Where contract approval usually goes wrong

Contract versions multiply

Redlines and drafts move between people and it is unclear which is current.

Internal sign-offs are informal

Someone says 'fine by me' in a thread that later disappears.

Reconstructing the trail is painful

You need to show who reviewed which version before it was sent.

How it works

  1. Create the request

    Reference the contract version and link or attach the document.

  2. Reviewers decide

    Each reviewer approves, rejects or requests changes with comments.

  3. Track new versions

    When the contract changes, submit a new version and re-collect decisions.

  4. Keep the internal record

    See who approved which version and when.

Example scenario (illustrative)

Vendor services agreement, v3

An operations lead asks the finance lead and COO to review the latest agreement. Reviewer: Finance lead and COO.

  1. Requester

    Sends version 1 of the agreement for internal review.

  2. Reviewer

    Requests changes: payment terms should be net 45.

  3. Requester

    Sends version 2 reflecting the updated terms.

  4. Reviewer

    Approves version 2.

  5. Result: The team has an internal record of who approved which version before it went to signature elsewhere.

Why teams use it for contract approval

Version-specific decisions

An approval applies to one version and never carries over.

One place for internal comments

Less digging through threads.

A clear internal trail

Record who agreed, and when.

Every approval follows the same loop, so you only learn it once.

  6. Record

    Timestamped approval record

Questions

Does ApprovalLoop replace legal review?

No. It coordinates internal approvals. Your lawyers and legal process still do the legal review.

Is this contract lifecycle management (CLM)?

No. It handles the review-and-approve step only.

Can people sign contracts in ApprovalLoop?

No. It is not an electronic-signature product, and approval records are not legal signatures.

ApprovalLoop does not replace legal review, contract lifecycle management or electronic signatures. ApprovalLoop keeps a timestamped approval record. It is not a legal electronic signature.
