Contract Insights

Does your organization have a high volume of contracts of ranging complexity?  Do you need these contracts searched, have important contract data extracted, and be stored within an easily accessible contract data repository?  Don't leave your team overwhelmed with manual contract data extraction and legal discovery processes.  Instead, leverage intelligent contract data extraction with the help of powerful contract intelligence within a leading-edge contract management software system.

Reviewing contract risk can be time-consuming, challenging, and stressful.  Manually assessing risk factors can cost an organization extra time and money while increasing the risk of inadvertent human oversights.  While you can do your best to carefully track risk factors, including negligent clause language, it can prove challenging when dealing with multiple stakeholders and pressing deadlines.  Read on to learn how three contract risk management tools proffered by contract management software can help protect your organization from the risks of poor contract management and, in some cases, your job.

Robust contract data management, contract analytics, and contract data security provide the necessary insights and protection for organizations to cut contract lifecycle times with enhanced control, governance, security, and visibility.  Organizations can transform contracts into powerful, data-driven sources of business intelligence that support contract strategy, contract management KPIs, and goals with the help of leading contract management software.  Here’s how.

To avoid issues such as lost document versions and contract lifecycle bottlenecks, CobbleStone Software’s latest release of its celebrated contract management software – Contract Insight® 17.7.0 – offers a PC Helper App that seamlessly integrates with MS Word. Here’s how to use that functionality.
