The Nordic Region’s Leading Certification in Contract Management
Why Contract Management?
Organisations across both the private and public sectors face growing pressure to meet financial targets and improve operational efficiency. At the same time, the services they deliver and procure are becoming ever more complex.
As our economy has shifted from manufacturing to services, the contracts that support it have grown in both volume and complexity.
This development places increasing demands on organisations’ ability to manage contracts effectively—and especially on the professionals responsible for doing so. This is where Contract and Commercial Management (CCM) plays a critical role.
Effective Contract Management Impacts the Bottom Line
Research conducted by World Commerce & Contracting identified a nearly 10% difference in bottom-line performance between organisations applying good contract management practices and those applying poor practices.
Key findings include:
Between 50–75% of private sector input and output is now governed by contracts
The number of contracts has increased by an estimated 50% over the past 25 years
30–35% of organisational contracts fail to deliver their expected value
The financial impact corresponds to approximately 9.2% of annual revenue attributable to the contract budget
