Use Cases
SLA & Obligation Tracking
Clarative’s context layer combines knowledge of existing data source systems, business nuance, and context about user intent to create a virtual data model, purpose-built to answer your question or to help you discover data.
The Challenge
Modern vendor agreements contain many obligations and complex service level commitments, yet most organizations lack the tools to track them effectively.

With procurement teams stretched thin, critical obligations often slip through the cracks, leaving value on the table and exposing organizations to unnecessary risk.

Organizations struggle to effectively track and enforce vendor obligations, resulting in:
Missed Opportunities
Service credits and other remedies go unclaimed due to lack of systematic tracking
Manual Overhead
Teams spend countless hours manually monitoring SLAs across multiple agreements
Proving Violations
Without automated tracking, organizations struggle to document and prove SLA breaches
Scattered Obligations
Critical commitments buried in lengthy contracts are often overlooked or forgotten
Reactive Management
Issues are discovered only after they impact the business
