Legal departments are under pressure to execute contracts faster while maintaining compliance. Twala provides a secure digital signing platform designed for Philippine legal standards. This article outlines how to successfully deploy Twala across your legal operations from integration to team enablement ensuring that contract processes are both efficient and compliant.
Step 1: Prepare Your Contract Templates and Approval Flow
Start by identifying high-volume legal documents such as procurement contracts, NDAs, employment agreements, and service level agreements. Create pre-approved templates and define the signing sequence for each document type.
Step 2: Establish Role-Based Permissions in Your Signing Workflow
To maintain security and accountability, set clear access controls within your digital signing system. Define who can draft, review, approve, and sign legal documents based on their roles. Legal teams, executives, and administrative staff should have tiered permissions to prevent unauthorized changes and ensure compliance throughout the contract lifecycle.
Step 3: Enable Legal-Grade Identity Verification
Compliance begins with signer authentication. Twala supports various methods, such as eKYC with a government-issued ID.These tools align with Republic Act No. 8792 (E-Commerce Act) and the Rules on Electronic Evidence and Notarization issued by the Supreme Court.
Step 4: Train Your Legal and Compliance Teams
Equip internal teams with the knowledge to use Twala effectively. Onboarding materials and walkthroughs can help users understand how to initiate a signing request, review audit logs, and manage contracts within the system.
Step 5: Monitor Signing Activity and Ensure Legal Integrity
Every signature made through Twala is logged with a time stamp, device information, and user identity. These audit trails support legal defensibility and are especially useful during contract disputes or compliance reviews.
Deploying Twala is more than just digitizing the signature process. It gives legal teams the tools to scale operations, shorten contract cycles, and remain compliant with local legal standards. With the right setup, legal departments can improve agility without compromising control.
