Prove the data before you scale the migration.

Koho's Migration Acceptance Benchmark is a controlled test of representative, difficult legacy contracts against the fields and acceptance rules your team approves before a full migration begins.

Our old agreements sit in a shared drive. Some are scans, and renewal dates were never recorded.

HOW WE WOULD START

Test the hard contracts first.

We take representative, difficult contracts, extract only the fields you approve, and show the source text behind every value.

Who reviews itYour reviewers check each value against its source
Your team decides.

Review the measured results and the exception list, then decide how the full migration should run.

Data Migration & Extraction

Your contracts and their metadata, moved into the new system and verified.

Problem

Legacy contracts live in shared drives, inboxes, and old systems with inconsistent or missing metadata. Migrating them badly poisons the new platform on day one.

Approach

We first test representative, difficult contracts against fields you approve. The measured results, source evidence, and exception map define how we extract, review, load, and validate the production migration.

QUESTIONS

Answers to the common ones.

We agree on the fields, document families, labels, and acceptance rules with your team before testing begins. The benchmark then uses representative contracts, including the difficult scans, amendments, tables, and signature patterns that can expose migration risk. Each accepted value is connected to source evidence, while missing, conflicting, or unsupported values are recorded as exceptions for review. We report field-level precision, recall, and F1 where approved labels support those measures, alongside citation resolution, exception rates, reviewer effort, processing cost, and target-CLM load validation. Your team reviews the evidence and decides what is accepted, what needs another pass, and what requires remediation. That creates a reproducible acceptance record tied to your documents and definitions. We do not replace that evidence with a generalized accuracy promise or a raw confidence percentage that has not met the published calibration gate.

We start with representative document families and the contracts most likely to expose extraction, review, or loading problems. The benchmark records the approved field definitions, field-level results, source citations, exception categories, reviewer effort, processing cost, and target-CLM requirements. We also separate standard documents from complex packages so the production estimate reflects the work actually present in the portfolio. Those findings become the basis for the production workflow: which families can move through a standard path, which need specialist review, how exceptions are resolved, and how completed records are validated in the destination system. The rollout estimate covers expected volume, review capacity, cost, sequencing, and known dependencies. Your team can then approve a production scope with visible assumptions and acceptance criteria instead of relying on a single process or price that treats every legacy contract as equally difficult.
