Contract Lifecycle Management
Streamline the Contract Approval Process Agencywide
Automate the management of any contract type, from intake to execution.
Challenge
Agencies negotiate relatively simple, low-risk contracts for goods and services, as well as multi-stage, high-risk ones. These agreements often entail unique complex approval chains that extend across multiple business functions. Legacy systems and manual processing are both error-prone and excessively time-consuming. SimpliGov provides a centralized system that facilitates digital contract management in order to maximize financial and operational performance, while minimizing risk.
