Our customers

Did you know that installing a mobile phone tower costs more than $100,000? Neither did we, but our consultants relished the chance to learn more about the telecoms industry when Four Business Solutions started working with TIGO.

“We loved to see our staff so much more productive, after just half an hour’s training!”

Andrew Hodgson, CFO

Power up – ride the energy storm with contract management software for energy and utilities

Social housing is unique in that it is the only type of housing where rents are linked to income. So, generally speaking, social homes are the most affordable homes across the country, usually rented at about 50% of the average local market rent. Houses and flats for public or social housing use are built by or for local authorities. Approximately 55% of the country’s social housing stock is owned by local authorities – of which 15% is managed on a day-to-day basis by arms-length management organisations rather than the authority – and 45% by housing associations offering social homes, shared ownership, supported and specialist housing.

Why the future of legal operations depends on digital transformation

As legal operations processes and legal technology standards evolve, it is important that organisations adapt accordingly. As contract complexity and contract volume grow, the fact that manual and outdated methods of contract management will no longer suffice is quickly elucidated. As such, organisations working with contracts must embrace digital transformation to increase revenue, decrease contract lifecycle management bottlenecks, and succeed in this ever-changing technological landscape. Read on to learn about the nature of digital transformation – and how digital transformation with contract management software can help organisations to seamlessly navigate the future of legal operations.

Contract management software for media and entertainment

Managing various types of media and entertainment contracts from varying locations with multiple departments and roles can be an arduous process – especially when relying on disparate methods such as emails, wet signatures, shared network drives and cloud-based spreadsheets. Dealing with and tracking a high volume of contracts – from intellectual property contracts to talent agreements, among many others – can be tremendously challenging without a leading contract management software that centralises your contract lifecycle management processes. Read on to learn how a centralised CLM software suite can help you achieve pre-award to post-award entertainment and media contract management success.
