Strengthen the partnership between finance and legal.

Vendors submit invoices to Brightflag, which are routed through the approval matrix and preferred review workflow. If adjustments are requested, the submission and review process repeats until final approval is received, at which point the invoice is sent to AP for payment.

Brightflag reminds vendors to submit accruals so you don’t have to. Vendors receive multiple notifications leading up to the close of each accrual period, and submit their unbilled estimates directly in Brightflag’s secure portal, eliminating the need for back and forth in emails and spreadsheets.

Budgets can be set for departments, entities, or matter groups, and for individual matters or matter phases. Out-of-the-box reports give an unprecedented view into the critical drivers of legal spend. And when it comes to forecasting spending on new matters, evaluate similar historical matters as a reference.

Brightflag includes all the features finance and internal audit teams require to maintain compliance with the Sarbanes–Oxley Act (SOX). Brightflag’s independent SOC 1 Type II audit report and related documentation is available under NDA through Brightflag’s Trust Portal.
