Contract Renewal & Expiry Tracking

Q: Does this replace the account manager's involvement in renewals?

No, the account manager still reviews outreach and signs off on final terms; the automation handles tracking and drafting.

Q: Can it work alongside our existing CRM and email tools?

Yes, it connects with existing contract records, email, and e-signature tools rather than replacing them.

Q: What happens to contracts already in the system?

Existing contract records and renewal dates are read directly, so no historical data needs to be re-entered.

Q: How are non-responsive clients handled?

The automation tracks reply status and sends a follow-up automatically if a client has not responded within the expected window.

Flagging monitoring contract renewals early enough to review pricing.

About This Automation

Contract renewal tracking involves manually checking expiry dates against a shared list and prioritizing accounts nearing their renewal window. Doing this by hand across spreadsheets and calendars increases the risk of missed deadlines and lost revenue.

An automated version scans contract records daily, flags upcoming renewals, and drafts outreach automatically. This shortens renewal turnaround and reduces the chance of contracts lapsing unnoticed.

Key features:

Scans contract records each morning to flag renewals approaching their expiry window.

Prioritizes flagged contracts by account value automatically.

Drafts personalized renewal notices and tracks whether clients have responded.

Sends automatic follow-up reminders when a client has not replied.

Packages approved terms into a signature request and stages the billing update.

Updates contract status and renewal dates without manual entry.
