The Flex™ Platform

Optimizing End-to-End Enterprise Revenue Dynamics through Each Phase of the Contract Management Lifecycle

The Revitas™ Flex™ platform is the industry’s only integrated platform powerful enough to drive effective Enterprise Revenue Dynamics strategies. It provides the foundation for complex contracting, pricing, and compliance efforts by enabling the management of agreements holistically across the enterprise – maximizing the full value of contractual trade relationships and transforming contracting into a competitive advantage for companies. A fully integrated strategic technology platform, Flex empowers companies with significant visibility, control, and leverage over the entire contract management lifecycle – from creation through pricing execution.

Flex™ comprises a process-driven suite of applications to manage and optimize the planning, creation, monitoring, analysis, and administration of all agreements across the organization. Unlike any other in the industry, the Flex platform delivers powerful capabilities and is:

Agile – With application and user configurability at the platform level, Flex can easily accommodate an enterprise’s evolving needs. Whether updates affect the contract lifecycle, user actions, workflows, or business rules adjustments, changes can be implemented system-wide or for individual processes from a commonly-shared, intuitive user interface (UI).

Extensible – Features like load balancing and clustering allow the processing of large volumes of data without causing delays. Data integration points within Flex enable the system to flexibly grow with existing ERP, CRM, financial, and procurement systems, driving maximum benefit from existing investments.

Secure – Platform level, enterprise-grade security affords the level of protection that contracts and revenue management require. Single sign-on and passwords are encrypted with application-level access checks via an external authentication server. Granular authorization can be role-based, feature level, data level, and context-specific.

The Flex™ platform offers a breadth of functionality to optimize end-to-end Enterprise Revenue Dynamics.
