JDA Contract Management

Many companies negotiate ideal contracts with customers and suppliers and then rely on internal organizations, suppliers, distributors or contract manufacturers for execution. These groups often fail to monitor performance against pricing, rebates, penalties and other terms on a global basis. JDA Contract Management not only monitors performance, but also provides early warnings when off-contract spending occurs, when contracts are expiring or when compliance falls short.

How does it solve your business challenges?

Contracts are increasingly complex, and negotiated with a growing number of trading partners. Typically, they include discounts, special pricing and other details that may not be systematically captured. JDA Contract Management automates traditional paper contracts, enabling you to capture optimal contract pricing, standardize contract procedures across your organization and minimize risk.

What are the benefits?

  • Optimized spending due to discounts and volume buys
  • Reduced costs and labor devoted to contracts
  • Systematic vendor rebates and penalties
  • Increased contract compliance
