Contract Review and Approval
Accelerate contract management workflows
Simplify and automate the contract review and approval process
Contracts with clients, vendors, and other stakeholders are key to business. But legacy contract review and approval systems at many organizations limit productivity and often have insufficient security. Not to mention they make it hard for teams to find, share, and retain contracts over time in order to scale their efforts. Using Box, contract collaborators can work on secure, centralized contract management software in order to accelerate contract lifecycles, protect content security, and meet compliance standards. Because you shouldn't have to worry about where a contract is or if it’s secure — you should already be looking ahead to the next one.
