The mobile application downloads all the daily inspections to the iPad where you then go out and do your inspections. If your iPad is directly connected to the internet with mobile access, inspection data is uploaded directly in real time as you complete you work. If no internet is available, the data is uploaded once an internet connection is available. Enter your inspection comments, take pictures and mark them up in the field. View permit data, messages and download attachments like plans in the field. Cancel inspections and Re-Schedule them directly from the iPad. Email your comments along with images directly to the client right from the iPad.

Export the data directly as an Excel Spreadsheet or view them on the GIS Map. Once configured, go back often to run the data extractor to get the data you need. Monthly or Annual reports are now easy to run at the touch of a button.
CITIZEN PORTAL
Allow the citizens to participate in the permit process or even find out what is happening in their neighborhood using our Citizens Connect portal. Citizens can search for existing permits, apply for new permits, request inspections, make payments on existing permit and upload documents and plans. All of these are 24/7 and accessible to the citizen. Utilizing our Active Permits Map, citizens can see where the work is being done on a map. Cut down on public records requests by allowing the permit information to be public and accessable.
