The Third Party System is compatible with Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE), Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox. However there may be slight differences when using different browsers.
The Third Party System is accessed online by requesters and authorizers, who are staff members with network access:
Requesters can:
search for existing third parties;
request for the extension or addition of an existing third party's access; and
record a new third party’s details and send a request for their access requirements in the organisational unit (org unit) to an organisational unit authority or authorizer (usually the line manager of this org unit).
Authorizers can:
carry out the functions of requesters, and
review third party requests sent by staff in their org unit, and, view the request, then either approve or deny these requests, as necessary.
The third party data and access requirements are communicated from the Third Party System, via the Identity Vault, to all consumer systems (e.g. Access Control system, Traffic Control system etc.).
