Case Study: Sonnedix achieves clearer legal spend control with Brightflag

Sonnedix consolidates law firms from 60 to under 30 with Brightflag

Sonnedix, a global solar Independent Power Producer, faced a significant challenge in controlling its legal spend as the company prepared for major expansion. Its billing process was fragmented and lacked clarity, making it impossible to accurately understand or reduce costs. The legal team needed a solution that would provide full visibility into spending without creating administrative burdens for its internal team or its large panel of outside law firms. They turned to Brightflag for its legal spend management solution.

By implementing Brightflag, Sonnedix centralized its legal billing process, which allowed every law firm to submit invoices through a single portal. The platform provided the strong analytics needed to reassert billing guidelines, consolidate the law firm panel from over 60 to under 30 providers, and negotiate fixed-fee arrangements. The results included a dramatic reduction in time spent on invoice review, the elimination of unapproved payments, and the delivery of predictable legal costs. Brightflag gave the team the data-driven insights required to make strategic, cost-saving decisions.
