A modular approach to drafting

Print This Post
John Giles

We often recommend and use a modular, object-orientated approach to drafting documents (like agreements and policies).  Akin to building a document out of lego blocks.  Not always, but often. It does not suit every agreement nor every offering.  We find that the following are some of the benefits to using this structure:

  • Sign documents faster;
  • Avoid protracted negotiations;
  • Quicker and easier to generate documents and conclude agreements;
  • Find what you are looking for easily;
  • Mistakes and unauthorised amendments are reduced;
  • Redundancy is avoided;
  • Inconsistencies become impossible.

So what is this approach?  This approach is best illustrated with a diagram.  To download the diagram
