With EY’s support in creating your legal operations platform, you can fast-track your digital transformation and benefit from:

  • Increased certainty that risks and obligations are monitored, renewal dates adhered to and KPIs met
  • Better management of regulatory or supply chain-driven, large-scale contract changes (e.g., Interbank Offered Rate (IBOR) and General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR))
  • Increased internal focus on stakeholder relationships rather than contract administration
  • Identification of revenue leakage and new opportunities


Arranging a PoC for a legal operations platform could be the best return on investment your legal department can make.



EY offers a Proof of Concept (PoC) to help you discover how a legal operations platform would benefit your organization. The PoC identifies and records your needs and functional fits, and supports buy-in for the system from legal stakeholders by incorporating them in the decision-making process. Investing early in a PoC will reduce the effort and cost required for full implementation further down the line. The PoC focuses on success factors – lawyers, operations, future ways of working and technology – to demonstrate the benefits of an innovative legal operations platform.
