Reliable monitoring of deadlines and guarantees

Why is reliable monitoring of deadlines and warranties crucial?

Deadlines, maintenance, licenses and warranty periods are easily overlooked in everyday life - especially if they are maintained in different lists or systems. This increases the risk of missed deadlines, unnecessary costs and unplanned extensions.
i-doit manages deadlines and warranty periods centrally and monitors them automatically. Contracts, maintenance, licenses and warranties are clearly assigned and continuously checked - without any manual checks or additional overviews.

Individual threshold values and the recipient group for notifications can be flexibly defined - from individual persons and departments to ticket or third-party systems.

Advantages:

  • Automatic monitoring of all deadlines and guarantees
  • Clear assignment to responsible persons and objects
  • Less risk thanks to early and predictable action
  • Reliable basis for planning and decisions

Timely notifications before expiry

How do timely notifications ensure planning security?

If deadlines are only noticed shortly before they expire, there is hardly any time to make informed decisions. Extensions, maintenance or replacement measures are then carried out reactively and under time pressure.
i-doit informs responsible persons in good time before deadlines, maintenance, licenses or warranty periods expire. Thanks to freely definable lead times, you retain control at all times and can prepare measures in a structured manner.

Advantages:

  • Timely information instead of short-term reaction
  • Sufficient time for extensions, maintenance or replacements
  • Fewer breakdowns and unplanned costs
  • Clear planning security in day-to-day business
  • Relief for the responsible teams

Escalation levels for notifications

How do escalation levels ensure that no deadline is overlooked?

If notifications go unnoticed - due to absence or substitution, for example - critical deadlines can still be missed. Manual tracking is time-consuming and error-prone.
i-doit supports structured escalation levels for notifications. If a responsible person does not respond, other people involved or managers are automatically informed - traceably and without manual effort.

Advantages:

  • Automatic escalation instead of manual follow-up
  • Clear responsibilities even in the event of absences
  • Greater commitment for critical deadlines
  • More security for compliance-relevant processes

Transfer of contracts and deadlines to ticket and third-party systems

How are deadlines transferred directly to ticket and third-party systems?

Notifications alone are often not enough - tasks must be actively transferred to operational processing. Media disruptions between documentation and operations lead to delays.
With i-doit, contracts, deadlines and escalations can be transferred directly to connected ticket or third-party systems. If action is required, tickets are automatically created or processes triggered, while i-doit remains the central data source.

Advantages:

  • Automatic ticket creation for deadlines or escalations
  • Clear tasks instead of just notifications
  • Seamless integration into existing service and ticket processes
  • Fewer media disruptions between documentation and operations
  • Better traceability of measures and reactions
