Case Study: Bertelsmann achieves enterprise-wide contract intelligence and a single source of truth with Icertis

Bertelsmann Deploys Icertis Platform for Future-Proof Contract Management Solution

Bertelsmann, a global media, services and education company with €17 billion in revenue, tasked its Group IT with improving the intelligence of sourcing contracts. The team needed a best‑of‑breed Contract Lifecycle Management solution that would provide a single source of truth from negotiation to expiry, deploy quickly rather than as part of a larger suite, and scale across the enterprise.

After an RFx, Bertelsmann chose Icertis Contract Intelligence for its end‑to‑end lifecycle capabilities, cloud architecture and single‑instance scalability. Rapid deployment delivered a unified view of sourcing contracts, up‑to‑date templates and e‑signing, automatic metadata capture and more efficient use of legal and tax experts, while Icertis’ domain expertise positions the company to extend contract intelligence across the organization.
