Contract Management Software - never miss a deadline again

edoc contract is an efficient solution for your contract management needs. It is deeply integrated with d.velop documents and can also be used seamlessly alongside other ECM systems, offering comprehensive task and deadline management to prevent unexpected contract due dates.

A central dashboard gives you full visibility into all tasks, deadlines, and follow-ups. The contract overview provides a clear snapshot of your entire contract portfolio, allowing you to identify critical dates—such as notice periods, renewals, or warranty expirations—early on. Automated email reminders ensure that no important deadlines are missed. In the reminder overview, you can see all pending and completed tasks and adjust them individually as needed.

Thanks to integration with your existing document archive, contract documents can be organized using flexible filing structures — from simple contract folders to complex files with multiple documents and attachments. All contract-related documents, information, and activities are consolidated in one central location. Included templates can be customized to meet your specific requirements.

A role-based permission concept controls who can view or edit specific content. New contract documents are automatically assigned to the appropriate processes, including related tasks. This creates clear, reliable workflows without additional manual effort.

With edoc contract, contract management becomes transparent, secure, and efficient—while remaining intuitive and user-friendly.

Digital contract management includes the following basic functions:

  • Simple management of contracts and deadlines
  • A centralized overview of all contracts
  • Secure storage in long-term stable formats
  • Automated reminder functions providing an overview on relevant reminder dates
  • Permission control for reminders with read or write permission
  • Simple and intuitive user experience
  • Simple contract control
  • Management of user access rights
  • AI-powered contract filing and storage
  • Flexible configuration and customization

The perfect addition to d.velop documents

edoc contract makes contract management within d.velop documents more structured and transparent. Terms, deadlines, and other key contract information are structured logically and easy to find. Authorized employees have secure, location-independent access to all relevant data, as well as associated documents and correspondence.

The solution integrates seamlessly into your familiar d.velop environment. All standard features — such as access via d.velop pilot or secure document sharing — remain fully available. The tight integration between both systems ensures that users experience them as a single, cohesive solution, enabling efficient, consistent, and location-independent contract management.

Still receiving contracts on paper? Paper-based contracts can also be digitized with minimal effort. Using barcode-based contract cover sheets in combination with a corresponding scanning workflow, even original paper documents can be efficiently converted into digital form. The cover sheets also support structured filing of the physical originals, creating a seamless end-to-end process that incorporates both digital and paper documents.

Features that simplify contract management

Standardized or customized remindersthe choice is yours

edoc contract provides automated deadline management that can be flexibly tailored to your needs. Reminders can be sent via email to individual users, entire teams, or a combination of both. Each notification includes a direct link to the contract, allowing immediate access to the relevant document.

Multiple reminders can be created for each contract file, including related documents and attachments. These reminders can be contract-specific — such as for notice periods or warranty dates — or used for general tasks and follow-ups. With reminder templates, you can even model complete review and approval workflows.

You can organize your contracts to fit your specific needs. Whether you prefer a simple structure with only a few document types or complex file structures for individual contracts and master agreements, edoc contract supports clear and consistent organization of all contract-related information, documents, and activities. Contracts can be managed using standard or custom-defined master data. Review and approval processes are supported by the built-in capabilities of your content repository.
