Periodic risk and compliance status updates

Purpose

1.1. Automate the scheduled collection, integration, and summarization of risk and compliance statuses for mining operations.
1.2. Facilitate automated aggregation of audit logs, environmental reports, operational incidents, and compliance deviations from multiple internal and external systems.

1.4. Automatedly distribute compliance status summaries to key stakeholders via preferred channels (email, dashboards, messaging).
1.5. Automate flagging of missing or noncompliant data for corrective action and escalation.
1.6. Reduce manual labor and error rates by automating data reconciliation before each submission cycle.
1.7. Enhance transparency and auditability through automation of recurring compliance documentation and digital record-keeping.

Trigger Conditions

2.1. Time-based triggers (e.g., end-of-month, weekly, quarterly) to automate report initiation.
2.2. Event-based triggers such as new compliance event logged, audit result finalized, or flagged incident in core mining systems.
2.3. Threshold-based triggers to automate follow-ups when risk or compliance scores breach predefined values.
