Contract Management
Your company is constantly considering, negotiating and signing contracts.
In the world of Risk Management, there are two kinds of contracts:
- insurance policies, and
- non-insurance agreements
The insurance policy is purchased, amended during the year as events happen – changes in direction of the business, new ventures, acquisitions, etc. Believe it or not insurance policies are constantly in play, and then there is the annual renewal. In cases where there is no risk management presence, these policies may not be reviewed at all! Insurance language negotiation is a key part of the risk management function.
Non-insurance policies are also constantly encountered in daily business operations. These almost all have risk and insurance implications, and language that directly addresses risk and insurance. We work with the company’s attorneys, and in fact they seek us out, to iron out and perfect the language in that area.
In contract management in general, a risk management rule is “never be passive.”
