Key Takeaways
- Develop Contracting Centers of Excellence (COEs). COEs play a pivotal role in standardizing processes, ensuring compliance, and driving innovation, as well as testing and validating technologies like GenAI, while emphasizing governance and oversight.
- Data quality and transparency is crucial for GenAI. Clean datasets and reliable reference sources are essential for successful AI implementation. Transparency, such as adopting a “show your work” approach, helps avoid pitfalls associated with black box solutions.
- Take a phased approach to implementation and adoption. The cost-benefit analysis of AI integration should prioritize solving business problems and generating revenue. Pilots and gradual expansion help organizations align technology with readiness and specific goals.
- A future-ready workforce needs to be adaptable. As technology reshapes legal processes, professionals must embrace evolving skill sets, focus on tasks like contract management, and stay open-minded to constant change and innovation.
