I have a question about the storage of contracts such as QAA, specifications, etc.
Do these documents have to be kept on paper or is it sufficient in digital form? Especially with signature?

ISO 9001:2015, clause 7.5.2 b) states that documents and records can be in any media, paper or digital.
Some organizations keep digital documents and records on digital form and simultaneously keep in paper form all those that at some moment during its life cycle have to be in a paper, for signatures for example. More than ISO 9001:2015 requirements I would check if is there any legal obligation in your country of keeping signed contracts in paper form.
