Client Type: Financial institution

Client Overview

Our client, an esteemed financial institution, was grappling with the challenge of managing an extensive and diverse portfolio of contracts. These were scattered across various platforms, leading to disorganisation and a lack of cohesive strategy to actively track obligations and deliverables. The inconsistency was affecting efficiency, risk management, and overall transparency within the organisation.

The Problem

Our client's core issues were:

1. Disjointed Contract Management: Contracts were spread across multiple platforms without any centralised method for tracking and managing them. This led to confusion, duplication, and potential errors.

2. Inefficient Request and Drafting Process: Requesting and drafting new agreements were tedious and time-consuming, lacking standardisation and oversight.

3. Lack of Transparency: Without a clear view of the progress and details of agreements, our client was unable to monitor contract performance, leading to missed obligations, loss of potential opportunities and the risk of possible legal or compliance issues.

4. Ineffective Obligation Management: The absence of a dedicated system to handle end-to-end contract obligations meant that many aspects of the contract lifecycle were handled manually, resulting in inefficiencies and compliance challenges.

The Solution: Contract Corridor

Our Contract Corridor tool was implemented as a comprehensive solution to solve our client’s concerns and improved their management of the entire contract lifecycle:

1. Streamlined Request and Drafting: From the inception of an agreement, Contract Corridor streamlined the process of requesting and drafting new contracts, with standardised templates and automated workflows that ensured consistency and efficiency.

2. Centralised Tracking System: The tool introduced a centralised platform to track the progress of agreements and record associated content. This granted our client the much-needed transparency it was lacking over its contract lifecycle. Through our innovative platform, our client was able to have real-time insight into contract status.

3. End-to-End Obligation Management: Contract Corridor's functionality extended to every stage of the contract lifecycle. It provided an integrated approach to corporate legal contract processes, encompassing everything from drafting and negotiation to compliance monitoring and renewal management.

4. Enhanced Collaboration: By unifying all contracts within a single platform, Contract Corridor fostered collaboration between different departments and stakeholders, allowing for a more cohesive approach to contract management.
