Regulatory Obligation Register Agent

Every obligation has an owner, a due date and current evidence in one register.

Regulatory Obligation Register Agent: what goes in, what the agent does and what you get

What it does

A new rule changes inspection frequency, and no one knows who owns the task or whether last year's certificate is still valid. This agent reads new rules and notices from the regulators you follow and maps each to an obligation with an owner, a frequency and a due date. It checks whether evidence exists, such as a record, certificate or inspection report, and whether it is still in date. Missing or expired evidence triggers a request to the owner and a recheck after they respond. It keeps the register current and reports gaps. The leader approves register changes. Edge case: a rule applies only to sites above a size, so the agent checks each site against the threshold.

How it works

Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.

How it decides

It adds an obligation when a rule applies to a site or process on the list, and marks it a gap when evidence is missing or expired.

  • Add an obligation when the rule applies to a listed site or process.
  • Treat expired evidence as a gap.
  • Warn owners 30 days before expiry.
  • Escalate to the leader when a gap is over 10 days old.

Make it yours

Every agent is a starting point. You choose these settings for your own situation.

  • Regulators followed
  • Sites and processes in scope
  • Expiry warning (default 30 days)
  • Owner assignment rules

What keeps you in control

It always asks you first

  • Leader approves register changes

Hard limits

  • Cite the rule for each obligation
  • Do not give legal advice

It stops when

  • Done: register current.
  • Stop: rule unclear, so the leader asks for legal review.

An example run

What happensA new waste handling rule applied to sites over 500 employees. The agent found 3 sites in scope and created 4 obligations. For one site, the evidence check failed because the permit expired August 31. The agent requested the renewal from the owner and rechecked 5 days later. The new permit was found, and the leader approved the register update.
