Case Study: Banijay Finland accelerates compliant contract creation with M-Files Ment (M-Files)

How M-Files Ment allowed Banijay’s Finnish production companies to create contracts faster and with greater compliance

Banijay Finland, EndemolShine Finland and Jarowskij Finland — part of the global Banijay Group — produce many of Finland’s most watched TV programmes and manage large numbers of project‑specific employment and subcontracting agreements. Their legal team struggled with multiple versions of the same contracts, time‑consuming searches to find the latest wording, and the risk of missing updates after legislative changes, which slowed down contracting and increased compliance risk.

They implemented M‑Files Ment as a user‑friendly document automation solution, consolidating agreement precedents into single automated templates that are always up to date. After a roughly three‑month rollout starting with employment agreements, lawyers now create and maintain templates themselves (over 30 agreements automated), speeding up contracting, ensuring legislative compliance and improving the experience for producers and partners.
