Salesforce Service Cloud for Vlocity Contract Lifecycle Management
Masterful Salesforce Scribe with an eye for detail
Contracts are an essential part of doing business these days. Whether it’s sales or lease agreements, contracts with employees, partners, suppliers, banks, service providers, or insurance agreements, it’s almost impossible to operate without them.
Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) is the process of systematically tracking and managing contracts between your organization and its stakeholders, including customers, suppliers, partners, and employees. This process starts with the initial proposal or request and continues until the final renewal or expiration of the contract. CLM is an important aspect of managing contractual obligations, mitigating risks, optimizing contract performance, and ensuring compliance with legal and regulatory requirements throughout the entire lifecycle of a contract. CLM assures that contracts perform as intended and comply with regulations.
To manage your contractual obligations effectively, mitigate risks, and ensure compliance, you need an efficient CLM system. Such a system should improve contract visibility and transparency, offer enhanced risk management and compliance, and enable you to negotiate and draft contracts efficiently, reduce contract-related disputes, and save costs.
Does Salesforce have a contract management system?
Salesforce Contracts: Cloud Contract Management
Yes, and yes again. Salesforce Contracts is an advanced Contract Lifecycle Management tool that allows businesses to manage their contracts efficiently and collaboratively, from authoring and negotiations through approval and execution. It is built on the world’s leading CRM solution. It operates entirely in the cloud, which means that any authorized user on any operating system can access and update contract data in real time.
Salesforce Contracts is a versatile CLM solution that caters to businesses from diverse industries. Although it does not contain the same level of industry-specific features as Salesforce Industries CLM, it is more affordable and easier to implement.
The Salesforce Contracts application is separate from the Vlocity Contract Lifecycle Management application, part of a managed package.
Salesforce Industries Vlocity CLM
On the other hand, Salesforce’s Industries CLM is a customizable transaction platform that caters to the specific needs of different industries. It works with various Salesforce industry clouds and uses the default Contract State Model for all contracts, which can be customized for different contract types. Vlocity Actions help move the contract through each state. After defining a contract type, businesses can customize the Contract State Model according to the desired workflow.
Industry CLM is an excellent cloud contract management software for businesses to manage customer support contracts more efficiently. It can be integrated with other Salesforce Industries solutions, and it offers a centralized repository for storing all contract information, including terms, entitlement levels, and service level agreements. The solution provides various features to track contract performance, automate renewals, and generate reports. It can be used in multiple industries, such as telecommunications, insurance, healthcare, energy, and media.
Salesforce’s Industries CLM solution manages the entire lifecycle of contracts in an efficient and streamlined way. It accelerates the contract cycle, minimizes errors, and improves customer experience by providing centralized information and enhancing efficiencies.
With the help of templates, standardized clauses, and document generation tools, businesses can easily create, edit, and maintain contracts. They can also define and automate approval processes to ensure that contracts are reviewed and authorized by the appropriate stakeholders. Additionally, they can create a library of reusable contract clauses and templates.
CLM cloud allows businesses to generate standardized contracts based on products or services when the order is captured. They can also populate Ts and Cs dynamically and automatically. Moreover, they can customize and edit different contract versions. Finally, the contract management cloud supports signatures, making it easier to sign and manage contracts.
These are just a few examples of how Salesforce Industries CLM can empower your business to effectively and securely manage the entire contract lifecycle, even when multiple people work on the same contracts.
In summary, while Salesforce Contracts is a general-purpose cloud-based CLM and application that can be used by businesses across industries, Salesforce Industries CLM is an industry-specific solution that provides additional customization options to meet the specific needs of different industries.
Industries CLM works on top of Salesforce Customer 360, Sales Cloud, and Service Cloud.
