San Mateo, Calif. (May 28, 2020) - Conga®, the leader in digital transformation for commercial operations, today announced new tools and resources from Forrester Consulting to help organizations more effectively create and manage contracts to successfully navigate the risks, obligations and opportunities facing their businesses.
The typical business creates, manages and executes more than 1,100 contracts every year -- 78% of which are customized. To understand more about how businesses manage the volume and velocity of their contracts, Conga commissioned Forrester Consulting to evaluate organizations’ contract lifecycle management (CLM) approaches, challenges and future plans.
Key findings of the Forrester Consulting study, “Reduce Risk and Improve Your Contract Velocity with a CLM Technology Solution,” include:
“Contracts are the glue that binds the business world together – they define who does what, when they do it and how much they do it for,” said Ben Allen, SVP of Corporate Development, Conga. “And yet even in this digital world, we believe the results of the Forrester Consulting study verifies that too many businesses still rely on outdated ad hoc, manual or homegrown systems to manage their organizations’ agreements. Conga is dedicated to helping our clients digitally transform their contracts -- and the processes that surround them -- to achieve commercial excellence.”
The second resource available today is the Conga CLM Maturity Assessment. The maturity of an organization’s CLM strategy explains how effectively their contracts are processed, managed and leveraged. To help organizations measure the maturity of their CLM strategies, Conga introduced the Conga CLM Maturity Assessment, which provides an interactive, online quiz that delivers results in less than two minutes.

Methodology
In December 2019 Forrester conducted an online survey of more than 200 respondents in the US, EMEA, and Asia Pacific to evaluate current approaches to contract lifecycle management. Survey participants included decision makers in finance/accounting, operations, IT, procurement, sales, and legal at businesses with sell-side, buy-side, and/ or source-to-contract contracts. All respondents issued and/or managed contracts as part of their business’ day-to-day operations and all respondents manage, create, or execute contracts.
