Gathering required signatures for contracts can be a challenging task, especially when working with multiple signatories in various locations.  Considering that signatures finalize contracts and propel their execution, this highly anticipated step can be delayed with manual wet signatures that can waste time and paper-based resources - including postage and office supplies.  Moreover, specific signatures can require notarization, which can further delay the signing process.  Read on to learn how contract management software can make online contract signing quick and easy.

Managing various types of media and entertainment contracts from varying locations with multiple departments and roles can be an arduous process - especially when relying on disparate methods such as emails, wet signatures, shared network drives, and cloud-based spreadsheets.  Dealing with and tracking a high volume of contracts – from intellectual property contracts to talent agreements, among many others - can be tremendously challenging without a leading contract management software that centralizes your contract lifecycle management processes.  Read on to learn how a centralized CLM software suite can help you achieve pre-award to post-award entertainment and media contract management success.

Contract obligations are – to put it simply – the contractual commitments that parties involved in a contract have agreed to entirely satisfy.  Successful contract obligation management requires organizations to ensure that they have met the obligations agreed upon in a contract in a timely manner.  Unfortunately, manual contract management methods can make the contract lifecycle – which includes contract obligations – confusing, disorganized, decentralized, and almost impossible to handle properly.  As such, key dates, milestones, payments, deliverables, and more can be missed.  Thus, organizations should avoid the pitfalls of contract management by ditching manual and outdated contract administration processes in favor of robust, user-friendly contract management software.
