Managing, storing, and organizing files and attachments pertaining to contract management processes without the right the right tools can be challenging.  Limitations that may come with exporting, downloading, and storing contract files and attachments manually can lead to disastrous consequences - including (but not limited to) delays with gathering contract request materials, the use of obsolete versions during contract authoring, lapses in contract negotiation collaboration, approval and eSignature delays, missed key dates and milestones, squandered opportunities, and other contract lifecycle bottlenecks.

Contract writing - also known as contract authoring - is a critical stage of the contract lifecycle.  The contract writing process involves contract parties putting into written copy the terms of a contract.  One extremely important facet of contract writing is  contract clause management.  Insufficient contract authoring procedures as they pertain to contract clause management often rely upon disorganized tracking of versions, a lack of unified contracts and subcontracts, and - unfortunately - scattered clauses.  Such processes can leave your organization with contracts that are missing clauses, an overlooked mass of key dates and milestones, and unified contract lifecycle management.
