The challenge

An issued license is not a compliant license

After the license come the permit conditions, reports, renewals and inspections. When all of that lives in spreadsheets and email, risk shows up at the worst possible moment.

1

Deadlines in someone’s head

Renewals and conditions tracked in spreadsheets depend on someone remembering to open the file in the right week.

2

Scattered evidence

Reports, filing receipts and proof in network folders and inboxes. When the inspector arrives, the search begins.

3

No big picture

Each site tracks things its own way, and leadership only learns what is at risk when someone consolidates everything by hand.

How it works

From registering the license to proving compliance

  1. 01

    Register licenses and conditions

    Each license comes in with the conditions it sets, linked to the site it belongs to.

  2. 02

    Assign owners and deadlines

    Conditions become activities with an owner, checklist and due date. Outside consultants get their own role.

  3. 03

    Get the right alerts

    Automatic reminders with each obligation’s lead time, in a digest that does not flood your inbox.

  4. 04

    Prove and track

    Evidence stored with version history, and dashboards showing the status of every site.

Testimonials

In our customers’ words

Managing countless permit conditions and the many activities tied to Rio Energy’s projects in development, construction and operation is a huge challenge. Keeping deadlines and schedules on track is very demanding. Licentia has contributed a lot to our internal organization and management. We also use it to manage stakeholders and ombudsman requests.

FAQ

Questions about environmental licensing management

What is environmental licensing management software?
A system that centralizes licenses, permit conditions, deadlines, documents and owners across all of a company’s sites, with automatic alerts and indicators. It replaces scattered spreadsheets and folders with a single, traceable record. See the product.
How does Licentia track permit conditions?
Each condition has a status (not met, in progress, late, met, and met after the deadline), a deadline, an owner and linked evidence. See permit condition tracking.
Does the system warn me before a deadline?
Yes. Owners and managers get alerts with the lead time you configure, and a digest groups overdue and upcoming commitments. See alerts and deadlines.
Can environmental consultancies use Licentia?
Yes. Consultancies use Licentia to run their clients’ processes, and outside consultants can access a company’s system with their own role. See Licentia for consultancies.
How much does it cost?
The Basic plan is R$ 700 per month (up to 3 sites and 3 users) and Premium is R$ 1,300 per month (up to 7 sites and 10 users). Corporate is tailored. See pricing.
