Clinical Research Company Standardizes Contract Playbooks and Empowers Team to Build More

Axiom attorney helped:

Wallet, saved

Build tailored playbooks for MSAs, SOWs, LOIs and NDAs from the client’s own contract templates 

Gain an estimated 40% in efficiency*, with 5 core users trained on DraftPilot in about 11 weeks

Replace review that relied on institutional knowledge with standardized playbooks for regulated clinical contracts 

Challenge

The client wanted AI to help create and standardize playbooks across a range of commercial contract types, driving consistency and efficiency across a team of attorneys. They had their own contract templates, but no playbooks existed to apply them consistently, and the attorneys were unfamiliar with the tool.

Approach

Axiom deployed an attorney alongside DraftPilot, partnering with and working under the direction of the client's in-house team, to develop tailored playbooks from the client's own templates and deliver training to the internal contracting teams. Coverage spanned MSAs on both the buy and sell side, SOWs and work orders, LOI, and NDAs, with licenses set up for the core team.

Impact 

  • The team is now comfortable with the mechanics of DraftPilot, building their own playbooks rather than only using the ones we delivered.
  • Standardized playbooks replaced review that ran on individual institutional knowledge.
  • Templates can now be tuned against recurring counterparty positions, cutting redlines on future negotiations.
  • Four contract types covered, including the regulated agreements specific to clinical research.
