Churchill and Harriman

It is with pleasure that I compliment and endorse the efforts of Churchill & Harriman on behalf of [client] in connection with [client’s] Service Provider Risk Management Program. On-site risk assessments of selected service providers are a critical component of [client’s] program, itself essential for demonstrating [client’s] satisfaction, in part, of the rigorous risk management requirements established by the Federal Financial Institutions Examination Council (FFIEC). Churchill & Harriman stands side by side with [client], sharing our success in these objectives. Churchill & Harriman has consistently over-performed, delivering services beyond the contractually required minimum. Moreover, Churchill & Harriman has developed and implemented a repeatable, global, end-to-end risk assessment methodology that can be replicated and scaled to meet [client’s] needs.

We chose C&H several years ago to contribute to the ever-increasing maturity of our enterprise risk management program. Since that time, C&H has consulted to [client] on a multitude of projects, and executed several internal risk assessments and external risk assessments, always exceeding [client’s] expectations. C&H is the thought leader on the employment of controls, and international standards including ISO 27001. Their risk assessment and vendor management competencies are unparalleled. C&H has earned my endorsement to any firm requiring enterprise risk management expertise.

It is even more impressive that this has been done during a period of unprecedented change within the information technology organization at [client]. It is a true indication of your company’s professionalism that you have been able to maintain flexibility in light of these change initiatives and at the same time continue to deliver great value to the entire organization. Most of all, I deeply appreciate the substantive results C&H has produced for my colleagues and me. I recognize this is founded on the open and honest lines of communication I have with you and the C&H team. You have earned a meaningful level of trust with me, and I look forward to working with C&H to make a value added difference to [client] in the years to come.    

Churchill & Harriman has been consulting to us on enterprise-wide business risk mitigation matters for seven years now. We continue to receive the same dedicated service and support from C&H that we received from day one. Few business partners have provided such validated ongoing commitment to customer satisfaction.

Our sincere thanks for everything the Churchill & Harriman team has done to help make us world class.

Churchill & Harriman will play a vital role for our new CYBERFIT utility by delivering industry best third- party risk assessment services for the NH-ISAC”, said Denise Anderson, President of NH-ISAC. “Our members will directly benefit from this service and we welcome C&H’s expertise and input in helping solidify their security posture.

Through its membership and contributions to the Shared Assessments Program, Churchill & Harriman has demonstrated its leadership in global vendor management innovation. The Shared Assessments tools contribute to the differentiation of C&H’s program, maximizing risk assessment cost optimization while raising the bar on global information security and privacy protection.  

Practitioners such as Ken Peterson individually and Churchill & Harriman institutionally need to be publicly recognized for the many years they have effectively and humbly raised the bar on words like integrity, trust, quality and selflessness. Ken and C&H have done more for industry and positively touched more lives and institutions than most people know. I am a better person for being associated with Ken and I am proud to have him in my circle of influence.

There are several qualities which set Churchill & Harriman apart from other consulting firms that have worked for me over my career.  These include great depth of professional expertise and experience; an undying commitment to fulfill the client’s needs; a focused professionalism in ensuring that the client always receives accurate, well-written, timely, and comprehensive work products; a willingness to be candid while also being respectful with the client, to ensure his or her best interests are always served even when uncomfortable truths need to be confronted; and a personal and professional integrity, the likes of which I have rarely seen outside of my many years of service in the military.  Churchill & Harriman was always more than a consultancy; they were a true business partner.
