Your Monthly Checks Need Doing - and Proof They Were Done.

Anything that happens on a defined schedule - daily, weekly, monthly, quarterly, annually, or any custom interval. Common categories: fire-safety visual checks, vehicle pre-use inspections (DVIR), opening / closing checklists, equipment service sign-offs, first aid and supplies inventory, cold-storage temperature logs (FDA / HACCP), fire door and exit checks, COSHH / hazmat labelling reviews, slip-trip-fall walkthroughs, calibration drift checks, ISO internal and surveillance audits, lift / LOLER / OSHA elevator inspections, and any quality, safety, or compliance routine your team or regulator has defined.

An expiring document (a licence, certificate, contract) has a single end date and a renewal action. A recurring check generates a new instance every cycle - January's inspection is separate from February's, with its own owner, deadline, and evidence. ExpiryEdge handles both: the document side gives you "before this expires" alerts, the recurring side gives you "this needs doing every month" workflows with full historical record.

Every completion stores: who marked it complete, when (timestamp), notes added, and any uploaded photo or signed form. The history is searchable and exportable per check type and per location. When an insurer, regulator, or quality auditor asks for evidence over a date range, you filter the log, export the report, and respond inside one screen.

ExpiryEdge sends the assignee a reminder before the due date. If the deadline passes without completion, an escalation alert fires to the configured manager. Overdue checks are flagged red on the dashboard so they cannot quietly accumulate. The whole point is for missed checks to surface immediately, while there is still time to act.

Yes. Each check has its own schedule, its own owner, its own escalation path, its own evidence requirements. A vehicle pre-trip can be daily (owner: each driver). A fire-extinguisher visual can be monthly (owner: facilities). A COSHH labelling review can be annual (owner: EHS). All running independently in the same workspace.

Yes. Every instance of every check is preserved with full history - who, when, evidence, notes. You can filter by check type, by location, by owner, by date range, and export to CSV or PDF for audit packs. This is also how insurers respond to claims: documented recurring inspections shift the burden of proof to the claimant.

EHS platforms (Vector Solutions, Cority, EHS Insight) and CMMS platforms (UpKeep, Limble, Fiix) are deep verticals - best when you need a single discipline (safety alone, or maintenance alone). ExpiryEdge is the cross-discipline option for teams who want recurring checks, expiring documents, contractor compliance, and SOP workflows in one place - without paying for, or training on, a $40k EHS suite.
