Individual contracts either stand alone or are created in the context of an existing outline agreement and assigned to the outline agreement. A comprehensive classification is available for entering individual contracts. .

According to the Gartner Group, 60% of all supplier contracts automatically renew without the buyer's knowledge, mainly because the buyer fails to terminate the contract. Even more astonishing is the fact that 50% of the contracts are renewed several times without the buyer's knowledge (Forbes, Gardner group).

A laissez-faire attitude towards contract management can have serious financial consequences, as automatic contract renewals often involve more expensive terms and late terminations can lead to litigation and damage. Contracts are not documents to "sign and file", they are rather living documents that are subject to real events / changes.
