Lawson Contract Management helps streamline contract creation and maintenance through reusable templates and terms and conditions while providing easy, yet secure and auditable, access to all contract related documents in one location for the entire organization.

Because it works with Lawson Procurement, Lawson Contract Management can also track price and compliance information, based on your purchasing history, to give you the power of information to negotiate effectively, standardize purchases and save money.

Part of the Lawson Supply Chain Management Suite, Contract Management is designed to alleviate your biggest headaches stemming from the creation, management, and monitoring of contracts. This application attacks the root causes by helping deliver:

• Secure, centralized access to — and auditability of — all procurement and non-procurement contracts in your organization
• Clear visibility to price and compliance information, enabling your materials team to negotiate more effectively, standardize purchasing practices and ultimately save the organization money
• Greater control by legal and/or contract administration over contract terms, clauses, and conditions
• Reusable contract templates and language, simplifying and accelerating the contract creation process
• Integration with other Lawson Supply Chain Management applications, supporting an automated “source-to-settle” procurement process

Lawson Contract Management comes with several standard reports to bring key people quickly up to speed on critical operational information, such as:

• Contract compliance
• Contract rebate activity
• Item cost variance
• Off-contract purchasing
• Projected rebate distributions
• Rebates by due date
