NBS Contract Administrator has been designed to be intuitive and simple to use. Projects and Contract Administration Forms are organised on the left-hand side of the screen. The centre of the screen is used for editing project details, contacts and forms, with the right of the screen displaying guidance. Users of other NBS products will find the user interface of NBS Contract Administrator familiar.

Extensive guidance is provided in the software and gives both detailed advice and information about contract administration, communication, and guidance on how to complete the contract administration forms on screen.
