12.12.5 Supervisors sub-point #3

Re #3: "Ensure that service provider contracts adequately address IM IT." I would suggest that it is not necessarily the responsibility of supervisors. While contract management/oversight is often responsibility of folks who are supervisors, it is not a one to one alignment with their supervision role.

Suggest that this responsibility be called out for procurement and/or contract management.

Related is definition of Supervisor in Section 12.4 - I believe combining employee reporting structure and a person managing a service provider contractor should be identified separately as the relationship is not the same, especially as contracts can be for products/services and not just people/resources.

Review Section 12.12.5 sub-point 3 and the related definition of Supervisor in Section 12.4. Clarify whether responsibility for service-provider contract management belongs to procurement or contract management, and distinguish employee reporting from management of service-provider contractors; done when both sections express those relationships clearly.
