Vendor interrogation kit

A vendor interrogation kit is a structured set of questions a buyer asks a vendor to expose risk, hidden cost, and uncommitted claims before signing.

Good interrogation questions come with a good-answer and red-flag-answer guide so a non-specialist can read the room. Benchside generates 40–60 calibrated questions per deal, sized to the budget and vendor and grouped by category (data migration, integration, licensing, support, security).
