Orqit Approvals – Secure, Auditable Decision Workflows illustration
Strategic positioning

Orqit delivers a centralized, policy-driven approvals framework that integrates with all core modules, provides real-time status, and ensures every decision is logged for audit.

Who this is for

  • Compliance officers managing policy approvals
  • Change managers overseeing release gates
  • Department heads requiring spend and resource sign-off

Operational pain points

  • Email-based approvals Slow, non-auditable chains that disappear from systems of record.
  • No visibility Pending approvals create bottlenecks without a single queue.
  • Manual routing errors Missed escalations and policy violations slip through.
  • Audit gaps Auditors struggle to prove compliance without immutable records.
Execution-aware ITSM

See the full impact chain—not just the symptom

Users define approval policies (e.g., change requests over $10k require CFO sign-off). The engine evaluates each request, routes to required approvers, tracks status, and records a tamper-evident audit log. Approvers receive contextual information and can approve or reject with a single click, triggering downstream workflows automatically.
