Market Overview

A contract lifecycle management (CLM) solution primarily caters to the needs of general counsel, responsible for ensuring that contracts protect and uphold the interests of their organizations, and C-level executives tasked with transforming deals into contracts. This solution assists businesses in creating and managing contracts that define their relationships with partners, consumers, suppliers, and workforces. The market is anticipated to grow due to the escalating complexity of business operations and increased government investments in legal technologies. Contracts play a pivotal role in business, with Gartner indicating that 60%-80% of all business-to-business deals are governed by contracts. The proliferation of contracts across various enterprises has made managing and tracking compliance increasingly complex and risky. This has led organizations to recognize the necessity of integrating advanced technologies like artificial intelligence into contract lifecycle management tools. The adoption of automated CLM solutions is poised to become indispensable for end-use organizations seeking to expand their presence. The positive impact of e-signature tools further contributes to the growth of the global Contract Lifecycle Management solution market. Additionally, the adoption of CLM for contract approval post-signature and the increasing presence of small and medium-sized software providers in the market are driving market growth. However, the current lack of skilled contract professionals is expected to pose a challenge to market growth.

Increasing government investments in legal technologies to drive market growth

Before the onset of the pandemic crisis, businesses perceived contract management solutions as a 'nice-to-have' rather than a necessity. Large-scale organizations dealt with a higher volume of contracts, while smaller businesses managed relatively smaller contracts. Legal experts dedicated significant time to the manual management and streamlining of these contracts. The inherent risks associated with manual processes, including human errors, posed substantial financial losses for businesses. Additionally, some organizations only utilized CLM software for specific aspects of their contract processes. However, the pandemic crisis prompted a shift in companies' operations, compelling legal experts to embrace automated solutions. Witnessing the increasing adoption of CLM solutions, there was a rapid surge in government and venture capital investments. As an illustration, the State of Legal Function survey highlighted a significant anticipated growth in the legal tech budget by the year 2025. Consequently, the substantial increase in government and venture capital investments by stakeholders in the Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) solution market signifies a promising trajectory for healthy growth.
