Driven by purpose, obsessed with improvement. If you are looking to transform your contracting processes for the better, and elevate your legal team from business support to strategic powerhouse, partnering with the right provider is a big decision. It’s not just offloading work; imagine reducing contract turnaround times significantly, not by cutting corners, but by streamlining and automating processes. That’s an achievable reality with continuous improvement and the right supplier ecosystem. Beyond just speeding up processes, there's a wealth of opportunities to refine, innovate, and elevate every aspect of your contracting. From automating templates to streamlining workflows, the potential for improvement is vast and varied. Here’s how to tackle it. We’re sharing all we know about driving your legal operations to new heights in our Guide to Buying Managed Legal Services. https://lnkd.in/dGUV4ZYB

Lawyer perfectionism is a major blocker to making things better. If we can get over things needing to be complete and instead focus on just getting something going, then continuous improvement becomes possible. Just get going!

Why using GenAI to draft your contracts is a risky bet. 🎲 GenAI can struggle with creating new agreements—use it cautiously. Instead, stick to reliable document automation for speed and consistency. But, there are some clever ways to integrate GenAI: 🔹 Drafting novel clauses 🔹 Creating first drafts for service descriptions where there is too much variability to use document automation 🔹 Creating new templates and refining existing templates as part of making them short, clear, reasonable, and relevant 🔹 Accelerating template automation GenAI has its place, it’s a tool, not a substitute. Here's a clip from our webinar series where Alex Hamilton explains why you should use it wisely. Unlock the power of automation to eliminate inefficiencies and boost performance in our next 'Robots' webinar. We'll show you how to implement tech-driven processes that cut down on manual work, enhance speed, and ensure reliability. https://lnkd.in/dWsBicJG

Contracting doesn't have to be slow, confusing, or painful. Here’s a breath of fresh air - our approach to contracting is designed to cut through the complexities and streamline your high-volume contracting. Reasonable Positions: We ditch the 'win-at-all-costs' approach, aiming for balanced, fair negotiations that foster long-term relationships. Automated Processes: Forget manual drudgery. We leverage technology to streamline your processes, focusing first on making them lean, then automating for impact. Data-Driven: No more guesswork. We use solid data to guide decisions, ensuring you're always on the right track. Incremental Improvements: We favour small, continuous steps for lasting change, rather than overwhelming transformations that can fall by the wayside. Collaborative Approach: We believe in working together, both within your team and with external parties, to create win-win scenarios. Accelerated Results: Our approach speeds up closing deals without cutting short your chance to explore the options and think through the consequences - it actually frees up time to focus on the important things. Long-Term Relationships: We build lasting relationships, not just transactions. This approach brings more value to your business. If you’d like to master the fundamentals by getting your team aligned, our 'Repeatable' workshop will give you a foundation that drives consistency and efficiency across your legal processes.

I think we're going to need a bigger awards cabinet... After a great summer of wins for the work we do and how we approach it, we've now been shortlisted in a few categories at The British Legal Awards. Firstly, we're in the running for Alternative Legal Service Provider of the Year for our work to streamline how we are able to deliver world class support to in-house legal teams. 🏆🏆🏆 Our partnership with HSBC’s legal team and Konexo has also been recognised in the Outstanding Collaboration category. We’re not just excited about that one; we’re proud to be recognised for how we work together to deliver creative approaches that help HSBC's team to focus on strategic priorities and make an impact for the business. As always, the biggest thanks go to our Delivery team for always striving to make a positive impact, as well as congrats to the other incredible teams who made it to the finals. Your hard work and fresh ideas are rocking the legal ops world (and keep us on our toes)!

How we took our contract turnaround from two days to half a day. In 2020, we turned an already impressive two-day turnaround into half a day. Step by step, we broke down what seemed crazy—and hit 75% within nine months. Bold goals are really helpful. They stop the team from looking for tweaks and instead force everyone to step back and rethink the whole way of doing things. One of our crazy goals is to win a Shingo Prize (colloquially known as the nobel prize for manufacturing). A LOT of things have changed at Radiant as we work towards it.

AI in contracting: Game-changer or just hype? Alex Hamilton’s bet with Casey Flaherty is simple: less than a 5% impact from AI on contracting over the next five years. Bold? Maybe. What are your thoughts? Let us know in the comments below. To hear more of Alex's AI and other tech thoughts, book your seat for our next webinar on 'Robots' where he discusses AI and how to approach technology with eyes wide open, as well as how to really leverage data.
