C-Lutions CLM Matrix Awarded Designed for "Documentum Certification" by EMC
CLM Matrix by C-Lutions is first Microsoft Office-based solution to achieve "Designed for Documentum" status
DALLAS, Texas - March 19, 2007 – C-Lutions, LLC., the leader in contract lifecycle management solutions on the Microsoft Office platform, today announced that its CLM Matrix software has been formally certified "Designed for Documentum" by EMC, the leader in enterprise content management hardware and software.
EMC, a Microsoft Gold Certified Partner, provides enterprise-class content management infrastructure for Microsoft application environments including Microsoft Office SharePoint Server 2007 and Microsoft Office desktop products such as Microsoft Word and Excel. EMC partnered with C-Lutions, a Microsoft Certified Partner as part of its strategy to offer customers information management and storage solutions optimized for their Microsoft environments. C-Lutions CLM Matrix software, the the leading CLM solution on the Microsoft Office platform, satisfies a strategic business problem that cuts across all industry segments in both the public and private sector.
CLM Matrix was the first Microsoft SharePoint Server-based solution certified as "Designed for Documentum". EMC's Documentum and Microsoft's SharePoint Server are recognized as the world's leading collaboration technologies. Leveraging SharePoint Portal Server for collaborative process workflow and Documentum for the enterprise repository within CLM Matrix combines best-of-breed technology to deliver a seemless contract lifecycle.
“Achieving DfD status further establishes C-Lutions as the technology and feature/functionality leader in the fast-growing contract lifecycle management segment, says C-Lutions Vice President of Solution Architecture, David Montgomery. Being able to leverage your existing Microsoft Office and Documentum technology investments is a real upside.
Contract Lifecycle Management is an emerging market fueled by the growing awareness of the strategic role of contracts and trade agreements on both the buy and sell side. CLM is the process of systematically and efficiently managing contract initiation, creation, negotiation, and execution through to expiration. Today, most organizations employ a blend of manual, paper-laden, and informal processes that rely on Microsoft Word as attachments in Outlook e-mail. Strategic and valuable information lies trapped in paper documents, exposing the organization to inflated costs, missed revenue opportunities and avoidable compliance risk.
The C-Lutions software solution, called CLM Matrix, is a contract process automation application that is built exclusively on the Microsoft technology platform including MS Office 2007 with Smart Document technologies, SharePoint Portal Server 2007, Windows Server and SQL Server 2005. Key elements include: 1) SQL-based digital historical contract summaries of information pulled directly from the contract Word document for quick research; 2) dynamic, rules-based and policy-driven contract modeling for requests; 3) automated SmartDoc technology contract creation and formatting based upon contract request; 4) automated collaborative workflow for approvals, notifications and reminders; 5) a role-based contract monitoring and tracking portal; 6) and advanced SQL reporting capabilities for contract trend, performance, compliance and governance analysis. Other solution components include a host of system configuration wizards that allow the system to be rapidly adapted to fit the customer’s desired contracting process while leveraging existing Office tools like Word and Excel. The result is quick, out of the box deployment that is readily embraced by the user community with little required training.
