Legal SmartDocuments is an easy-to-use document creation tool that can be used across your entire organisation, using the content that you manage. Empower the business to self-serve and streamline approval workflows, while you stay in control. The result: improved service, consistency and quality.
Improve compliance by standardising contract language, clauses and design in the templates that you approve for use. With structured processes and up-to-date templates, you can minimize risk and avoid economic losses.
Once you have created a template, users simply answer dialog-driven questionnaires and Legal SmartDocuments automatically fills in the empty fields of your templates. Let other departments draft documents independently and reduce the risk of manual errors.
Increase efficiency by automating routine tasks and free up time for more strategic, value-adding tasks. By removing bottlenecks and empowering the business to self-serve, you strengthen the position of the legal department as a competent business partner within the company.
Reap the benefits of document automation, without the IT-hassel. Legal SmartDocuments is user-friendly and based on Microsoft Word, therefore requires no additional programming knowledge or expensive training. Users can continue using the same tools they use today. A win for your entire organization.
The legal department endeavors to minimize risks for the company it serves. However, in organisations where contracts and legal documents are created manually, mistakes are bound to happen, leaving the company exposed to unmitigated risks.
Stay in control of all legal documents and the subsequent approval process, provide your business with more service with automation tools, and become the driver of digital innovation in your business.
A typical business scenario: A business department needs to create a new contract so they copy a version they used before, change a few details and send it off to the Legal Department for review. Not knowing which template was used, whether it was the current version or which business idea is being closely tracked, you either need to check the draft contract in detail, or have it checked by external specialists, costing you time and money. More often than not, you return the contract with the comment that the template used was outdated or needed a lot of changes to remain compliant.
The solution: With Legal SmartDocuments, you can turn this process around completely, increasing efficiency and compliance. The department selects a template for the type of contract they need to create. The template includes your approved standard language and clauses, and the department simply "fills in the blanks" using a simple questionnaire. Any deviations can be discussed and, if necessary, you can adjust the Word-based contract template or the underlying business logic for the future. What's more, updates to templates and clauses are automatically shared with users, so new laws, policies or regulations can be incorporated immediately, reducing your risk.
