Challenge

Marion County was determined to find a contract management software that could alleviate on-going procurement issues that were prevalent. One of the main challenges that they faced was that they didn’t have their internal processes documents. They were looking for a contract management tool to help streamline their contracting and procurement processes and assist them with evaluating how specific work 'moves' through the county. A very decentralized contract environment also played into their struggles and influenced their move from a paper process to an automated, centralized process.

Solution

Marion County chose CobbleStone Software Contract Insight® for its ability to handle the full procurement and contract lifecycle. The Contracts and Procurement Manager at Marion County stated, “We chose it [CobbleStone Contract Insight] because it was a cradle to grave approach to procurement. We could get one system versus 3 individual systems.”
