Malbek Selected by Fender as its Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) Solution to Harmonize Global Contracting
Malbek commissioned benchmark study from the World Commerce & Contracting to deliver deep industry insights about AI’s evolving role in Contract Lifecycle Management
Princeton, N.J. -- April 6, 2022 PRNewswire -- Malbek, today's most cutting-edge, AI-fueled Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) platform, today announced the availability of its commissioned study from the World Commerce & Contracting (WorldCC) about the barriers and benefits of AI-enabled contracting across organizations. The first annual report found more than a quarter (26%) of an organization’s workforce is in some way involved in contract management, and contract-related data in the typical large organization sits in 24 different systems. The combination of multiple touchpoints and systems demonstrates a clear risk for lost time and productivity, while increasing potential for errors.
Report findings show the need for AI to help mitigate risk in CLM while also indicating that there is a sense of enthusiasm around the use of technology in contract management. Given the pressures of today’s modern workforce working in disparate locations and many companies adopting remote workforce practices, companies turn to AI in CLM because of a growing need for speed and efficiency in virtual, collaborative environments. However, even with efficiency to be gained, there is still a lack of understanding surrounding what can potentially be achieved using AI technology to benefit CLM.
“This research underscores what the WorldCC knows to be true; when CLM and AI technology are embedded throughout organizations, there is so much more than efficiency to be gained,” said Tim Cummins, President at the World Commerce & Contracting Association. “We are confident that these findings will support stakeholders in building a cohesive vision to fuel these important initiatives.”
The survey uncovered six key trends that organizations around the world feel are important to the state of contract lifecycle management and the use of AI in today’s modern workforce. They are:
“There is an ongoing battle between needing AI and trusting AI in today’s contracting processes, but the real power of artificial intelligence does not come from replacing human expertise, rather it comes from the potential to augment human intelligence through insights and capabilities that may not even be seen or imagined,” said Hemanth Puttaswamy, CEO of Malbek. “With this vision in mind, we are proud to partner with World Commerce and Contracting to uncover the barriers that exist within organizations around their use of AI and the key trends that influence contract lifecycle management as a whole.”
