Flux
Mid-market finance
Approval workflow automation

Approvals that stop waiting on someone's inbox.

Flux Flow routes the approvals a finance team already runs, keeps the trail, and tells you where a request is sitting.

The problem

The process works. The waiting is the cost.

4 days
typical capex approval, most of it queueing
1 person
knows the exceptions, and takes holidays
0 trail
reconstructing why something was approved means asking someone
What teams run today

A shared sheet, a mailbox rule, and a person who chases. It works at low volume, and keeps working right up until month-end close, an auditor's question, or a holiday.

What it costs
  • Requests sit in a queue nobody can see
  • Exceptions live in one person's head
  • The trail is assembled after the fact, by hand
What Flux does

One workflow, routed and recorded.

Route

Requests go to the right approver, in the right order, with a named backup when someone is out.

Record

Every decision keeps its date, its approver, and the evidence attached to it.

Report

Cycle time per step, and where requests are sitting right now.

Approvers keep their authority. Flux changes where the request waits, not who decides.

How a pilot runs

Four weeks, one workflow, nothing switched off.

Week 0
Baseline: the last ten requests, from your own records
Week 1
Configured to your steps and approvers
Weeks 2–3
Live requests routed through Flux, the old path still open
Week 4
Handover: your team runs it, we observe

The existing process keeps running for the whole pilot. This is a parallel test, not a migration.

What it has to prove

Agreed in writing, measured on your data.

If a criterion is not met, it is not met. The pilot ends with the numbers, whatever they say.

Next step

Pick the workflow that costs you the most time.

A 45-minute session
  • Walk one recent request end to end, with dates
  • Name the approvers and the backups
  • Agree the criteria the pilot has to hit
What you leave with
  • A written scope for one workflow
  • The baseline we will measure against
  • A date for the handover session
