Case Studies & White Papers Best Practices for Authoring a Contract

through an Enterprise Contract Management SystemWhen choosing a contract management system, it is important for the company evaluating different solution offerings to consider software that provides flexibility in authoring a contract. This flexibility allows an organization to reduce the time and cost of creating contracts and increase throughput of contracts with external parties.

Enterprise Contract Lifecycle Management for Healthcare SystemsLed the client in training all hospitals on how to author contracts through a best-of-breed ECLM solution. Rollout included approximately 300 users and 3000 contracts.

Poor Visibility into Contractual Obligations and Liabilities Resulted in…

$10MM of IP royalty payments not collected because contract was not enteredinto any system – i.e., zero visibility

• An internal audit found the contract which was on the desk of an employee who left the organization 6 months prior

$20MM of penalties paid due to late payment (6 months) of contractual obligations

• 10-20% of company annual profit at risk due to underestimatingcontractual obligations

• A/P understated• Underestimated budgets for future liabilities

$4MM overpayment for a service procured without being aware of an existing preferred supplier contract with lower prices

Page 18: IBM Enterprise Contract Management ROI

Polling Question Answers

18

1. For most organizations, a new contract is created no more than every 7 minutes

YES. Most organizations create between 20,000 - 40,000 contracts annually which amounts to a new contract being created every 3 – 6 minutes.

2. The cost of implementing contract improvements per contract over 5 years is less than the cost of a brand new iPhone

YES. The cost for implementing and support an ECLM solution over 5 years is roughly $5.6M, divided by 40,000 contracts = $140 per contract (vs. $199 for the new iPhone 5S).

Enterprise Contract Management Implementation

Customer Profile:Leading provider of information technology solutions

Challenges/Situation Locating executed contracts and determining expiration dates for existing contracts Lack of a contract request process for over 300 sales individuals to easily enter contract

metadata and terms to generate a contract. Inability to track whether/not bid assurance has properly reviewed contract and if

appropriate approvals have been received on SOW before being presented to Customer. Contract execution (receiving Customer signature and internal counter-signed signatures)

taking too long.

Delivered Solution Integration between Onit (contract request system which also holds External Party

information) and Emptoris. Ability to draft, negotiate, review, approve, and execute Statement of Works and Change

Orders through Emptoris. Internal signatory clauses can be inserted into contract (only by individuals with the correct

security) in lieu of e-signature functionality.

Business Benefits/Results Better success in end-user compliance with internal policy guidelines Retirement of SOW Central (legacy SharePoint directory holding contracts) Reduced drafting, review, approval, and execution time for contracts Ability to present contract via email directly to external party rather than having to send

contract offline (through Outlook) Template governance in place allowing appropriate individuals from Program Sales and

Legal to make legal/business language updates.
