21 days.
Five phases.
No tool to deploy.
A Vendor Contract Review Sprint runs end-to-end in 21 days from kickoff. We do the engineering, the configuration, and the first-pass review. Your team validates. The deliverables land in your inbox at the end of the sprint.

What happens between sign and delivery.
No discovery month, no kickoff workshop series, no implementation phase. The sprint clock starts the day you sign. It stops, with deliverables in your hands, 21 days later.
Kickoff
Ninety minutes on a call. You share your review playbook, contract types in scope, severity definitions, success criteria. If your playbook is tribal knowledge instead of a document, we formalize it together on the call. You keep the doc regardless of what happens next.
- ·Playbook intake · clause priorities, severity rubric
- ·Contract types confirmed · jurisdiction, language
- ·Success criteria · what 'good' looks like on day 21
- ·Encrypted upload link sent · DPA pre-signed
Encrypted upload
You drop 20-30 vendor contracts into the encrypted bucket we set up for you: Azure EU, isolated tenant, audit-logged. No IT integration, no SSO setup, no Box plugin. If your SharePoint or Box link is easier, we can pull directly with read-only credentials you revoke after the sprint.
- ·Encrypted upload · EU data residency (Frankfurt)
- ·Or read-only pull from your SharePoint / Box
- ·DPA covers GDPR processor obligations
- ·30-day deletion default · 7-day on request
Pipeline configuration + first pass
We configure the analysis to your playbook (required clauses, severity definitions, jurisdiction-specific rules) and run it across your contracts. Every flag is reviewed by a human before it lands in your register, with the evidence pinned to its exact location in the source PDF.
- ·Configuration · your playbook compiled into pipeline rules
- ·OCR · clause-match · contradiction flag · evidence pin
- ·Human first-pass review · severity confirmed
- ·Daily progress note · no surprises at delivery
Quality validation
Every finding is checked. Evidence quote matches its citation. Severity is defensible against your playbook. Recommended action is drafted. Owner field is suggested. A finding that doesn't survive validation gets dropped. We'd rather hand you a tight register than a noisy one.
- ·Evidence verbatim against original PDF
- ·Severity defended against your rubric
- ·Action drafted · owner suggested
- ·Noisy flags dropped · register trimmed
Delivery + readout
You receive the five-artifact package in your inbox. Forty-five minutes later, you're on a call with the engineer who ran the sprint. We walk findings, agree priorities, plan next steps. No PowerPoint, no junior associate handoff. Recording and notes follow.
- ·Findings register · executive memo · evidence pack
- ·Methodology note · founder-led readout call
- ·Optional redline drafts where you supply fallback language
- ·30-day post-sprint support starts
We need 90 minutes of your team.
Everything else happens on our side.
- Your review playbookOr a checklist. Or tribal knowledge. We'll help you formalize it on the kickoff call.
- 20-30 vendor contractsPDFs in a folder. We handle OCR, ingestion, parsing.
- Severity definitionsWhat's sign-blocking vs negotiable for your team. We can propose a default if you don't have one.
- 90 minutes for kickoffOne call. Recorded. Notes shared after.
- 45 minutes for readoutDay 21. Decisions and priorities, not a sales pitch.
- IT integration or SSOWe don't touch your systems. Encrypted upload is the only handoff.
- Procurement workflow for SaaSThis is a one-time professional services engagement. Fixed-scope SOW. No license, no auto-renewal.
- InfoSec review of a platformNothing to deploy. DPA, data residency, deletion policy on one page, ready for review.
- Train your team on a toolThe deliverables are an XLSX, a PDF and Word docs. Your team already knows how to read those.
- Project-manage usYou get a daily progress note. We surface blockers; we don't ask you to chase them.
The sprint doesn't end at delivery.
Four things ship with every sprint at no additional cost. Each one solves a specific problem that comes up after delivery, when your team is in the middle of negotiations, board reviews, or audit prep.
30 days of post-sprint support
Email or Slack with the engineer who ran your sprint. Clarification on findings, methodology questions, support when a vendor pushes back. Not unlimited consulting, but you don't go silent into the void.
Re-analysis at 50% (once you've remediated)
After you negotiate with vendors and get v2 contracts back, send them over. We re-run with the same playbook and deliver a comparison report: what’s fixed, what persists, what’s new. Same engagement, half the price.
Comparative industry benchmark
A short addendum to your memo showing how your playbook compares to typical industry standards from public contracts. Useful when your GC needs to know whether you're asking for too much or too little vs market.
Playbook formalization session
If your review rules live in three associates’ heads instead of a document, we run a 90-minute session before the sprint and hand you a written playbook you can use next year, with or without us.
What we commit to, in writing.
- SECURITY PACKET
- Before kickoff: data flow, encryption posture, retention, deletion, audit logging and DPA terms, shared for your InfoSec to review
- KICKOFF
- Within 3 business days of a signed SOW and receipt of your materials
- BLOCKERS
- Any blocker or data-quality issue flagged to you within 1 business day
- CORRECTIONS
- One factual-corrections round after delivery, at no additional cost
- DELETION
- Deletion confirmation provided after the agreed retention window
- INCIDENTS
- Security incidents notified without undue delay via the named incident contact
