Adoption Management workflow

How this capability moves work from signal to outcome.

The Adoption Management workflow is configured around the records, roles, decisions, exceptions, and reporting requirements that make this topic distinct.

01

Match interest to an animal

Preserve the animal, campaign, event, or page that prompted the application so the team starts with context.

02

Route the application

Assign by animal, location, species, program, urgency, or staff capacity and make the review stage visible.

03

Keep communication together

Store questions, documents, scheduling, approvals, declines, and next steps on the application timeline.

04

Follow the placement

Trigger contracts, payment, records, resources, check-ins, and outcome reporting after the decision.

What to measure

Know whether adoption management is becoming more reliable.

ARC confirms definitions, source, owner, period, and review cadence before any measure is used for management or public reporting.
