Publish contracts to the Contractor Portal

The contract's Method of Communication option is used to manage how your business (the contracting organization) and the contractor organization communicate.

The following methods of communication are available:

• Contractor to Communicate via Contractor Portal

  This option enables the contractor organization to use AVEVA Contract Risk Management to create, approve, agree, not agree and reject contract communications.

  AVEVA Contract Risk Management automatically generates and sends all applicable notifications to the contractor through both the Contractor Portal and email when applicable.

  Warning When this method of communication is selected the contractor will be able to see the contract immediately.

• Contractor to Communicate via Other Means

  This is the default option and enables the contracting organization to use AVEVA Contract Risk Management on behalf of the contractor (by proxy). If this setting is selected, AVEVA Contract Risk Management does not send any notifications to the contractor organization.

  Note If this option is selected, communications can be edited when in any state except for Not Agreed and Rejected.

1. Navigate to the home page of the contract.
