Worldwide organizations, from industrial divisions to material processing units use Contract Insight as their preferred contract management software. Learn from this real-world example how one of the largest worldwide industrial companies chose Contract Insight as their preferred contract management system and utilized the user-friendly software’s configurability to set up the system to meet their needs.
A global product and service provider for steelmakers, rail companies, and energy producers was facing the challenge of how to provide controlled document access across divisions for the hundreds of contracts and related documents within the organization. Identifying specific documents was an issue within the organization and they needed a place to host documents with employee-based controlled access.
It’s important for organizations to have a known location for contracts and related documents so when an employee needs to view or edit a document they can easily identify the location of the document(s) and the access necessary to effectively do their job.
The Solution: A Contract Repository With Controlled User Access
Ian, a Contract Insight Implementor at CobbleStone, helped the organization’s legal team during an optimization session by showing them how to easily configure their system’s contract field types so all company contracts and related documents are easily searchable, with document version control, all from within the system. Now, every time an employee needs access to a contract, they can easily search, view, edit, and share the document without having to ask anyone where the document is stored. This industrial organization can now focus on workday tasks with ease, knowing they can easily identify document locations when needed.
