Can an expiry reminder be automated?
A reliable date can trigger a reminder well before urgency begins.
The reminder should account for preparation time, ownership and the current renewal status.
Centralise the expiry date, trigger the first reminder early enough to act, assign an owner and stop the sequence when renewal is confirmed, declined or no longer required.
