Automating Handoffs: The Perfect Baton Pass Between Departments in 2026

The Handoff is the most dangerous moment in a process. Sales sold the project, but Operations doesn't know what was sold. The result? The customer receives the wrong thing. Automating the handoff ensures information arrives complete and on time for the next team.

• Sales: "I already sent the email."
• Ops: "Didn't get it, or the brief was missing." Automation eliminates hearsay.
