Research Contract Evaluation, Negotiation and Implementation

Acting as the main point of contact for vendors at every stage of the contract life cycle greatly reduces the amount of non-billable hours law firm members spend on vendor evaluation.  RCC insures that the evaluation process is thorough, objective and responsive to the firm’s specific needs.  RCC coordinates all elements of the contract process including trials and implementation strategy once a vendor is selected.  Finally, RCC negotiates on behalf of its clients from a position of strength based on its deep understanding of legal research vendor’s business models.

RCC breaks the contract life cycle into four distinct sections:
Current State, Desired State, Vendor Engagement and Implementation
