Contract Insights

Contracts are critical for a vast array of business processes. As such, legal teams and contract administrators must be prepared for contract lifecycle management. However, it is important to note that not everyone is positioned to engage in legally binding contracts for themselves or their organizations. As such, one of the crucial elements of a contract is the contractual capacity of parties involved.

In this post, we’ll provide 3 criteria that dictate an individual’s contractual capacity to enter into an agreement.

Collecting, analyzing, and tracking contract management data with manual and disparate processes throughout the contract lifecycle can prove challenging. You can waste time and energy without readily accessible contract management reports for the following.

• Contract Financials
• Contract Terms
• Workflows
• Budgets
• Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)
• Vendors
• Contract Compliance Data
• & Other Essential Contract Data

Fortunately, leading contract management software can provide you with contract reports for optimizing contract performance management oversight.

• wasted time.
• widened gaps between legal, procurement, and contract administrators within academic systems. 

In order to avoid these issues, we need to first address the question. What exactly is education contract management - and how can it be improved with contract management software?
