You need the System Settings Admin permission to integrate third party applications that work in conjunction with Contracts such as Salesforce, BidSync, DocuSign, and Adobe Sign. DocuSign and Adobe Sign are applications that allow electronic signatures (eSignatures) to be obtained on a contract document in a secure environment.

BidSync is a tool used by Public Agencies to organize, automate, and manage their procurement process. It is also used by suppliers to increase their efficiency in responding to Public Agency requests for bids and proposals.
