Contracts
Signed PDFs live in legal's mailbox, a 'contracts' Drive, and the counterpart's DocuSign. Renewal dates are in a calendar the last counsel owned, so auto-renewals fire without a review.
Hypervault keeps contract number, parties, term dates, and the signed file in an encrypted EU vault, with permissions for legal, finance, and the business owner of that agreement.
Why store Contracts in a digital vault
Renewal dates sit in one person's calendar
When counsel leaves, notice windows are missed. Renewal date on the vault item is visible to legal and finance together.
The signed copy is not the latest amendment
Side letters live in a different thread. Attachments plus contract number keep the operative set together.
Parties are spelled three different ways
Search fails and duplicates appear. Structured parties and type fields make the register usable.
Terms are a 40-page PDF nobody can filter
Start, end, and type should be fields. The PDF stays attached; the term is queryable.
