Creating an AI-Powered Business with Hitachi Vantara

Enhancing Contract Review and Accessible Institutional Knowledge 

Hitachi’s teams leverage Luminance to take a first pass review of any incoming contract, providing a color-coded risk analysis of which clauses are acceptable, non-standard, risky or missing, all within Microsoft Word. With preferred wording and fallback positions available in the side back and insertable in a click, Luminance has also improved the retention of institutional knowledge.  

With Luminance’s ability to actively learn from senior lawyers’ expertise and apply this knowledge to future negotiations, the entire team can access essential legal knowledge and ensure compliance. 

Empowering Non-Legal Functions 

Luminance also enables non-legal business functions to seamlessly generate compliant contracts. The legal team creates approved contract templates, allowing employees to generate, review and execute agreements that meet internal standards in under five minutes.  

Before adopting Luminance, Hitachi relied on email for contract intake, increasing the risk of siloed documents. Luminance’s Workflow Editor automatically routes contracts for standard approvals, reducing administrative burdens and bottlenecks. 

Gaining Insights and Identifying Opportunities Across the Contractual Landscape 

Luminance’s AI-powered contract repository offers Hitachi’s legal team an instant overview of key information across their contractual landscape. Luminance automatically highlights areas of risk or business opportunity such as key periods within contracts, commencement dates, breaks and expiration. 

“Luminance helps us stay connected within the team. I love the dashboard because it brings us together.”
Jeannine Moran, Director of Legal Operations, AI Tech & Automation
