A document management template brings documents and contracts together in one place, with due dates organized in a calendar. Instead of loose folders and a deadline spreadsheet, you keep each document attached to its contract and see renewals before they expire. Tools like [Jestor](https://jestor.com/?ref=blog.jestor.com) help with this through ready-made templates.

## Why documents and contracts get separated

It's common for the contract to sit in a spreadsheet and the PDF in some folder. When it's time to check a clause or renew, the hunt for the file begins. And without a due-date calendar, renewal is always a last-minute surprise.

A document management template joins document and contract and puts deadlines in a calendar.

## What the template organizes

- Documents attached to contracts (GED/EDM)
- Kanban of contracts by status
- A due-date calendar
- KPIs for active, inactive, and due-in-30-days
- Pending renewals highlighted

## Why the electronic document management model helps

- Each document sits next to the right contract
- Due dates appear in a calendar
- Renewals are seen ahead of time
- The search through loose folders ends
