Challenge

Numerous missed expiration dates and grant requirements were two large factors that led El Paso County, Texas to seek a software system that could support in-depth, centralized contract management. They could no longer take risks with their contract deadlines, which was a problem they were trying to solve for decades. The lack of communication between departments and lackadaisical approval processes made it even more difficult for El Paso County, Texas’ deadlines to be met. They needed a centralized repository where they could quickly and effectively find and manage all of their contracts.

Solution

CobbleStone’s Contract Insight® has allowed El Paso County to develop reporting functions and their Contract Report Card System, consisting of a series of drill down reports. This has allowed Contract Management the ability to give a big picture view of the contract situation at any point in time. CobbleStone Contract Insight has empowered the County’s departments with core contract knowledge and responsibility. The County also developed a contracts deliverables section so that departments can better manage their individual contracts. Overall, the contract system has reduced the number of expired contracts and streamlined how and when departments address expiring contracts. This has improved the quality of service delivery to the County as well as established greater accountability on vendors.
