"CLM applications have really come to the forefront in the past couple of years. The tumultuous global events that led to the many supply chain disruptions have directly impacted interest in the capabilities provided by these applications. The days of CLM providers simply serving as authoring and repository tools are over. Buyers need the ability to quickly assess risk, drill into geographic and inflationary exposure, and predict the impact of potential future events. The CLM space has stepped up and is reaping the rewards."
