CLM (Contract Lifecycle Management)
Definition
CLM (Contract Lifecycle Management) refers to the set of processes and tools covering the complete lifecycle of a contract: drafting, negotiation, internal approval, electronic signing, storage and renewal. A CLM solution centralises contracts in a single repository with deadline alerts, approval workflows and contractual exposure reports. Certyneo covers the signing phase and can be integrated into a third-party CLM via REST API: Certyneo receives the finalised document, manages the signing circuit, returns the signed PDF with a timestamped audit trail, and the CLM archives the definitive version.
