“Legal Suite is a true contract management tool that allows us to structure and secure our commitments.”
— Margaux, In-House Lawyer at Groupama Paris Val de Loire
In an increasingly demanding regulatory environment, rigorous contract management has become a key issue for businesses. Groupama Paris Val de Loire chose to rely on the Legal Suite solution to centralize, secure, and manage its contractual commitments.
Margaux, Compliance and Commercial Contracts Counsel, shares her experience and explains how this tool simplifies her team’s daily work while ensuring full compliance with current regulations.
"I am a Compliance and Commercial Contracts Counsel, part of the Legal and Compliance Department.
My role is to ensure that all contracts signed with our partners (service providers, sports clubs, etc.) comply with the applicable regulations — such as GDPR and the Sapin II Law. I also make sure our commitments are legally secure."
"When I joined Groupama Paris Val de Loire, the Legal Suite solution was already in place. I had used this software in my previous position, which helped me get up to speed quickly.
Before Legal Suite, contract management relied mainly on a single Excel file. Ensuring regulatory compliance and tracking the status of contracts was difficult. The database was not secure and could easily be compromised by a simple handling error."
"The first benefit is centralization: all key contract data is gathered in one place and accessible to the relevant legal team members.
We also implemented a tagging system to track compliance (GDPR, Sapin II, etc.), allowing us to generate regular reports and monitor non-compliant contracts to ensure they are brought up to standard.
Legal Suite is a true contract management and reporting tool, enabling us to structure and secure our commitments — and communicate efficiently with senior management, auditors, and business stakeholders."
"It’s a major asset. We’ve set up monthly compliance reports to track non-compliant contracts. This gives us a clear overview and supports internal and external compliance audits.
We even grant read-only access to auditors, allowing them to monitor progress in real time without having to manually review all documents."
"Yes.
Recently, a new General Manager wanted a detailed report on the year’s contractual spending.
Thanks to the information stored in Legal Suite (amounts, partners, deadlines) we were able to quickly produce a clear overview of all current partnerships and committed budgets. This transparency allowed us to make informed decisions about contract renewals or terminations."
"Three features stand out:
"The follow-up has been excellent. From the start, I had access to recorded training sessions, which helped me quickly get familiar with the tool.
Most importantly, whenever I had a question or issue, the support team was responsive and clear, even when dealing with more complex technical topics."
"I would say it’s a flexible and reliable solution that perfectly meets our needs.
It allows us to centralize information, monitor compliance, and manage contractual commitments with rigor.
It also adapts well to different industries — not just insurance — and the customer support really makes a difference."
