The Strategic Challenge: Manual Contract Chaos Hindering Global Operations
Primary Pain Points:
Undefined Approval Chaos: No standardized workflow processes causing contracts to stagnate in email systems for days, creating significant operational bottlenecks and decision-making delays
Physical Signature Dependencies: Legacy paper-based signature processes requiring printing, mailing, and manual tracking creating massive administrative overhead and document accessibility challenges
Fragmented Document Storage: Critical contracts scattered across multiple locations without centralized repository making retrieval time-intensive and hindering operational efficiency
Invisible Contract Tracking: No unified system for monitoring renewal dates, expiration timelines, and contractual obligations leading to missed deadlines and unfavorable terms
Cross-Departmental Friction: Communication gaps between legal and business teams causing endless information exchanges and wasting valuable strategic capacity
Business Impact:
$47.3 million annual estimated cost of manual process inefficiencies and operational delays across global operations
Manufacturing delays affecting OEM delivery commitments and customer satisfaction metrics
Risk exposure from poor contract visibility and missed renewal deadlines creating competitive disadvantages
Administrative overhead consuming 72% of legal team capacity preventing strategic business focus
