Two Tools, One Goal: Accelerating Business Agreements
When contracts move slowly, revenue stalls. Legal teams drown in email threads, sales deals get delayed, and procurement cycles stretch into weeks. This is where combining ApproveThis' approval automation with Neosigna's contract lifecycle management creates measurable impact. Together, they turn contract workflows from administrative burdens into competitive advantages.
Neosigna excels at drafting, storing, and tracking contracts but leaves approval coordination to manual processes. ApproveThis fills that gap by adding structured decision-making paths with automatic routing, compliance guardrails, and real-time visibility. Through Zapier integration, these platforms exchange critical data without requiring custom development.
Why This Integration Changes the Game
Consider a $500K vendor agreement stuck because the CFO didn't see the approval email. Or a compliance officer delaying a partnership contract because they were left out of the review chain. These aren't hypotheticals - they're daily realities for teams using disconnected systems. The ApproveThis-Neosigna bridge solves three core challenges:
1. Reduced Legal Bottlenecks
Corporate legal teams using Neosigna can automatically route new contracts through pre-configured approval chains in ApproveThis. For example, all NDAs under $50K get auto-approved, while enterprise contracts trigger multi-department reviews. General counsels gain 40%+ time savings by eliminating manual follow-ups.
2. Cross-Team Coordination
Procurement specialists can initiate vendor contracts in Neosigna that automatically notify approvers in ApproveThis. Finance directors receive email-based approvals with one-click decisions, while sales leads track progress through a centralized dashboard. No more chasing signatures across departments.
3. External Collaboration
When working with clients or partners, ApproveThis allows external users to approve Neosigna contracts without needing a Neosigna license. A construction firm could let architects approve change orders directly from their inbox, while keeping all contracts organized in Neosigna.
Real-World Workflows: Beyond Theory
Let's examine how specific industries operationalize this integration:
Technology Startups
A SaaS company uses Neosigna to manage customer service agreements. When sales reps create contracts over $10K/month, ApproveThis:
- Routes deals to the VP of Sales
- Triggers legal review if custom clauses exist
- Auto-approves renewals under existing terms
Result: 22% faster deal closures with complete audit trails.
Healthcare Providers
A hospital network manages vendor contracts in Neosigna. ApproveThis adds compliance layers:
- New supplier agreements require infection control team sign-off
- Pharma contracts escalate to the ethics committee above $250K
- Automated reminders prevent contract expirations
Outcome: 100% compliance with procurement regulations.
Consulting Firms
Management consultants using Neosigna for client SOWs integrate ApproveThis to:
- Route contracts to engagement leads based on project size
- Require partner approval for discounted rates
- Sync approved contracts to accounting software
Impact: 15% higher margin protection on negotiated deals.
Technical Setup Made Simple
Connecting ApproveThis and Neosigna via Zapier takes under 15 minutes:
- Create a Zapier account (if needed)
- Choose Neosigna as the trigger app
- Select ApproveThis as the action app
- Map contract fields to approval workflows
- Test with a sample contract
Critical pro tip: Use ApproveThis' calculated fields to set dynamic approval thresholds. For example, contracts over $100K could require extra approvers automatically.
Department-Specific Benefits
Legal Teams
Reduce contract cycle times by 65% with automated escalation rules. If a reviewer doesn't respond within 48 hours, ApproveThis reassigns the request or moves it up the chain. Legal maintains control through customizable templates while eliminating status update meetings.
Procurement Specialists
Neosigna stores all supplier contracts, while ApproveThis handles vendor onboarding approvals. When a new supplier is added, procurement teams can require cross-functional sign-offs (IT for security reviews, finance for payment terms) before finalizing in Neosigna.
Operations Managers
Track SLAs with external partners through integrated dashboards. Approved contracts in ApproveThis automatically update Neosigna statuses, while denied requests trigger revision workflows. Operations gains real-time visibility without switching platforms.
External Partners
Clients and contractors approve documents through ApproveThis' email interface without needing Neosigna access. A property management firm could let tenants approve lease renewals directly, while keeping all executed contracts organized in Neosigna.
Beyond Basic Approvals: Advanced Features
While the Zapier integration handles core workflows, ApproveThis adds strategic depth:
Approval Thresholds
Auto-approve contracts under set values (e.g., all MSAs under $25K), or require board-level sign-off for high-risk agreements. These rules sync with Neosigna's contract values for instant enforcement.
Vacation Delegation
Never miss approval deadlines because someone's OOO. ApproveThis automatically reassigns Neosigna contract reviews to designated backups, with full context passed through Zapier.
Audit Trails
Every approval decision in ApproveThis logs timestamped records with reviewer comments. These automatically attach to Neosigna contracts for compliance reporting.
