Contract Management

b-pack manages full contract life-cycle and compliance
 |
According to Aberdeen, nearly 50% of all companies reported poor visibility into supplier contracts. This lack of visibility makes it imposable to track, enforce, and comply with existing agreements. 80% of enterprises are using manual or only partially automated processes to carry out contract management. Billions of dollars in, pre negotiated, savings are literally being overlooked.
b-pack contract management allows for the easy tracking of:
- Discounts and rebates
- Service performance
- Milestones
- Quality
- Delivery
