BR One is a professional services provider working with a diverse client base, often engaging with larger organisations and their legal teams. Markus Johansson, Managing Director, wanted a contract management solution that would bring peace of mind, professionalism, and efficiency to their business.
Before Cloud Contracts 365, BR One’s contract process was, in Markus’s own words, “essentially Googling kind of template contracts… for the different types of contracts that we have with clients primarily.” This approach led to several persistent headaches:
Markus admitted, “It was always a bit of a concern at the back of my head… are they actually good enough or are they good? Are they solid?” The risk of using unvetted, possibly outdated templates meant he could never be sure if contracts were legally sound or up to date with current legislation.
He added, “Being able to trust them more and not having to kind of worry about whether the contracts we used… are they even legal? Maybe they even meet the legal requirements. So yeah, that was very much the starting point.”
Creating new contracts meant copying and pasting from old ones, risking embarrassing mistakes like “accidentally putting the old client’s name on the new project’s contract.” Contracts were scattered across “different files and folders,” making it hard to find the right document quickly or get a clear overview of client agreements.
As a small business, BR One often received contracts from larger clients for review, but lacked the in-house legal expertise to confidently assess or negotiate changes.
Cloud Contracts 365 delivered a suite of solutions that directly addressed BR One’s pain points:
Markus described the platform as “almost like a little bit of an insurance… to sleep a little bit better at night, making kind of trusting our contracts a bit better a bit more.”
He added, “I now feel I can trust the contracts that we are sending out to existing clients and to new clients.”
The platform’s questionnaire-driven contract builder was a game changer:
“The speed of creating a new professional services agreement… to create a new PSA and get that out to a new prospective client within, I mean, yeah, almost minutes. It’s… brilliant really. And definitely been a time saver compared to how we did it previously.”
No more copy-paste errors or hunting for the right template—just fast, accurate, professional contracts every time.
Markus now uses Cloud Contracts 365 as “the place to go for all client contracts. Both the ones that we’ve created and sent to clients, but equally the ones that came from the clients and have been sent to us for signature.”
He highlighted the importance of “filtering and sorting… I use this as a bit of a one-stop shop for all our client contracts, and then I need to sort and filter on client and contract type… pretty quick and easy, ideally.”
When a client’s legal team requested changes, Markus leveraged the integration with Law 365:
“I then kind of reach out to Law 365 and to Kim, got a quote on how much it would be for Law to help us review our client’s reviews and that was super quick and easy… I had a call with Kim to review the contract… you guys were acting as our little legal department when we needed it.”
He emphasised the value of this on-demand support:
“The speed… was really brilliant as well… not having to wait for a week and a half before someone came back to us… it was a matter of, I don’t know, a few hours… it was really time critical because it was a brand new [client].”
With Cloud Contracts 365, BR One can confidently send contracts to even the most demanding clients:
“Just the fact that, you know, it was good enough for to be reviewed by someone else’s legal team… it felt pretty good to be able to send a contract that was, you know, good enough to be reviewed by someone else’s legal department.”
