THE INCREMENTAL PATHWAY / GC
Illustrative. Adapted to your requirements.
Our 80/20 approach uses a shared structure, then tailors the priority, data, tools, controls and success measures. The balance varies with your needs; it is not a fixed scope or a promise of results.
| Measure | Illustrative baseline / target | Actual result |
|---|---|---|
| Effort before | 6 lawyer hours / matter | Establish baseline |
| Effort after | 4 lawyer hours / matter | To measure |
| Quality / effectiveness | No missed material issues in the review sample | To measure |
No completed trial or achieved benefit is claimed in this sample.
Privilege, confidentiality, jurisdiction, professional judgement and delegated authority shape the workflow. AI drafts and classifications require legal review.
Illustrative scope: One repeatable commercial contract category
Core team: Commercial counsel + deal owner + legal operations
Capacity goes into: More priority deals supported earlier
Scale gate: The legal owner accepts review quality and privilege handling; comparable matters show less total effort without missed material issues.
Connected ownership: Revenue agrees the deal priority; Legal owns advice and authorised fallback positions.
Agree scope, fees, participant effort, approved data and success thresholds before starting. Adapt by business unit and region; examples are not verified client results.
