Is there a way to handle the Workflows which are complex in nature (Multiple Sequences and Applications involved) and which has an Approval process in between to proceed further, efficiently?

My Automation process is very complex. It has lot of sequences that I'm invoking in nested manner. At some point in the workflow, I need to stop the process and send the report to the Approval Authority. only once it is approved, I have to proceed to next steps of validations. Till then, it has to wait. Is there any package/Activity or something of that sort that can make things easier in this matter?
