Contract automation software and statements of work

Most contract problems are not legal problems. They are the result of a document that was specific in the wrong places: long on background, vague on exclusions, silent on what happens when something changes.

These posts cover the four sections that decide whether you get paid without an argument, and the honest line between what a ten-person firm needs from contract management and what the enterprise CLM category is built and priced for. The short version of the second one: under about twenty live agreements, discipline beats software.

DocuDeal drafts these from a sentence with all the sections present, including the exclusions and acceptance wording, and keeps the signed version on the client's page so the renewal does not pass unnoticed.
