Create contracts
Modern contract management starts wherever the optimization potential is the greatest: for efficient collaborations between all those involved in the process and for avoiding inconsistencies in media format through intelligent digital solutions. This helps reduce processing times and make the entire workflow more predictable and reliable.
You can create new contracts in an instant by selecting from existing templates, passages of text and parameters, or by uploading new contract templates. This ensures consistency when creating contracts. Automated workflows enable efficient and error-free testing and releasing, and the contract period checks allow you to keep a constant eye on everything.
Working together
Whether it’s via Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive or Microsoft Office 365, the new feature in the contract management software makes it possible to work directly on a contract with the entire team on an equal footing, and everything is handled digitally. Do you want to negotiate contractual terms with a new partner? No problem! Simply assign them permissions, upload the contract to the cloud and you’re off, regardless of where your contract partner is.
For collaboration as a team, you’ll need access to collaboration tools in addition to the contract management software. You can find more information on the websites for Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive and Microsoft 365.
By the way, the collaboration feature is now available for all our solutions for document-intensive processes. You can also find out more from our blog, “Collaborative Work & Document Management”.
Sign contracts digitally
Everything is finished, the contract is complete, it just needs to be signed. Collective work on the contract has made the process more transparent and efficient for all involved. When it comes to the signature, though, many reach for a printer and a pen again, thus causing an unnecessary inconsistency in media format. But you can sign the contract in a legal and accountable way directly from the contract management system using an electronic signature.
The market leader in digital signatures, DocuSign, makes it possible for you to create a conclusive digital signature. The signature request goes out by email. The digitally signed document is then uploaded separately and contains all the changes made in a change history. DocuSign is already integrated into the contract management system EASY Contract.
Archive contracts
A new feature in the contract management software is the connection to an archiving system. With a click, you can put your finished contracts in revision-proof, automated storage. Afterwards, you’ll be able to retrieve them at any time using full-text search, including a detailed log of all the stages of work carried out on the contract.
Legal certainty is the basis for contract management. Select a provider supporting legal standards such as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), the generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and the GDPdU (principles of data access and auditability of digital documents).
