Legal Requirements Management with Legnova: Less Time, Less Rework, More Traceability

If legal requirements management is still handled with spreadsheets, shared folders, and "someone remembers the deadline," the cost doesn't show up in Excel — it shows up in audits, license renewals, and the SGI team's weekends. Legnova exists to reverse this: less time hunting for evidence, less rework, and ready traceability when the auditor asks.

The Real Problem of Legal Requirements Management

It's not a lack of laws. It's a lack of operation. The matrix grows, the standard changes, a new unit comes in, the license expires — and the team spends hours answering: “does this apply?”, “who owns it?”, “where is the evidence?”, “who changed it yesterday?”. True legal requirements management answers these questions in seconds, not in meetings.

Legal Inbox: The Standard Arrives Filtered — Not the Whole of Brazil

In Legnova, new standards enter the Legal Inbox with a filter by CNAE and State. You assess applicability, accept them one by one, or use Accept All when the batch makes sense. What enters becomes a requirement in the matrix, with obligations generated — without copying and pasting from the official portal to the spreadsheet.

Result: less time sorting and less risk of “it was left out because no one opened the DOE.”

Compliance Checklist: From Law Text to Step-by-Step

Each requirement comes with a pre-filled compliance checklist. The team marks progress and attaches evidence in the same flow. Instead of rereading the document on the eve of the audit, you see what needs to be closed — item by item.

Traceability: Who Did What, When

Audits and certifications require history, not just today's status. Legnova records traceability by requirement: changes with date, time, and author. Less “it was João, I think” and more objective logs — the gold when the certifying body asks.

SGI Map: One Requirement, the Entire Operation Around It

In the requirement detail, the SGI Map shows what is linked: obligations with deadlines, action plans, documents/evidence, and traceability itself. One click opens the link. No more hunting between tabs, folders, and emails.

Obligations, Licenses, and Conditions at the Same Pace

Legal requirements management without deadlines is theater. In Legnova:

• Obligations with responsible person and date — evidence to conclude;
• Licenses (LP, LI, LO…) with renewal and attachments;
• Conditions with status and proof of compliance.

The dashboard and alerts notify what is close to expiring or overdue — before the inspector or auditor.

5W2H Action Plans Linked to the Requirement (and NC)

Gap turns into a 5W2H action plan with leader, deadline, and status — linked to the requirement and non-conformities. Improvement stops being a slide and becomes a traceable operation in the SGI.

ISO in the Same Flow — Without Orphan Module

Legal requirements and management systems go hand in hand. Legnova covers the core ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001 (aspects/impacts, hazards/risks) and add-ons under proposal. Checklist by standard, NCs, and evidence in the same product — not in three tools.

Audit Readiness and Trail

When the visit arrives, the team doesn't “assemble a folder”: they use the readiness checklist, reports, and the system's audit trail. Issued PDFs can be publicly validated. Legal requirements management stops being a rush and becomes an auditable routine.

How Much Time and Work Legnova Takes Out of the Way

• norm sorting concentrated in the inbox (CNAE/State), not in ten portals;
• batch acceptance when the scope is clear;
• ready checklist — less inventing “what to comply with” from scratch;
• evidence in the requirement, not in a loose folder;
• automatic history for audit;
• deadline alerts in licenses, obligations, and plans;
• ISO, NCs, and plans in the same SGI.

Start with Legal Requirements Management — The Rest Fits In

Starter already covers legal operation and SGI (inbox, matrix, ISO, NCs, licenses, IA). Professional adds ESG (materiality, GHG, GRI) in the same flow. Services under proposal (audit, outsourcing, ISO implementation, customized modules) come in when the scope requires people on the project.
