Contract review for
procurement
Supplier agreements, vendor contracts, framework agreements — procurement teams manage hundreds of contracts. Vern triages every one so nothing slips through.
High volume, high risk — and no time to review every one
Procurement teams manage high volumes of supplier and vendor contracts. Each one carries risk: uncapped liability, aggressive payment terms, auto-renewal traps, weak termination provisions.
You can't send every supplier agreement to legal, but you can't afford to sign blind either. The contracts keep coming, and the risks keep compounding.

Common risks Vern catches in procurement contracts
Auto-renewal with insufficient notice periods
Contracts that auto-renew with 30-day or shorter notice windows are easy to miss. Vern flags every auto-renewal clause and highlights the notice period so you can diarise or renegotiate before it's too late.
Payment terms exceeding your policy
Suppliers pushing for 60, 90, or 120-day payment terms that breach your internal policy. Vern checks every payment clause against your playbook thresholds and flags deviations immediately.
Uncapped liability on supplier side
When a supplier's liability is uncapped or disproportionate to the contract value, you carry the risk. Vern identifies missing or inadequate liability caps and escalates them for review.
Weak termination provisions / exit clauses
Contracts with no termination for convenience, excessive notice periods, or punitive exit fees can lock you into underperforming suppliers. Vern catches weak exit provisions before you sign.
