Risk threshold (in contract approval)
A risk threshold, in contract approval, is the configurable boundary that determines when a workflow advances automatically versus when it requires human approval. Risk thresholds are typically set per agreement type, financial value, and counterparty tier. Risk thresholds are distinct from risk scores: thresholds are decision boundaries; scores are situational measurements that may inform threshold evaluation.
Why this matters
For the teams that work with this concept daily
Risk thresholds are how enterprise governance gets operationalized. Without explicit thresholds, every agreement requires the same review depth — producing backlog. With explicit thresholds, workflow advances at the appropriate pace per case.

IntelAgree imports your risk threshold configuration on day one. Saige Assist evaluates each agreement against thresholds at every gate, advancing workflow within bounds and escalating to human approval at threshold breaches.
Common questions
Questions buyers ask about risk threshold (in contract approval)
-
How are risk thresholds set?
Configured per your enterprise governance: agreement type, financial value, counterparty tier, jurisdictional context. Thresholds are reviewable and updatable; changes are audit-logged.
-
What if our governance doesn't have explicit thresholds?
Implementation surfaces the thresholds you operate by implicitly. Adoption is an opportunity to make governance explicit — and auditable.
