Enterprise Contract Management: A C-Suite Round Table

Mon, 01 Jul 2019 04:20:01 -0700

Several teams within every large organization handle contracts. But they approach contract creation and management from different perspectives and with different priorities.

The legal team seeks consistency of contract terms, formats, clauses, and exceptions. Finance is concerned with buy-side and sellside cost savings, working to exploit clause-based revenue opportunities while avoiding unnecessary penalties and renewals.
