Contract Management – the need

• Do you know how many contracts your organization has? Who is the owner of your Contract Lifecycle Process?
• Do you know how many of your contracts have Cost Penalties or Legal Liabilities? What is the cumulative value of your potential Liability?
• Are you sure if you are getting charged accurately for your software/ hardware contracts? Are your contracts re‐negotiated before automatic renewal dates?

• Do you know how much time it takes for updating your contracts in case there are new Regulations in place?
• Can you determine all your contracts with a specific entity, or in a specific Country? Or calculate your total contracted revenue expected for the month?
• Do you know how much time does it take to find a contract, send them between different locations? Do you know how easy it is to recover a contract in case it gets lost?
• In case of attrition can you guarantee no loss of correspondence relating to a contract? Would the audit trail remain intact?

If the above problems seem familiar, it’s time to investigate on whether your organization requires an enterprise wide contract management system.
