The official gazettes, watched without reading them
Alerts on publications, tracking for deadline-bearing calls, and monitoring of director appointments and removals. The alert takes you to the official text; the reading stays yours.
What it does
Nobody reads the whole BOE every day. It gets read when somebody flags something, and that somebody is usually a client asking about a piece that was published a fortnight ago.
The BORME has the same problem wearing a different face: appointments and removals at the companies a firm works with are published, are public, and are noticed by whoever is looking. Everyone else finds out when the director who used to sign is no longer the director.
The BOE and BORME integration gathers that watch in one place. You run the review from Mandato and it alerts you to what matches: publications naming your clients or the subjects you follow, calls that carry a deadline, and appointments and removals at the companies you track.
How it works in Mandato
You define what to watch: specific clients, specific companies, specific subjects. When you run the review, Mandato goes through recent publications and raises an alert when something matches what you defined.
The alert arrives with a link to the official publication and, where the watch is tied to a client or a company, it is recorded in their matter. The conversation with the client starts with you telling them, not with them asking you.
Deadline-bearing calls are handled separately, because they carry a date. Tracking a call puts its expiry into the same calendar that holds LexNET's procedural deadlines.
The BORME feeds the corporate watch: if a company you follow publishes an appointment or a removal, you are told. Together with the tracking of RMC filings, the firm knows who represents whom without re-checking by hand every time.
The watch also changes the firm's standing with the client. A lawyer who calls on the day of publication is giving advice; one who answers a fortnight later is handling a complaint. The difference between those two conversations isn't legal knowledge, which is identical, but who found out first — and finding out first is exactly the work Mandato automates.
Mandato tells you something has been published, uses AI to flag which matters may be affected, and takes you to the official text. It does not replace reading the gazette or the legal assessment: the alert triggers professional work, it is not an opinion.
Frequently asked questions
What exactly can I watch?
Publications naming your clients or the companies you follow, calls that carry a deadline, and appointments and removals published in the BORME.
Does the alert summarise the rule for me?
The alert tells you what has been published, flags which matters may be affected and takes you to the official publication. The legal interpretation remains the lawyer's work, and we are not going to pretend we do it for you.
Do calls land in the calendar?
Yes, with their expiry, in the same calendar as procedural deadlines.
