Record every end date in one place
Energy, broadband, phone, card processing, insurance, waste, water and software. One sheet with supplier, rate, end date and notice deadline is the entire system.
Set two reminders per contract
One six months before the end date to start the review, and one two weeks before the notice deadline as a hard backstop. Two reminders eliminate almost every accidental rollover.
Assign an owner
A calendar without a named owner fails the first time someone is on holiday. Assign each line to a person, and review the whole sheet at one fixed meeting each year.
