Case Study: Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals achieves rapid, compliant contract generation in SharePoint with ActiveDocs

ActiveDocs document automation in SharePoint provides controlled and compliant document generation for Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceutical

Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals, a global pharmaceutical company with over 35,000 employees, faced the challenge of producing large volumes of standard contract documents quickly while meeting strict regulatory and internal quality requirements. Before automation, Bayer’s legal team drafted contracts manually. To address this, Bayer implemented ActiveDocs—deploying ActiveDocs Opus and the ActiveDocs SharePoint Module integrated with Nintex workflows—to automate template management and document generation within their enterprise SharePoint platform.

ActiveDocs delivered a wizard-driven, business-rule-based solution that generates compliant single documents and document sets from Microsoft Word templates in SharePoint, manages template versioning, and routes items through Nintex-controlled review and approval. The ActiveDocs implementation enabled rapid deployment, eliminated much of the manual drafting work, allowed business users to produce standard contracts from SharePoint, and streamlined review and approval—reducing administrative effort and accelerating contract production across Bayer HealthCare Pharmaceuticals.
