Overview
Icertis is an enterprise contract lifecycle management (CLM) platform, marketed as the Icertis Contract Intelligence (ICI) platform, that digitizes and structures contracts so organizations can automate authoring, negotiation, execution and post-execution obligation management at scale. It is aimed at large enterprises with complex, high-volume contracting needs across legal, sales, procurement and finance functions.
The platform covers the full contract lifecycle: intelligent contract setup with configured attributes, templates and clause libraries; guided, role-based authoring workflows; redlining, playbooks and approvals for negotiation; e-signature; and post-execution monitoring of obligations, milestones and renewals. Icertis Copilot and other AI capabilities (including a Risk Assessment Copilot) generate contract summaries, flag risk against predefined parameters, and surface portfolio-wide analytics and dashboards.
Icertis is deeply positioned around ERP and procurement ecosystem integration rather than standing alone: SAP has taken a financial investment stake in Icertis and the two companies jointly ship "SAP Ariba Contract Intelligence by Icertis" as an SAP Solution Extension, and Icertis also ships packaged integrations for SAP S/4HANA, SAP Fieldglass, SAP CPQ, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management, Salesforce, Coupa, and Workday.

Strengths & considerations
Strengths
- SAP has made a direct financial investment in Icertis and jointly ships it as the first SAP Solution Extension for contract lifecycle management (SAP Ariba Contract Intelligence by Icertis)
- Deep, packaged integrations across multiple ERP/procurement ecosystems simultaneously (SAP S/4HANA, SAP Ariba, SAP Fieldglass, SAP CPQ, Dynamics 365, Coupa, Workday) rather than a single-ERP focus
- Enterprise-grade contract data modeling that supports complex, large-scale contracting relationships across legal, sales, procurement and finance
ERP integrations
Live SAP Store listing. Icertis also lists separate SAP Store listings for SAP Ariba, SAP CPQ with S/4HANA (sell side), and SAP Fieldglass.
Embedded third-party CLM experience inside Dynamics 365 Supply Chain Management; executed contracts create/sync purchase agreements. Listed on marketplace.microsoft.com (a different domain from appsource.microsoft.com), so recorded here as a documented prebuilt connector rather than a certified marketplace listing.
Syncs master data from Workday Financial Management/Procurement and HCM into ICI; executed contracts sync back to Workday. No public Workday Marketplace listing URL confirmed.
Connector details independently verified against vendor marketplaces and documentation; last checked 2026-08-11.
