1. Contract Lifecycle Management In the Disruptive Age

2. Bridge the gap between core business systems and information.
Contracts
So far we’ve been talking about how M-Files manages your documents and files. But we also understand that not all of your HR information is going to be document centric.
And if we want to give you a full 360 degree view of your project data we need to bridge your data driven content with your documents and files.
This is one of the key unique features of M-Files. We are a true enterprise information repository.
Non-Document data objects are managed the same way as documents giving you a consistent look and feel across all your data.
It doesn’t matter if that data originates in M-Files or is managed in other enterprise systems like your ERP or CRM. M-Files can make use of the data wherever it lives so you're only ever managing the data and people in one place.
The benefit here is that not only can we now give you a 360 degree view of all of your content but it allows us to give additional context to your HR-releated documents and information, making them easier to find and manage.

We can also make use of this information we're collecting to secure our documents.
So In addition to user and group permissions we are going to make use of the metadata to drive what we call automatic permissions.
Based on your configuration, the metadata decides how the content is secured.
And if the metadata changes the permissions can automatically change with it. Making the management of permissions both easy and dynamic.
Your users won’t have to think about how to secure the contract. The information we are tagging it with takes care of that automatically.
We’ll walk through an example of this during the demo.

So, in addition to our desktop and web clients we have mobile clients for iOS, (iphone and ipad), Android and Windows Phones.
This allows your mobile users to view, edit or create content and participate in workflows directly from their phone or tablet.
Your users out in the field will enjoy the same access as a user working from home or a user in the office.
