IAM Accelerator – Contract Relationships

Categories:Community

What it is: models how contracts depend on each other, so changes in one contract are never missed in the others.

How it works

  1. When a contract is created or added, its relationships are recorded.
  2. Relationship types: legal, vertical chain (prime / subcontract), horizontal chain, DPA, NDA, framework / call-off.
  3. Minimum chain data is recorded: dates, type of dependency, counterparty, flow-down clauses.
  4. Maestro checks that required related agreements exist, for example a DPA when personal data is involved.
  5. When one contract changes, is renewed or terminated, owners of related contracts are alerted.
  6. Navigator shows a relationship view per contract and for the portfolio.

What's prebuilt: relationship-type picklist and link fields; rules for required agreements; impact-alert workflow; relationship and portfolio views; flow-down checklist.

Customer configures: relationship types, required-agreement rules, alert recipients, flow-down clauses.

Standard: CMS™ 2.1.1 (pre-contractual documents), 4.1.3 Manage subcontracts, 4.2.2 (rights and obligations transitioning to other contracts).

Value: no missing DPAs or NDAs, and full visibility of how contracts in a chain affect each other.
