Permitting Software FAQs

What is permitting software?

Permitting software enables jurisdictions to track and manage processes associated with permit requests from citizens. It also eliminates the need for paper-based processes which are difficult to manage and create bottlenecks and inefficiencies around historical tracking. Permitting software also allows you to understand community needs and manage growth. 

Why do I need permitting software?

Permitting software reduces steps and creates efficiencies that allow staff to accomplish more with fewer resources. Having all your jurisdiction’s data in one central location aligns different departments and promotes trust with communities through more affordable and faster request processing. 

What should I look for in permitting software?

All permitting software is different. You need to evaluate the departments that handle permits and make sure the software you choose meets each of their unique needs. Permitting software should streamline existing processes and encompass the tools you need to do more with less.
