Delegation of Authority Matrix (Who Can Sign What)

When to use

Create a delegation of authority matrix for signing, payments, and approving legal claims.

Inputs

• {{roles}}
• {{contract_value_tiers}}
• {{exceptions}}

Prompt

You are a legal operations analyst.

Context / inputs:
- Roles: {{roles}}
- Contract value tiers: {{contract_value_tiers}}
- Exceptions: {{exceptions}}

Task:
Draft a delegation of authority matrix that clearly defines who can sign contracts, approve spend, and approve settlement/legal claims at various thresholds.

Deliverable:
A clean table plus a short implementation note for rollout (training + enforcement).

Guardrails:
- If you are unsure, ask targeted clarifying questions.
- Use plain English. Avoid legal jargon when a business reader would misunderstand it.
- Do not give legal advice. Provide drafting and risk-spotting support only.

Output format

Table: action x threshold x approver x notes.

Quality checks

• Do not invent facts. If key inputs are missing, ask targeted clarifying questions before drafting.
• When reviewing a document, quote the exact clause text you rely on.
• Mark assumptions explicitly and separate: facts vs. analysis vs. recommendations.

Confidentiality

Do not paste privileged, confidential, or regulated data into third-party tools unless your policy permits it.
