Poorly integrated and/or antiquated solutions force ongoing demand for skilled workers able to support aging technologies utilizing near obsolete code languages and system architectures.

Current technology adoption bolsters the efforts of governments to transition workforces from inefficient paper administration to the modern digital skillset—facilitating improved collaboration to deliver optimized service outcomes. Freed from the shackles of time-consuming bureaucracy, senior leaders have more time to focus their efforts on the planning, analysis, and strategizing crucial for driving economic development benefits […]

Antiquated software solutions are less ‘green’ resulting in a higher carbon footprint from infrastructure consumption, paper driven processes, and business users commuting for services.

The elimination of in-person visits and paper-centric processes creates numerous positive environmental impacts reducing the overall carbon footprint and reinforcing the public perception of your agency as an innovation leader delivering new and improved opportunities for automation-led digital transformation and citizen engagement.

Design and publication of software services too dependent upon highly technical users.

Document records can have any number of associated data attributes, including document type […]

Limited or no community engagement capabilities.

Designed to meet the needs of planning applicants and the community as a whole, POSSE PLS Planning can notify surrounding property owners of any relevant activity. The “buffered notification” process uses the power of GIS to automatically identify surrounding parcels within a user-defined range and create automated mail-outs for all property owners.

Limited or no online payment options.
