The challenge

Dentalcorp, Canada's largest network of dental practices with 550+ clinics, manages contracts ranging from practice-level supplier and dentist agreements to enterprise partnerships. Its prior CLM proved difficult to implement and limited the team to a document repository, unable to build needed workflows, configure most metadata, or generate basic reports.

The solution

After evaluating 13 CLM solutions, Dentalcorp selected Ironclad, manually uploading every agreement for accuracy and launching with its most critical agreements first before expanding to amendments and terminations.

We have received glowing feedback from the users outside of the legal team. Our operations team is much more organized because they know at every step of the way where the contracts are.
