Eliminating Missed Statutory Deadlines

Under the Building Safety Act 2022 and Health and Safety at Work Act 1974, commercial duty holders must demonstrate continuous compliance records. Automated document intelligence ensures expirations trigger proactive scheduling 60 days in advance.

Where Document Intelligence Solves Compliance Headaches

Commercial property estates accumulate thousands of multi-page PDF certificates annually: EICRs, fire risk assessments, gas safety records, TM44 reports, and legionella water test sheets. Document AI parses unstructured PDFs to automatically extract inspection dates, re-test due dates, engineer accreditation numbers, and C1/C2/C3 defect codes—eliminating manual data entry.

The Non-Negotiable Legal Competence Boundary

AI cannot legally certify a building system as safe or compliant. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, Electricity at Work Regulations 1989, and ACOP L8, duty holders are legally bound to engage qualified "Competent Persons". AI assists with record-keeping, gap detection, and calendar reminders, but legal responsibility remains entirely human.
