Supply chains represent a key area of risk for many businesses and are also an area receiving increased legislative scrutiny, particularly in the context of environmental, social, and governance issues.

For most service recipients, business process outsourcing (BPO) negotiation and contracting is a need which arises every few years, it is not business-as-usual. Service recipients are often faced with high value and complex agreements which need to be negotiated, and even with best-in-class external support, this can be challenging for busy internal teams. Our clients increasingly want combined specialist commercial, operational and legal support, because each of these elements are intertwined and all form part of the same negotiations and trade-offs.

According to a recent Deloitte report (The future of legal work? The use of Generative AI by legal departments, 2024), 79% of CEOs expect Generative AI to transform their organisations in the next three years. While the competitive advantage is enticing, adoption of this powerful, differentiating technology demands attention to risks that could imperil an organisation’s brand, reputation, stakeholder trust, or critically, its compliance with legal and regulatory obligations. Legal leaders also need to understand how they can make use of Generative AI to transform the legal function. What should your organisation be thinking about now? We’ll discuss:

Almost 10 years ago, Deloitte Legal developed their own document automation tool, “Legau”. Legau has saved us hundreds of hours per year in drafting SPA's, articles of association and other corporate documentation.
Recently, we've decommissioned “Legau” and upgraded to ClauseBase, a legal drafting toolbox for document creation, review, and negotiation, which has allowed us to save even more time.
In this webinar, we will discuss our journey towards creating better contracts faster, by leveraging top notch contract drafting technology.
During the webinar we will share insights and best practices, providing you with an actionable list of takeaways for embedding legal drafting technology in your own Legal function. We will focus on five key areas: people, process, governance, content, and technology:

Integrating due diligence into your company’s governance and policy framework is key to identify and address challenges causing supply chain disruption and leading to negative reputational impact. Various legislative initiatives within the European Green Deal are forcing companies to take measures to prevent or mitigate any potential impact they identify in the field of environment and human rights, as well as end or minimise any real impact.
Preventive or mitigating actions towards suppliers will require a contractual basis.
In this webinar, we will discuss the impact on contracting with suppliers and how contract management technology, like Knowliah’s technology, can assist you in keeping track of and making your supplier contracts future ready.

In today's dynamic business landscape, the ramifications of poor contract management are becoming clearer than ever. In conversations with clients, we often notice that time and budget constraints can be significant roadblocks to achieving Contract Lyfecycle Management (CLM) excellence. That’s why we’ve developed a smarter, more efficient path: blueprinting.
During this webinar, we’ll be in conversations with the first partner we’ve launched the blueprinting methodology for – DocuSign – discussing the ins and outs of blueprinting.
Join us as we share real-world insights, success stories, and practical strategies that demonstrate how this approach can revolutionize your CLM journey. We will explore how clients can benefit from using the methodology to enhance and simplify their initial CLM pilot phase to get to a minimal viable product quicker, more efficiently and at a lower cost up-front.
Whether you're a local or international business looking to derive benefits from CLM quickly or a forward-thinking organization seeking streamlined transformation, this webinar is tailored to you.
Your contact information, including email, might be passed on to DocuSign for the purpose of following up on your interests.
Please join speakers from Deloitte Legal and DocuSign on Thursday 21 September to explore this topic.

Progress on the gender pay gap and broader pay equity issues has been slow across the EU. The European Commission believes the key is to drive greater pay transparency and has brought forwards a new Directive introducing initiatives including mandatory gender pay gap reporting, a ban on salary history questions to candidates and requiring the publishing of pay bands for vacancies. What can your organisation learn from the US and the UK on how to navigate changes, where similar measures have been in place for some time? Topics include:
Diversity, equity and inclusion (DE&I) - and our changing perspectives - are influencing how people work together and the way businesses operate. It is a critical aspect in employment across the world, as regulators demand more attention for the issue and employers battle through the current shortage of skilled labour. Companies and institutions have demonstrated positive intent and increased discussion and activity, but still progress seems slow. Our panellists, from across Europe and US will be looking at the question - what if, in a changing labour law environment, not everything goes as it should? We’ll discuss:
Drafting contracts may appear straightforward, but beneath the surface lies a world of intricate complexities that only seasoned lawyers truly understand. It comes as no surprise that lawyers invest significant time and energy into this process.
Finding a suitable template to work with often poses challenges. Available templates are typically restricted to commonly used contracts. However, these templates are rarely perfect and often require substantial customization, with up to 50% of the content needing adaptation to suit specific situations. The arduous task of searching for additional or alternative clauses can be both time-consuming and inefficient.
Inevitably, crafting an initial draft can consume several hours, not to mention the subsequent struggle with layout formatting.
Join us for an exclusive webinar where we will equip you with a wealth of invaluable tips and techniques to permanently eliminate these inefficiencies:
This transformative webinar is tailored for legal professionals determined to elevate their contract drafting process to new heights.

The EU Whistleblowing Directive has recently been implemented in most of the European countries. While the actual procedures may be well known in more complex and international business environments, the Directive implements rights and obligations concerning whistleblowers, bringing a new level of attention and compliance to local employers. It requires organisations to level out the whistleblowing landscape by creating a minimum level of protection in all EU Member States by improving and further managing whistleblowing procedures. What does this mean for your organisation? Our panel of experts from UK, Italy, Germany, and France, will discuss:

Vlaamse lokale besturen spenderen per jaar gezamenlijk 1,5 miljard euro aan aankopen van leveringen en diensten via overheidsopdrachten.Audit Vlaanderen oordeelde enkele jaren geleden dat lokale overheden onvoldoende zicht hebben op hun lopende overheidsopdrachten en de inhoud ervan. Dit leidt tot verhoogde risico’s:
Tijdens dit webinar bespreken we de waarde van actief contractbeheer na gunning van overheidsopdrachten en andere contracten. Het is immers op dat ogenblik dat echt waarde kan worden gecreëerd, of verloren. Door actief contractbeheer kan de waarde van contracten ten volle worden gerealiseerd en kunnen contracten worden ingezet als een strategisch actief van het lokale bestuur, en niet louter als een juridisch document.

Waarom deelnemen?
Toen de COVID-19 pandemie uitbrak, werd de business case voor actief contractbeheer duidelijker dan ooit.
Ondernemingen moesten op heel korte termijn in kaart brengen of zij, hun klanten of hun leveranciers konden ontsnappen aan contractuele verplichtingen. Wie aan actief contractbeheer deed, had onmiddellijk inzicht in de lopende contractuele verplichtingen en kon snel de nodige stappen nemen.
Tijdens dit webinar bespreken we de waarde van actief contractbeheer na ondertekening van het contract. Het is immers op dat ogenblik dat echt waarde kan worden gecreëerd, of verloren. Door actief contractbeheer na ondertekening kan de waarde van contracten ten volle worden gerealiseerd en kunnen contracten worden ingezet als een strategisch actief van de onderneming, en niet louter als een juridisch document.

The regulatory landscape is changing at an unprecedented rate and maintaining local and cross-border compliance is a challenge. Company directors are tasked to ensure their organizations remain fully compliant with legal and statutory obligations.
Automation of the corporate compliance process may lead to better management of risk, mitigation of directors’ liability, and increased efficiency. It will also offer opportunities to proactively manage overall corporate compliance and add value to your organization at large.
