Sales 1-PagerMost Companies Don't
Actually Track Compliance.
They think they do — because they have a spreadsheet. But between missed cells, buried email attachments, and nobody remembering to check, the reality is a ticking liability clock.
FM Buddy™ changes all of that — permanently.
The Old Way
How most companies manage compliance today
Scattered folders & spreadsheets
Documents live in shared drives, email inboxes, and physical filing cabinets. No single source of truth — different people have different versions.
Manual expiry checking
A staff member manually scans spreadsheet rows every week, or month — if they remember. Missed cells = missed deadlines = compliance failures.
Expiry surprises
Certificates lapse unnoticed until an audit, a near-miss, or a fine. The first warning is often a penalty notice — or worse, an incident.
Email chaos from contractors
Contractor PDFs arrive in inboxes with no standard format. Someone has to open each one, read it, extract the dates, find the right folder, and file it manually.
No portfolio-wide visibility
Managers have no instant answer to 'what percentage of our portfolio is compliant right now?' — producing a status report takes hours of manual aggregation.
No audit trail
When something goes wrong, there's no record of who uploaded what, when, or who reviewed it. Defending your position in an audit becomes guesswork.
The FM Buddy™ Way
Intelligent, automated, always-on compliance
AI-powered document intake
Contractors email documents directly to your FM Buddy inbox. AI reads the PDF, extracts all key data, and files it in the right property and category — automatically.
Automated expiry alerts
FM Buddy monitors every document expiry date and sends automated email alerts to property managers 30 days before anything lapses. Zero manual checking.
Real-time compliance dashboard
Live compliance scores for every property, category, and manager. Instantly see what's current, expiring soon, or overdue — across your entire portfolio.
Instant gap detection
The Compliance Gaps Tracker shows you exactly what's missing — by property, by category, by manager — so you can close gaps before they become risks.
Centralised, searchable library
Every document, for every property, in one platform. Searchable, filterable, and accessible from any device. No more hunting through folders or chasing emails.
Full audit trail & security
Every action is logged — who uploaded what, who reviewed it, when it was approved. MFA-protected access with role-based permissions for total accountability.

What's Actually at Stake?
Legal Liability
In Australia, failure to maintain current statutory compliance certificates can expose building owners and managers to significant fines, civil liability, and prosecution under WHS legislation.
Safety Incidents
Lapsed fire safety certificates, unchecked sprinkler systems, or expired electrical inspections are not just compliance failures — they are potential causes of injury or death.
Insurance Voidance
Many commercial property insurers can void claims if it can be demonstrated that required compliance certificates were expired at the time of an incident.
Stop Hoping. Start Knowing.
