Corporate legal departments face a true challenge
It is all about balancing increased demands with limited resources. This challenge is exacerbated by the need for digital transformation, where the temptation might be to rely solely on tech tools, without a comprehensive understanding of tasks and value.
Before adopting tech tools or fixing the existing tech processes, corporate legal departments need to first understand their tasks and the value they bring. A detailed analysis can improve quality, speed up delivery, and reduce costs. In-house lawyers need to leverage innovations from law firms and other providers. This holistic view ensures that work is redistributed to maximize value.
Corporate Legal Depts: do you agree the following are the main pain points to tackle?
- Increased Workload with Limited Resources: Legal departments are expected to deliver more value while operating with constrained resources.
- Temptation to Over-Rely on Technology: There is a risk of prioritizing technology adoption without a clear understanding of how it integrates with existing workflows/ stakeholders and contributes to overall value.
- Need for a Holistic Approach: Detailed analysis and strategic planning are essential for effective transformation, rather than ad-hoc tech implementation. Involving and integrating all stakeholders, internal as well as external, is key to building efficient and reliable processes.
- Alignment and Integration Challenges: aligning new technologies with the company’s overall IT infrastructure, efficiently interconnecting all stakeholders and building the right information flow.
