Approval rules are remembered, not enforced.
Case study
Purchase Request System
Approvals vary by person, amount, location, and vendor without a clear system.
Operating problem
What keeps breaking.
Comments are scattered across chats and emails.
Purchase status is unclear to requesters.
Audit history is weak when decisions are questioned.
Build model
The work becomes a clearer system.
Route approvals by rules, capture comments, notify owners, and preserve audit trails.
Operating path
Requests route by amount, vendor, location, role, and approval rules with a decision record.
AI/product layer
Summarize evidence, identify the right approver, and draft the approval rationale.
Reusable improvement
Repeated exceptions become clearer thresholds, routing rules, and policy notes.
Workflow
The sequence becomes explicit.
