The biggest barrier to fixing contract management? There’s too much on your plate.

Legal teams and contract owners are constantly firefighting – chasing agreements, tracking deadlines, and answering urgent questions. The idea of introducing a new system, even one that promises to make things easier, feels like yet another task in an already overflowing workload.

A broken system keeps you too busy to fix it

Fixing contract management never feels like the priority. If you're busy now, chances are you’ll still be busy next month, next quarter, and next year. There’s never a free moment to step back and fix the system, so contract admin keeps piling up, draining time without solving the root problem.

Many of our customers have been here. Spreadsheets and folders weren’t ideal, but they were familiar. Fixing them felt like too much effort. Others turned to shiny new contract management software, only to find that setup was more work than expected.

What was supposed to make things easier became a second job. Over time, teams come to assume that switching to a new system will be just as painful, so they stick with what they have.

That’s exactly why we built Nomio. You don’t need to rethink contract management — we do it for you.

Nomio turns “we don’t have time”  into “it’s already done”

As a fully managed service, we don’t just give you a contract repository — we take responsibility for it. From setup to ongoing maintenance, we handle everything.

All you have to do is send us your contracts. Our in-house experts handle everything else:

• Building your database schema: We define and structure the key data points you need to capture, so everything is organised from day one.
• Capturing and validating data: Nomio extracts the key data points from your contracts, and our team reviews them for accuracy and flags inconsistencies.
• Organising agreements: We name agreements according to a standardised convention, link amendments, and ensure related contracts are correctly structured.
• Labelling agreements: We apply relevant labels based on your business context, ensuring contracts are categorised in a way that makes sense for you.
• Managing access and permissions: We set up user roles and access rights based on your instructions.
• Ensuring your repository stays up to date: No more worrying about outdated records; we maintain the integrity of your data over time.

Onboarding takes less than two hours of your time, usually in the form of a few conversations where we discuss your data points and preferred labels. From there, we take care of the rest.

The initial time spent setting up Nomio is instantly repaid

The time spent setting up Nomio isn't just minimal – it’s an investment that pays back immediately. Unlike other systems that demand hours of manual data entry and configuration, Nomio is designed to eliminate contract admin from day one.

Our customers often save more time in the first few days of using Nomio than they spent onboarding. Think about the time you and your team spend:

• Searching for contract details every time someone asks about a renewal date, payment term, or clause.
• Tracking down the latest version of an agreement, making sure it's final, checking for missing amendments, or confirming what’s actually signed.
• Manually monitoring key dates to avoid missed renewals, expirations, or obligations.

All of this adds up to hours of unnecessary effort every week. With Nomio, everything is structured and searchable, meaning you get your answers instantly instead of digging through files and folders.

We manage your repository, so that you don’t have to — forever

Setting up a contract repository is one thing. Keeping it accurate, organised and usable over time is another challenge entirely.

Most contract management tools require you to manually update records, fix errors, and clean up outdated data. Without constant attention, the system becomes unreliable – and when that happens, people stop using it.

Nomio prevents this from happening by handling ongoing maintenance for you. We don’t just capture data once and leave you to manage it. We continuously:

• Validate every new contract entry to prevent errors from creeping in.
• Track upcoming deadlines and proactively send reminders.
• Resolve ambiguities by flagging anything unclear in your contracts and providing a straightforward way to clarify it.
• Handle admin work such as implementing new label conventions, adding new data points, and making other requested changes.

Most systems need constant upkeep to stay useful. Nomio takes the ongoing burden of maintenance off your shoulders.

Doing it yourself means all of the effort and none of the efficiency

Some businesses assume that keeping contract management in-house gives them more control or saves money. But when time is already scarce, managing a contract repository manually only adds to the workload, whilst becoming yet another ongoing responsibility with high overheads.

If you handle contract management in-house, you’ll need to:

• Hire or assign staff to manage contracts full-time, adding to headcount or pulling people away from higher-value work.
• Train employees to ensure consistency and accuracy.
• Manually track, organise and update contract data to prevent outdated information from causing mistakes or compliance risks.
• Mitigate risks of errors that can lead to costly oversights.
• Plan for continuity when the person in charge of contracts leaves or goes on holiday.

With Nomio, you’re not relying on an internal bottleneck or taking on extra headcount. Instead, you have a dedicated expert team that ensures your contract repository is always in top shape, without requiring your time or effort.

Your contracts aren’t too complex; we live and breathe contract chaos

Some businesses worry that their contracts are too complex to trust with an external provider — explaining every detail will take too much time, and they’ll have to constantly have to step in to clarify things.

That’s not the case with Nomio. From several-thousand-page construction agreements to elaborate multi-schedule MSAs, we handle complex contracts every single day without needing customer input. Because we work with such a wide range of agreements, we already understand exactly how to manage them.

We clarify uncertainty without wasting your time

When something isn’t clear, we never make assumptions. Our Ambiguity process ensures uncertainties are addressed without unnecessary back-and-forth. We flag potential issues, present them in a way that’s easy to understand, and manage the resolution process, so you spend minimal time reviewing and maximum time getting value.

Nomio learns how your contracts work

The more we work with your contracts, the better our understanding gets. We build every learning into our internal blueprint, meaning Nomio adapts quickly to your contracts and preferences. Even for the most complex agreements, we refine how we process and categorise your contracts over time, so you never have to re-explain the same thing twice.

Complex contracts aren’t the exception for us – they’re the norm.

Nomio evolves with you over time

Many businesses hesitate to implement a contract repository because they aren’t sure what their exact requirements are.  Whether it’s deciding which data points to track, how to categorise agreements, or setting access rules, it’s difficult to predict what will be needed long-term. This uncertainty often leads to inaction.

With Nomio, you don’t need all the answers before getting started. We make sure your repository continues to meet your needs, even as they change. We also don’t just wait for you to tell us what you need — our team works proactively to identify opportunities to add value, like suggesting additional data points we think could be useful.

You don’t need to define every detail up front

Nomio builds your contract database from the ground up, so you have a clear, structured system that’s easy to build on over time.

• No overwhelming setup process: We handle things step by step, so you’re never stuck making big decisions upfront.
• No need for perfect planning: We adapt as your business requirements evolve.
• A repository that grows with you:  Whether you expand your contract portfolio, refine your data point needs, or introduce new agreement types, we make it happen.

You don’t have to build the perfect system from day one – Nomio allows you to refine and scale your repository effortlessly, while we handle the work behind the scenes.

The contract management service that saves your time

Most contract repositories fail because they still require too much effort to maintain. If a system needs constant upkeep, it’s just another task on your plate.

Nomio flips that model on its head. We don’t just store your contracts – we manage them. From setup to ongoing maintenance, we keep your repository structured, accurate, and effortless to use, without taking up your time.

Nomio vs others: what gets done for you?

If you’re too busy to think about contract management, that’s exactly why you need Nomio. Your current contract management system is what’s stealing your time — Nomio wins it back.
