This list is just the tip of the iceberg of what you can do with CobbleStone Contract Insight 17.10.0. Let's get more specific regarding how you can leverage CobbleStone Contract Insight 17.10.0 to immerse yourself in legal operations digital transformation!
CobbleStone Contract Insight 17.10.0 offers next-level online contract negotiations collaboration both internally and with your third-party contract approval personnel!
Per your team's rules-based, configured eApproval process, the contract approver you assign can be sent an automated email to commence the collaboration and approval process on the CobbleStone® Document Collaboration Gateway. Assigned third-party contract approvers can then leverage CobbleStone's state-of-the-art online document editor interface to preview, edit, or modify documents on the E-Approval gateway for optimized contract negotiations.
Documents that approvers are editing online on the E-Approval Gateway are "checked out" so that your organization's relevant users cannot interact with the approver's version while they are editing (though system admins can check into "checked out" documents if necessary from a contract negotiation dashboard).
Once the approver is finished with their edits, they can easily approve of the document!
Once the negotiator approves the document, the file is saved as a new version for your team to approve of or edit - streamlining and centralizing the negotiation collaboration process.
Your contract management team can significantly streamline contract authoring administration with the ability to add new options to enable default documents to your pre-approved template library!
Users can introduce mission-critical documents to their mergeable template library easily within their trusted contract management software system with the "Add New Document" button.
