For programme teams

The paperwork is not the work, but the work waits for it

A partnership cannot start until the MOU is signed, and a distribution cannot start until the partner agreement is back. Every day the document sits somewhere is a day the programme does not run.

Two programme staff and a local partner reading a clipboard of forms together at a rural site.

What this looks like today

Field partners are not at a desk

A signature workflow that assumes a laptop and a stable connection does not fit how partners actually work.

Nobody knows which partner is the blocker

Eleven MOUs out, three back, and no way to see which eight to chase without opening eleven email threads.

Reporting deadlines arrive before the file is found

The signed agreement exists. Locating it is a twenty-minute job.

What Baton does about it

1
Send to a phone, not to a workstation
The signing page is built for one hand on a phone and is tested on real iOS Safari, not only on a desktop browser pretending to be small.
2
Watch the whole cohort at once
Filter the board to this programme’s documents and see all eleven, with the age of every wait.
3
Find it again by what it says
Search reads the text inside the agreement, so “reporting deadline March” finds the MOU without you remembering its filename.

What is true right now

Send to several partners at once, or in sequence, using the same routing numbers.
Up to 200 recipients on one document.
Every signed PDF downloads as an ordinary file with its certificate attached.
