Use Case Summary
Automation of the full contract authoring to negotiation to signature process means a more consistent and reliable process of executing contracts. This would also include certificate of insurance/compliance. It would automate the collection of information, in real time, and even enable auto-contracting in authorized instances. Cost and speed are enhanced.
