What to track
The renewals facilities teams usually manage.
A starting list of the recurring inspections, tests and documents that commercial and residential buildings commonly need. Use it to check your register for gaps.
This is a checklist, not legal advice. What a building needs, and how often, depends on the country, the type of building, its use and the equipment in it. Intervals change. Your qualified people and current official sources decide what applies; Dueclear tracks what you decide.
