Companies keep their data distributed among different databases, procedures, and documents. As a result, many companies face hindrances such as data silos, process fragmentation, and unwieldy manual approaches, thus stunting their growth. In other words, this is why one would need Revenue Lifecycle Management (RLM).
Conga RLM is rooted in one customer-focused data model, which provides a centralized framework for all revenue transactions, contracts, workflows, and other related data. This unified data framework ensures seamless integration of systems and continuity of critical information as customers and opportunities progress through different stages – from initial proposal to renewal.
Some critical components of the Conga RLM platform include:
- Document Generation: Create customized, compliant contracts, proposals, invoices, and other documents directly from structured data without manual intervention.
- Configure, Price, Quote (CPQ): Deliver personalized, accurate quotes faster through automated configuration, pricing, and proposal tools.
- Contract Lifecycle Management (CLM): Digitize contract drafting, approval, execution, and renewal processes for increased visibility and control.
- Salesforce Optimization: Connect CRM data to other systems for end-to-end process automation within Salesforce.
- Analytics & Insights: Leverage AI-powered tools to gain real-time insights into deal pipelines, revenue forecasting, contracting trends, and more.
