During the rollout of a new analytics platform, the program manager wants to document requirements for a vendor's system responsiveness, availability, and support. Which action helps hold the vendor accountable for delivering these obligations?
Include a concise note in the project plan acknowledging the vendor's responsibilities and use informal reminders as needed
Incorporate specific targets, structured measurement protocols, and regular review intervals into a formal agreement with the vendor
Negotiate general reliability clauses in a statement of work and invite the vendor to propose corrective measures if issues arise
Schedule routine status updates with the vendor, relying on day-to-day collaboration rather than documented requirements
Placing clear targets in a contract with defined oversight steps creates binding accountability for the vendor's performance. Simply referencing general commitments or relying on informal approaches leaves key requirements undefined, leading to weak enforcement if performance degrades.
