Case Study: Kinamed Incorporated achieves centralized, HIPAA-compliant patent and contract deadline tracking with ContractWorks

Kinamed Incorporated - Customer Case Study

Kinamed, founded in 1987, is a medical device manufacturer that designs and produces implantables and instruments for orthopedics and neurosurgery. With five product lines, multiple global partners, and a large IP and patent portfolio requiring HIPAA-compliant handling, Kinamed needed a central, secure way to track critical contract dates, set alerts, protect data with NDAs, and generate role-specific reports to avoid fines or missed opportunities.

Kinamed implemented ContractWorks for an easy-to-use, secure contract repository with automated email reminders, custom document tags, and reporting tools. The team now spends less time searching for contracts, reliably manages patent expirations and milestone payments (domestically and with partners in Europe and Japan), and protects the business from costly penalties or potential patent loss while continuing to manage patents, NDAs, licensing agreements, and other deadline-driven documents.
