Magle Chemoswed is a contract development and manufacturing organization based in Sweden. It serves companies in the pharmaceutical and medical device industry on a contract basis to provide services from product development to manufacturing. It has a strong track record of successfully bringing their own and customer products to market.
Megi Medzmariashvilli, Legal Counsel at Magle Chemoswed, is responsible for multiple different types of contracts Including quality and clinical trial agreements. Originally all contracts were stored on an internal server and extraction of client lists and metadata was impossible. This made it hard to maintain oversight of the agreements, especially when it came to contract governance.
Collaboration was via email and there was a lack of workflow and contract automation. Filing of contracts were manual, processes were time consuming and there was a lack of control over the agreements; if not addressed this would ultimately lead to exposure of liability.
Megi knew that Magle Chemoswed needed to take action.
Processes relating to contract management needed to be improved, and this need became more urgent after the business started publicly trading. It was imperative they could demonstrate the control they had over their agreements.
The business had previously used DocuSign for eSignature and spoke to them about their CLM solution. Magle were convinced DocuSignCLM was the right product, but they wanted the support of an expert implementation partner and that is when SYKE were introduced.
Megi says “Atul was our main point of contact at SYKE for implementation. He made sure he fully understood our requirements and objectives so the project would be a true success story. Atul diligently ensured that all updates were communicated clearly, he tested and demonstrated each update which enabled us to successfully build the workflow. He worked tirelessly to ensure the project was a triumph and it was.”
“DocuSignCLM has now been implemented and has saved us so much time. We have all the metadata tagged so we can easily extract information from the agreements. We can now update contracts without having to create new versions each time we send a contract out. We have reports available to advise when contracts are due for expiry, and we can say with confidence that we have control over the contracts process.”
Megi adds “Using SKYE to implement this digitalisation has meant we have been able to explain our requirements and the CLM has been built by legal experts to answer our needs, without us having to invest too much time. Next time we need to improve our legal tech, we will be contacting SKYE. If any business is looking for an expert CLM implementation partner I would have no reservations recommending SYKE.”
