Vendor Governance FAQ

Common questions about vendor governance, escalation, oversight discipline, and sponsor-side operating boundaries.

Frequently asked questions

What is vendor governance in this context?

It is the structured oversight of outsourced study functions through defined cadence, escalation, and documented follow-up.

Does vendor governance mean acting as the CRO?

No. Governance support should not be described in a way that suggests 4Cs is the prime CRO unless that is explicitly true and approved.
