you prepare for such a possible disruption of the IT service provider or the termination of your cooperation?  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Het is belangrijk om vooraf inzicht te hebben in de afhankelijkheid en de mogelijke opties indien het fout gaat. Hieronder staan enkele overwegingen om de situatie te beoordelen, de risico's te analyseren en een actieplan te maken.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

How dependent are you on your IT supplier? How satisfied are you with their performance, service, and price? How much confidence do you have in their future continuity and stability?
