Enhancing Contract Intelligence with Collaboration and Analytics - Recording

Today, there is a significant focus on improving the quality and availability of information for managing contracts. IACCM research shows that the level of collaboration [internal and external] and visibility has a direct impact on the effectiveness of contracting, especially when things go wrong. Addressing these organizational concerns, automation systems are increasingly providing analytics and collaboration functionalities that result in enhanced risk management capability versus being driven by terms and condition compliance.\r
\r
Key characteristics to effective collaboration and contract intelligence are many. First, the quality and ease of the user interface is critical to uptake and effective use of the system. Flexibility of systems and the ability to work with both suppliers and customers with the same data are also significant considerations. Finally, state of the art environments require robust analytics, including the ability to integrate actionable, relevant data into the risk reduction equation, for both users and management. \r
\r
In this webinar we will explore these characteristics and the extent to which an improved and holistic view of contract information can contribute to proactive compliance management and effective contract risk reduction.\r
