Case Study: Fortune 500 Conglomerate Company achieves 9x productivity and ~90% cost savings with EdgeVerve Nia Contracts Analysis

9x improvement in productivity with automated contracts analysis and risk review for a Fortune 500 conglomerate

Fortune 500 Conglomerate Company, a Tokyo‑headquartered group with $86B revenue and 879 subsidiaries, faced a heavily manual contracts review process that consumed about 25% of procurement staff time. Reviews took 2–3 hours per contract, risk scoring was subjective and error‑prone, and new hires had a steep learning curve, creating a procurement bottleneck that limited annual contract throughput and delayed projects. EdgeVerve was engaged to address these challenges using Nia Contracts Analysis (Infosys Nia).

EdgeVerve implemented Nia Contracts Analysis to automate clause tagging, contract summaries, risk scoring and a collaborative review dashboard, training models from existing contracts and SME feedback. The solution standardized risk scoring, created a shared knowledge base, and cut review time from ~150 minutes to under 15 minutes, delivering a 9x productivity gain and approximately 90% labor cost savings per review (from $220 to under $25), with projected annual processing capacity rising from 260,000 to 2,340,000 contracts.
