Improving Approval Workflows and Policy Governance

 

Client Profile

A leading Food Manufacturing Company.


Business Challenge

The organization relied on fragmented, email-driven approval processes spread across multiple systems. Users lacked visibility into approval status, executives and field teams had limited mobile access, and enforcing policy controls—such as delegation of authority—was difficult. These gaps also made maintaining audit readiness and governance consistency a recurring challenge.


Solution

Converge delivered a centralized approval platform built on SAP BTP. The solution unified approvals across business functions, automated policy-driven workflows, and integrated directly with SAP S/4HANA to create a consistent, auditable, mobile-enabled experience for all stakeholders.
