Intelligent risk management identifies risks during third-party paper import using artificial intelligence (AI)/machine learning (ML) and the risk rules you define. You can define risk identification rules using natural-language search technology and an extensible query builder. These risk identification rules are defined in CLM. During import, you can view the identified risks and take corrective actions. 

Prerequisite

You must either have Intelligent Discovery or Contract Intelligence for CLM enabled to use the Insights option.  To enable either of these options, see Intelligent Discovery or Contract Intelligence for CLM.

To perform Intelligent Risk Management (Insights) 

  1. Create an offline agreement document, check it out, and extract data using either Intelligent Discovery or Contract Intelligence for CLM.
  2. After document extraction, in the Contracts pane, go to Work > Insights. If you do not see Insights under the Work tab, click the More button and, from the menu, select Insights. The list of risks identified by Insights is displayed. The risk name is displayed with a risk-indicating icon in order of risk severity. 
  3. To view the details of the risk, click the More button corresponding to the risk terms and click View Risk Details. You are taken to the document page where the risk is identified. In the Risk details pane, you can view the criteria or condition that was evaluated to generate the risk term. You can also click the risk rating drop-down list and change the risk category. After changing the risk rating, you can go back to view the updated list.
  4. To resolve a risk in the list, click the More button corresponding to the risk terms and click Resolve Risk. The risk is resolved and removed from the list.

    When you click the Resolve Risk button, you are accepting that particular risk in your document. It does not mean that the risk has been addressed. Also, the Resolve Risk option is not compulsory for check-in. You can check the document in without resolving the risks. 

  5. To delete a risk in the list, click the More button corresponding to the risk terms and click Delete Risk.
  6. After viewing the risk details, you can check in the final agreement document. For more information on checking in the final document, see Checking in an Agreement Document.
