Frequently asked questions

  • What are contract negotiations?

    Contract negotiations are the process of discussing, reviewing, and finalizing agreement terms between two or more parties. The goal is to create a contract that satisfies everyone involved while addressing concerns such as:

    • Pricing 
    • Responsibilities
    • Timelines 
    • Compliance

    A successful negotiation results in a win-win scenario for all parties with clear, enforceable agreement.

  • What is the execution of a contract?

    The execution of a contract is the formal process of signing the agreement, which makes it legally binding. Steps include:

    • Signing: All involved parties begin with signing the contract—in person, electronically, or through other authorized methods.
    • Contract delivery: The signed contract is then delivered (physically or digitally) to all parties.
    • Implementation: The contract's terms come into effect once executed where parties are required to fulfill their contract obligations. 
    • Recordkeeping: The executed contract is securely stored for future reference, compliance, and resolution of potential disputes.
       
  • What are the top use cases for contract negotiation automation?

    Contract negotiation automation takes you from slow negotiations and endless back-and-forth to faster deal wrap-ups and compliant, error-free contracts. Automation transforms the way you work by:

    • Speeding up negotiation cycles: Free up your team’s time by automating repetitive tasks like approvals, clause selections, and document redlines. Close deals in record time and focus on what matters most.
    • Staying compliant with every contract: Meet your industry’s legal requirements easily with pre-approved templates and clause libraries.
    • Reducing risks in third-party contracts: Protect your business with AI tools flagging risky clauses and difficult-to-locate issues.
    • Making teamwork seamless: Break down silos with real-time collaboration tools. Keep your legal, sales, and procurement teams aligned and moving forward together.
    • Tracking progress: Stay in control with dashboards that monitor timelines, milestones, and document versions. Nothing gets lost, and everyone stays informed.
    • Standardizing your contracts: Bring order to contract chaos. Create consistent agreements with rules-based workflows while still allowing flexibility for unique client needs.
       
  • Can we customize Conga CLM if we have complex contract workflows?
