Identifying Vendor Contacts
Identifying current contact information for vendors has been a struggle for some organizations during the on-boarding phase. What are some helpful tips that your organization has employed to make this process easier? Are there other teams within your organization such as supply chain, legal, or finance that you could cooperate with to retrieve this information?

See my comment to another question: "How does your organization identify and categorize third parties?"
Partner with the teams that run those programs to ensure you are notified proactively. Trying to capture it after the fact is a challenge.
Remember that your vendor's bills are being paid, their people report to managers, change and access requests are being authorized, etc. Leverage that information to determine the appropriate contact.
