Introduction

As organisations increasingly seek greater efficiency, accuracy, and risk control in commercial operations, Artificial Intelligence is emerging as a transformative force in contract management. Traditional contracting processes often involve significant manual effort, lengthy review cycles, and inconsistent risk assessment practices that can impact commercial outcomes and organisational performance.
