- Contract Lifecycle Management
Contracts are the operational architecture of your business — they define rights, obligations, and commercial relationships. Viswanathan & Associates’ Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) practice ensures that every contract you enter into is not just enforceable, but also aligned with your strategic goals, risk profile, and operational realities.
We manage the entire lifecycle from initial review and drafting to compliance monitoring and renewals with a focus on clarity, enforceability, and dispute prevention. Our team provides legal precision with process efficiency, enabling clients to scale operations without compromising on contractual safeguards. We help businesses streamline processes, minimise disputes, and ensure enforceability through systematic documentation and proactive management.
We institutionalize robust CLM frameworks that streamline operations, ensure compliance, and safeguard business continuity—turning contracts from static paperwork into dynamic assets that encourage growth.Partnering with businesses across sectors, from consumer goods to technology and services, we unlock value by enhancing contractual governance, enforcing obligations, and enabling proactive risk management throughout the contract lifecycle.
