Description

Drive the economic value of terms and conditions through relationships, commitments, priorities, and expectations.Every business, regardless of type, kind, or size, enters into contracts on a regular basis. Those contracts may be from vendors rendering services and products to the business or they may be contracts in which the business, itself, provides services and products to its own customers. In this presentation, we focus on better managing the contract process and thirdparty relationship to avoid disputes, speed negotiation, and decrease time to market. In particular, we will discuss a variety of situations arising during the preliminary precontract process, the negotiation process, and postcontract activities.
