IT outsourcing often seems like a logical and manageable story: choose a supplier, make agreements, sign a contract and you’re done.

When multiple parties collaborate on something big, and interests, expectations, and responsibilities become intertwined, then strong contract governance is not a...

But in practice, we see it happen over and over: tools that nobody uses, licenses that get out of hand, suppliers that promise but do not deliver. And in hindsight? It...
