Corporate Contractual Obligations – What Do We Own?

Procurement and internal business stakeholders continually execute contracts with their supply base, generating new commercial obligations and associated risks. These contractual documents often end up in a large physical or digital repository, which fails to capture the necessary metadata, essentially functioning as little more than a document warehouse. In other words, having a document, and knowing what future obligations the respective contract commits your company to, are fundamentally very different issues.

Raindrop understands this challenge and solves it with technology to make your life easier and provide risk transparency. With a few simple clicks, perform a bulk upload of your documents, which are rapidly extracted and digitized via Raindrop’s AI technology. The valuable contractual metadata is pulled out, facilitating the ability to make informed decisions on a go-forward basis, reduce your business risk, and ensure contractual compliance.

So how does Raindrop do it? As Procurement practitioners ourselves, we built Raindrop right out of the box with Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities, which ‘sniff’ for vital contractual provisions in your documents. This valuable metadata enables visibility into your contractual commitments in a rapidly available manner.
