opensourceCM - Stepping back to see the bigger picture
Organizations spend so much time on negotiating good contracts to let it just grow mold in a filing cabinet. Even a good contract when signed, can become bad through mismanagement and can cause a company loss of funds in penalties and aggravation. This is where a good contract management tool steps in. Knowing that you can’t help someone who doesn't want help, we find that the best evangelical approach is to invite the unconvinced to take a step back, and to look a 360 degree view at how much of the value of their contracts is really being realized.
Stepping back allows many to realize the strategic & revenue potential of being able to fully control their contracts. The view from afar raises questions that help redefine contract management goals; are your contracts in full compliance? Do you know how many contracts are to be renewed in the next thirty days? Do you know which contracts are stuck, and where? Do you employ an approval process? Do you know where each contract is?
In some cases, clients are not even aware of how much revenue their organization is leaking due to deficient contract management. Even when companies are convinced they already have a process that works perfectly, they are most likely missing out on the big benefits of a serious contract management platform. It’s the difference between administering contracts and managing them, the difference between knowing when contracts are expiring, and knowing how much you’ve lost due to contracts that where not renegotiated on time. A solid contract management platform will pro-actively help an organization:
Gain more visibility and insight into its contracts
Improve overall compliance
Automate contract authoring
Improve contract renegotiation
Realize full contract value
