contracts-LITE is the entry level solution that provides visibility of agreements and pro-active management of contract deliverables with on-line alerts and e-mail notifications of upcoming events. It comprises:

Executive Dashboard
Executives and managers do not need to be users of the system, in fact they should be dissuaded from being users as they do not need to input the detail of the contract management data. However, metaSC’s objective is to provide information and knowledge, not data.
We therefore provide a Executive Dashboard that provides graphical representation on the data in the system, e.g. chart of all contracts and when they will expire.

MANAGEMENT module provides more advanced management capabilities, addressing all aspects of contract management including: variations, payments, issues, performance, special conditions and documents and contract creation.

performance KPI management
contract financial management
contract variations / time extensions
meetings, issues
contract milestones and milestone alerts
document creation
project management level
special conditions of contract

PRELIMINARIES module adds the ability to manage the pre-award stages of contracting including EOI, RFP, tenders and quotes.
It helps tracking and managing contract development, public notices, stage by stage submissions, evaluations, and risk prior to contract award.

contracts-PRO is the full enterprise solution that includes LITE, MGMT and PRELIM and as well as including formal business process workflow to promote corporate consistency of procedures and document templates, enforcing compliance, and providing accountability and auditability of all contract management tasks. It comprises:

all Contracts-LITE , Preliminary and Management module functions

ADVANCED EVALUATION module provides a user-defined approach to the creation, completion, evaluation and ranking of supplier submissions.
The module generates a full evaluation questionnaire directly into MS Excel that can be included with RFP documents, then automatically scored following receipt of supplier submissions.

e-TENDERING provides a secure environment to manage the complete tender-box cycle, electronically streamlining the tendering process by eliminating costly paper based and manual data entry processes.
Fully integrated with Contracts-PRO, e-Tendering enables the advertising of public and private RFPs, supplier notifications, secure tender closing events, time stamping of submissions, publishing of upcoming tenders events, and full audit history
