BEAT THE AGREEMENT TRAP

According to Deloitte, nearly $2 trillion can be lost in global economic value each year due to poor agreement management practices and systems - more details here.

Problems with and blind spots around agreement management can cost time, money and opportunity.

  • On average, companies spend an extra 18% of their time on agreements, resulting in over 55 billion hours wasted globally per year.
  • An agreement can undergo 15+ handoffs internally before any counterparty negotiation.
  • 66% reported inefficient agreement workflows as reducing customer satisfaction.

With Docusign, users can achieve system-wide and organisation-wide document access and visibility regardless of where those documents reside.

  • Filter, sort and compare documents based on envelope metadata:
  • Import new and existing envelope metadata from multiple organisations so it's faster and easier to filter agreements.
  • Compare documents side by side and detect variant envelope attributes.
  • Automatically use optical character recognition (OCR) on image files and document scans.
  • Use full-text and envelope metadata search options to generate comprehensive results.
  • Leverage Total Search capabilities with employing, grouping, stem/no stem, wildcard and proximity and Boolean search, indexing and de-duplication.
  • Reduce the need to manually manage and store agreements across different systems.

ENHANCING IAM WITH DOCUSIGN

The latest IAM end-to-end platform as a service connects more processes and can deliver enhanced control, reducing cost across agreement lifecycles. Hidden costs of slow or inefficient document management include increased customer churn, decreased prospect conversion, unnecessary legal/compliance risk, poorly prepared negotiations, and other issues.

For example, an IAM agreement can be created by automatically pulling customer data from Salesforce, then negotiated in real time using a single shared 'live' document.

When data or identities need to be verified, those steps can be built into the workflow and automated so they happen faster and easier. Expiration dates can be notified and apps customised for different business areas.

AI is key to enhanced benefits as Docusign IAM expands into major markets later this year, following its US May launch.
