What’s the one thing any job or specialty requires? Tools. Every doctor wears a stethoscope. Carpenters need power drills. You wouldn’t send a cable technician to an installation without fiber-optic lines. I know my workday is over if I leave for the office without my computer. So why send your  business’ buyers to contract negotiations without the tools they need to expertly close the deal?

Increase agility during vendor negotiation

When buyers and vendors arrive at negotiations with two different agendas, extra time and resources are necessary to finalize the contracts. The buyer has to consult with numerous experts and gather more information to analyze and determine whether the current proposal is good for business. By the time all the pertinent data is compiled and negotiations reconvene, the players have lost sight of what they were trying to accomplish in the first place.

Instant insight and fingertip access to terms and conditions go a long way in simplifying the process. The Contract2Go mobile app from GiCom does just that. With real-time access on a tablet, buyers can:

  1. Concentrate fully on negotiations instead of gathering information
  2. Accelerate the negotiation process by quickly evaluating vendor offers
  3. Sign and print contracts in real time
  4. Store terms and conditions immediately on SAP systems
  5. Improve profit margins
  6. Strengthen the company’s overall bargaining position
