We had a great response to our survey of how New Zealand’s in-house legal teams are adapting to business and economic challenges.

The results reveal that in-house legal teams are facing the crunch with time constraints, and becoming more efficient is a clear driving factor behind in-house transformation initiatives.

Key survey findings:

  • More than half of all in-house teams (52%) are prioritising digitisation and efficiency as a strategic initiative
  • Over 40% of respondents are looking to change how they work with internal stakeholders, with a big focus on using toolkits and play-books to create more of a self-service model
  • Lack of time is the main challenge for delivering transformation activity
  • Increasing efficiency is the key driver for transformation activity for 92% of in‑house teams
  • The top 3 technologies respondents plan to implement are:
    • Workflow tools
    • Document management
    • Digital signing
