Hello Procurement gurus. At our place, legal team is part of the Requisition workflow where they read the contract provided by the supplier. Once they have okayed the document, they approve the request. This is causing some issues at our end. I want to check with other folks, where does your legal team sits in the workflow? I am an IT guy and never seems legal being part of the req process. Thanks 🙏

Would normally include legal in the CLM and not during a PR/PO. Huge roadblock. What do you do if it’s a recurring spend off same contract? Do they approve each one?

Agreed. Legal should never be apart of the req/po approvals. As your organization grows it will become unsustainable and you don’t want to pay your lawyers for that.

Legal can take a view on contracts, yes, but even though I would hesitate. Get them to create template t&c clauses you can use when signing up.

Shoot me a DM if you want to know more
