Contracts Management: Mitigating Risk and Maximizing Value Across the Lifecycle
Overview:
Effective contracts management is essential to ensuring that organizational commitments are aligned with business goals, risk is minimized, and value is maximized throughout the contract lifecycle. In today’s environment—marked by regulatory scrutiny, complex supplier networks, and performance accountability—contracts must go beyond legal formality to become active tools of governance, compliance, and operational clarity.
This conference explores modern approaches to contract drafting, negotiation, execution, monitoring, and closeout. It highlights digital contract lifecycle management (CLM) platforms, performance and compliance tracking, risk allocation, and dispute resolution strategies. Sessions will also address public sector contracting, FIDIC-based contracts, and evolving clauses related to ESG, cybersecurity, and data privacy.
Participants will gain practical tools to manage contracts more efficiently, reduce legal and financial exposure, and build stronger partnerships with internal and external stakeholders.
