How Good Can Contract Management Save You From Breaches and Litigation

Time and again, we have always known contracts are very significant and indispensable for business. Contracts are even the starting line from where everything moves forward. If these contracts are not taken care of adequately to the fundamental basis of their existence there are serious consequences that it might lead to and when this happens it becomes very difficult to untangle you from the unfavorable outcomes you get to face or have to overcome.

Beginning with we will see how this breach comes into your business. The contract, when created for small and medium business, have the following features:

• Comparatively fewer contracts in numbers than huge corporates.
• There may be an in-house team just enough to handle their average number of contracts.
• A limited number of Attorneys.

The only disadvantage they could face is:

• Only if the in-house team is not competitive enough.
• Do not have a contract management software or a tool running yet since they are not looking into huge volumes yet.
• It could be a genuine mistake of overseeing the terms that had led to the breach like renewal or termination dates or ambiguous language misunderstandings.

However, if you ask a good contract management provider they can tell you professionally that the above 3 scenarios are red code warning signs already.

Now consider huge corporates and legal firms and associates handling a lot many clients. Let's consider what they will have to handle on day to day basis:

• A lot many more contracts under different clients and different categories of law practice, everything happening on the same day.
• They would have employed already a significant number of attorneys and paralegals to get through their volumes of work.
• They will be competitive enough already with the high portfolios of clients and huge business they will be capable of rightly handling.

So what disadvantages can these huge corporates and legal firms can face?

• Definitely volumes of contracts that are more than the already considerable in-house staff can handle.
• Pressed for time and resources with lots happening all round the clock.
• With huge numbers of contract handlings running there is always a risk of missing a few here and there when due time and resources or not uniformly invested.

Nevertheless, again a list for red-flagged scenarios.

When these shortcomings in both the scenarios become more prominent and gets larger every day there is no doubt you will be pushed to the brink of breaches already, if you don’t pull back and take the required alternate actions to manage the contracts for the better and every due attention given to it for monitoring, reviewing and checking round the year.
