Module · Workflow

Requests and approvals that leave a trail.

Route any request through the right approvals — with multi-step sign-off, org-aware routing, and an immutable audit trail on every decision. From hot-work permits to change and access requests, built for work where every approval has to be accounted for.

What you can do

Approvals that match how your operation is actually run.

  • Multi-step approval chains

    Route a request through as many reviewers as the work demands — single sign-off or a full chain. Approve, approve-with-conditions, request changes, reject, escalate, or reopen.

  • Org-aware routing

    Submissions flow up to the right reviewer in your organization automatically. People see and act on only the work within their part of the org — no manual hand-offs.

  • Immutable audit trail

    Every action — who submitted, who approved, what changed, when — is recorded in an append-only event log. Tamper-evident, and complete years later.

  • SLA tracking

    Set time thresholds per workflow and see what's waiting, what's overdue, and where a request is stuck in the chain.

  • Conditional resubmission

    Rejected work isn't dead — request changes, the owner fixes and resubmits, and the cycle continues without losing the history of what came before.

  • Any request type

    From hot-work permits, lockout/tagout, and confined-space clearances to change, access, and deletion requests — structure any submission that needs sign-off, with the right chain built in.

The lifecycle

From request to a locked, auditable record.

  1. 1

    Draft — the owner builds the request and the system holds it privately until ready.

  2. 2

    Submitted — it enters the approval chain and routes to the right reviewer.

  3. 3

    Under review — reviewers approve, approve with conditions, request changes, or reject.

  4. 4

    Decision — approved work goes active; changes route back to the owner to fix and resubmit.

  5. 5

    Closed & archived — the record is locked, with the full approval history preserved.

Workflow is one module of 10+

Pair it with Inspection and Logs for end-to-end accountability.

Gate inspections behind an approval, route requests through the right people, and keep an immutable trail across all of it. Run Workflow on its own or combine it with the suite.
