The products this solution puts together.
Who holds what, and what happens when it runs out
Know who holds what, and what's about to run out.
Every certification shows how many people hold it, how many are expiring and how many have run out. Each person carries theirs on the phone.


Tell people when something happens.
A workflow can tell the person, a role or whoever manages work there. Here, a certification ran out: it tells the person, then has their manager sign to take them off that work.

Know who has finished what.
One list for the sites you can see: who passed, who didn't, what's waiting for a sign-off and what's overdue. Export it when an auditor asks.

The problem on the ground
The spreadsheet knows. Nobody opens it.
The spreadsheet. One person keeps it. It's right the week they update it.
The card. The real one is in someone's truck. The copy is in a drawer at the office.
The lapse. A forklift card ran out last month. You find out when someone's already on the machine.
One record. In PortalBase each certification sits on the person's record with its expiry, and the alerts go out on their own.

Works with no signal
The wallet opens offline, at the gate, in the cab or at the trailer.
03
A QR code per person
It opens their wallet in the app and links to their full record.
When a card runs out
From the alert to the renewal
Step 1
Warn
A workflow can start a number of days before a certification runs out.
Step 2
Tell
It tells the person, and whoever manages work where they are.
Step 3
Hold
That manager signs that the person is off that work until it's renewed.
Step 4
Renew
The training that renews it can be handed out again. Passing it can issue the new certificate.
Records you can hand over
Ready when someone asks
- Exports. Certificates as PDF. Training records as CSV.
- One history per worker. Courses, skill checks, signatures and certs sit on the same history, and you can export it.
- Every number opens its records. Who's current and who isn't, by site, team and role, with every number opening the records behind it.
- Ask PortalBase AI. Ask which certifications run out soon. It reads the records as the person asking, so they only see what they could open in the app.
