Delivery of Goods and Services Management
Fulfilling contractual obligations and the overall agreement is about meeting the requirements that you and the other party agreed upon — and having contract management software helps ensure that the products and services delivered meet the agreed-upon terms.
In-House Team Management
Contract management software helps you hold the legal team accountable to their responsibilities. It keeps them on task and on schedule. While you’re monitoring the status of contracts from real-time dashboards, your team receives automated alerts, including escalation notifications, about pending tasks. An automated system helps prioritize tasks, tighten up processes and keep the legal team operating at its most efficient.
Change Management
Change doesn’t necessarily have to create chaos. An automated contract management system can track and store changes, comments, version histories and revisions in one searchable system. When contracts are made way in advance, sometimes changes are necessary — the market evolves, product availability goes up and down, service requirements shift — and contract management software helps your legal team handle these changes smoothly by storing amendments and attachments with the original contract, and enabling you to add contractual obligation deadlines.
Client Relationship Management
When all of the above is well-managed, it shows your customer that your company is well-run and helps sell your team and organization to the customer. The individual parts — staying organized through the contract creation process, getting real-time status updates from dashboards, executing the contract on time, getting automated reminders so contractual obligations are fulfilled on schedule and as outlined, and producing ad hoc reports — add up. With all of these tools, you’re able to better keep your customer in the loop, communicate better and thus build a stronger relationship with your client.
Manually managing all of these processes requires a dedicated, organized team coupled with robust software to manage the contract workflow. Schedule a live demo to see how software can help manage and improve all of these moving parts.
