What is contract approval software?
Contract approval software routes contracts to the right approvers through configurable workflows, tracks every decision and moves approved contracts to signature. Aavenir adds dynamic approver selection, clause-level approvals and native e-signature, with a full execution audit trail.
Governed approvals, without the chasing.
Automated approval workflows
Route contracts to approvers through configurable workflows for consistent, governed decisions.
Dynamic approver selection
Select approvers when the approval starts, so the route fits the specific contract.
Clause-level approvals
Route batches of deviating clauses to the right teams through ServiceNow workflow.
Legal escalation
Critical clauses go to legal for specialist review while business users resolve lower-risk deviations.
E-signature
Send, sign and track contracts through native DocuSign, Adobe Sign and Conga Sign integrations, without leaving the workflow.
Execution audit trail
Approvals, signatures and timestamps are recorded automatically, as defensible evidence of how a contract was approved.
From final draft to signed contract.
| Step | Step | What happens | Done by |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Start approval | The owner starts the approval and selects or confirms the approvers. | Contract owner |
| 2 | Route clauses | Deviating clauses go to the right teams, and critical ones to legal. | Rules and workflow |
| 3 | Approve | Approvers act from the workflow, with reminders and escalations for overdue steps. | Approvers |
| 4 | Sign | The contract goes to e-signature and every step is logged in the audit trail. | Signatories |
Approval is one stage of the Contractflow lifecycle.
