CobbleStone Software and WSIPC Cooperative Purchasing will host a joint webinar for K‑12 professionals on July 23, 2026 to outline software tools intended to simplify management of vendor agreements and compliance obligations.
What the event covers and who’s speaking
The virtual session is scheduled for 1:00 p.m. to 1:30 p.m. Eastern and is aimed at administrators and staff who handle high volumes of contracts, from vendor agreements to education services arrangements. Presenters named in the announcement are Alex Carraro, account manager at CobbleStone Software, and Cynthia Gefeller, contract administrator at WSIPC.
Features being demonstrated
The organisers describe the webinar as focused on contract lifecycle management (CLM) functionality that is tailored to the education sector. The materials listed by the companies say the demonstration will include:
- Generative AI tools — examples given include a chatbot, risk-insight reporting and contract sentiment analysis.
- AI-assisted negotiation and redlining, plus negotiation playbooks.
- Automated obligation tracking with task creation and alerting.
- Searchable, reportable contract repository and flexible workflow agents.
Why organisers say this matters
The announcement frames contract management for school systems as a complex, high‑volume process where delays or gaps can have cascading effects on budgets and classroom resources. The vendors position CLM tools as a way to reduce administrative burden, centralise records and support compliance tracking.
