About This Automation

Scope change requests arrive via email and require manual routing to the right approvers, email chasing, and spreadsheet updates. This creates delays, missed approvals, and scattered records across multiple tools.

Automation reads incoming requests, determines the approval chain based on budget impact, sends approvals to the right people with deadlines, and escalates missing responses automatically. Approvals are tracked in real time and project records update instantly.

Key features
Route scope changes to the correct approvers based on budget impact and project type
Send approval requests with clear deadlines and full change context
Escalate missing approvals automatically after 24 hours
Track approval status and signatures in real time
Update project records and notify stakeholders when approved

How The Automation Works

The full workflow, from trigger to completion.

1. Scope Change Submittedtrigger

A new scope change request is created or received via email.

2. Extract Change Details

The automation reads the change description, budget impact, and project ID from the request.

3. Route to Approvers

Based on budget tier and project type, the automation identifies the correct approvers and sends a structured approval request with a clear deadline.

4. Collect Approvals

Approvers respond or sign. The automation logs each approval decision and timestamp.

5. Update Project Record

Once all approvals are collected, the automation updates the project with the approved change, new timeline, and budget adjustment.

6. Notify Stakeholders

The automation sends a confirmation message to the project team, client contact, and finance and email with the approved change details.
