The Clause That Could Have Crashed Production
A Missed Line, a Million-Dollar Loss—Averted by AI | Case Study
Industry: Electronics Manufacturing | Region: Asia | Use Case: Supplier Contract Risk Review
With supply chains tightening across Asia due to raw material shortages, an electronics manufacturer faced a dangerous blind spot: dozens of active supplier contracts scattered across borders, some unsigned, others outdated, and many in different languages. Amid pressure to ramp up output, the legal team discovered discrepancies in key terms—force majeure, liability caps, and delivery obligations.
They turned to aiMDC. The platform rapidly ingested contracts from suppliers in Taiwan, Malaysia, and Korea, analysing over 1,200 pages in multiple formats. Within hours, it flagged contracts missing crucial delivery guarantee clauses and liability exposure hidden deep in the multilingual fine print. aiMDC’s pinpoint highlighting allowed the legal team to zero in on exact paragraphs and address risks before production dependencies became liabilities.
By acting early, the company renegotiated terms with two vendors and dropped a third altogether — averting an operational bottleneck that could have cost millions. Not only did the manufacturer protect its quarterly output, but it also demonstrated to board members and auditors that proactive legal diligence was now a strategic advantage.
Client
Environment
Objective
To identify legal risks—especially delivery liabilities and indemnification gaps—within active supplier contracts before disruptions triggered financial or reputational damage
What was done
aiMDC was used to analyze over 1,200 pages of supplier agreements, cross-checking clauses, jurisdictions, and risk factors. The AI flagged delivery gaps, inconsistent liability terms, and outdated or missing regulatory provisions
Achievement
The company avoided a projected $4.2 million in losses by proactively renegotiating contracts that lacked enforceable delivery obligations during a critical period of raw material scarcity. aiMDC’s granular, source-linked analysis helped the legal team not only identify buried risk factors but also explain them clearly to procurement and executive teams. The firm dropped one risky supplier, secured tighter SLAs with two others, and standardized future contracts using insights gained through AI review. For the first time, contract risk became a measurable, actionable asset—not a latent liability.
