We had that too. So I wrote an (htmldb) application where users go request acess to production. Their manager may or may not grant it. If granted, the automated process unlocks account sends the password to the developer and grants a 2 hour window. 15 minutes before it sends an automated email telling them the acces will be cut off at set time. At the end time, it goes in, kills any active sessions, locks the account. Of course through a db trigger all developer sessions are traced at level 8. We store these trace files for upto 180 days. This was documented as a control for SOX, auditors blessed it and we are happy with it.
