When a lapsed date stops the line

Manufacturing compliance has an unusual property: the cost of a missed date is rarely the fine. It is the downtime. A pressure vessel inspection that lapses takes the vessel out of service. An expired environmental permit can halt a process entirely. An operator whose certification ran out cannot run the equipment, and if they are the only certified operator on that shift, the line stops.

These obligations accumulate quietly across a plant. Equipment inspections on statutory cycles, calibration records for measurement devices, operator certifications for forklifts and cranes and confined space entry, environmental permits with agency-specific renewal windows, quality certifications like ISO with surveillance audits, and supplier insurance that must remain current for anyone working on site.

Most plants track these across several disconnected systems: a maintenance calendar for equipment, an HR file for operator training, a compliance binder for permits, and someone's spreadsheet for everything that does not fit elsewhere. The gaps between those systems are where lapses happen.

Sound familiar?

  • A required inspection lapses and a line has to shut down
  • Operator certifications expire without anyone noticing
  • Environmental permit renewals slip and trigger penalties
  • Supplier insurance lapses and exposes the plant to risk

Built for plant-floor compliance

One inventory across every obligation type

Equipment, people, permits, and suppliers tracked in a single filterable dashboard rather than four disconnected systems.

Recurring cycles that roll forward

Mark an inspection complete and the next due date is calculated automatically from the cycle, so recurring obligations never need re-entering.

Certificates stored with the record

Attach inspection certificates, calibration records, and permits directly to the item so evidence is retrievable during an audit.

Escalation for overdue obligations

Notify a plant or EHS manager automatically when something passes its date, before it becomes a stop-work discovery.

Custom fields per category

Add asset tags, serial numbers, permit numbers, and agency references as structured fields specific to each category.

Audit-ready reporting

Produce a dated status report for internal audits, certification bodies, or regulators without assembling it manually.

Statutory equipment inspections
Pressure vessels, lifting equipment, boilers, and cranes carrying mandated inspection intervals.
Operator certifications

Frequently asked questions

Can ExpiryLedger handle recurring inspection cycles?

Yes, and this is the core function. Set a renewal cycle — monthly, quarterly, six-monthly, annual, or two-yearly — and when you mark an inspection complete the next due date advances automatically from the scheduled date. Recurring obligations never need to be re-entered.

Can I track both equipment and people in one place?

Yes. Items are categorised freely, so equipment inspections, operator certifications, permits, and supplier insurance all live in the same filterable dashboard. Custom fields let each category carry its own relevant detail, such as asset tags for equipment or licence numbers for operators.

Does it store the inspection certificates themselves?

Yes. Documents can be attached to any tracked item and are stored privately, accessible only to members of your organisation through short-lived signed links. During an audit the certificate is attached to the record showing its current status.

Can we run separate workspaces for each plant?

Yes. You can create multiple organisations and switch between them from a single login. Each has its own items, team, reminder settings, and reports, with data isolated at the database level.

What reporting is available for audits?

Export a dated PDF or CSV showing every tracked obligation with its status, sorted with overdue items first. ExpiryLedger also maintains an append-only audit trail recording who renewed or changed each record and when, which cannot be edited or deleted.

How do we get our existing records in?

Import a CSV of your current tracking spreadsheet. Common column headings such as name, category, expiry date, cycle, and owner are matched automatically, so most existing spreadsheets import without reformatting.
