Suppliers also have access to these editing and reviewing functionalities to amend contracts where required. Everything is recorded for full audit trail, with full logging and non-destructive editing.

Contract documents are securely stored on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform in a central repository, accessible anytime, anywhere, on any device. Microsoft Azure — on which GEP SMART is natively built — is an industry-leading cloud platform that safeguards the security of user data. State-of-the-art encryption, cryptography and database infrastructure ensure that your data is always secure, wherever it is hosted or accessed.

As many as you want. The GEP SMART platform imposes no limits on the number of contract documents you can create or store within it.

GEP SMART enables contract owners and other users with valid permissions to add notifications to a contract, and for specific groups of stakeholders to receive these notifications according to milestones reached in the contract. As there is no limit to the number of notifications or the number of people who can receive them, you can allow different groups to receive varying messages at different times. With this flexibility, you can keep the contract at the heart of the supplier relationship and maximize utilization, compliance and realization of the savings the contract is supposed to generate.
