Huntsman Accelerates Global Contract Lifecycle by 40% with Apttus

SAN MATEO, Calif., April 30, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Apttus, the Middle Office leader, announced that Huntsman Corporation has advanced its legal operations with Apttus' Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM) solution. Huntsman now runs its contracting operations off of a single data model, enabling a consistent view of contracts across sales, legal, finance, and other functional groups. As a result, the global manufacturer and marketer of differentiated and specialty chemicals has achieved greater visibility and control over its contract approvals process, resulting in improved compliance with regulations like SEC and SOX regulations and faster access to accurate agreement data.

"The Apttus platform has allowed us to centralize and manage our contracts, both on the sales and the procurement side," said Patrick Verraes, Deputy General Counsel at Huntsman. "Apttus CLM has also proven to be a reliable means of analyzing data and driving contract efficiency while giving us more insight into the value and risk profile of our contracts."

By standardizing its global contracting process and introducing instant approvals via mobile using Apttus CLM, Huntsman has seen 40% faster contract cycle time, going from weeks or days to a matter of hours or minutes. In addition, standardized and automated reporting contributes to 92% faster reporting and removes the risk of manual error.

"Our customers often say that their top challenges are extended time to execute and lack of visibility," Apttus SVP of Product, Eric Carrasquilla said. "To address these challenges, we are putting the power of contract discovery and lifecycle management into our customers' hands. By doing so, they can support their business operations at the pace required while continuing to manage risk and compliance as regulatory requirements change."
