Core Features

An Optimized User Experience with Powerful Functionality

Self-Funded SaaS

Self-Funded SaaS

Platform Modules

Flexible Modules for Civic Services

Designed for Community Development, Environmental Health, and Planning Departments specifically, yet useful to any agency looking to digitize any of the processes enabled through Community Works core modules. 

Platform Modules

Electronic Plan Submission & Review

Digitally review building plans from anywhere.  Upload, comment, and request revisions right from your computer or tablet. Builders, architects, and other end-users with applicant-set record access can submit, track, manage, and update plans digitally. 

Permitting

Apply the CW smart workflow to agency permitting processes.  Seamlessly receive electronically submitted applications; track, approve or deny permits across multiple departments.  Applicants are always in the loop with digital access to the complete permitting process, online payment, step-by-step tracking, and real-time notifications specific to each user’s project needs and communication preferences.

Mobile Inspections

Manage your inspection schedule digitally, route your day, and perform inspections on a tablet from the field.  CW inspection forms are designed for mobile use on a tablet accessible anywhere.  Leave the sticky notes behind; all inspection site data is easily accessible from inspection forms.  Save related data, notes for future inspections, and images before you even leave the site.  Applicants will be delighted with real-time inspection reports emailed to them and uploaded to their inspection request. 

Code Enforcement & Compliance

Code enforcement can be messy and complex. But with smart forms, mobile collection capability, and a centralized collection point for all case data, agencies gain a clear view of the violation and help community members become compliant efficiently.

Service Requests & Complaint Management

Omnichannel collection points allow for effective engagement with citizens and businesses. Smart forms tailored to your process save staff time in routing, tracking, and resolving issues.

Licensing

Intelligent automation drives licensing applications and renewal. Integrate licensing data across agencies to save valuable time and resources. 

Reporting & Business Intelligence Analytics

Integrated reporting tools use the data and metrics gathered through the digitization of forms and processes to provide department-wide insight about performance, timeliness, and more. Identify reports that are critical to management and have them automatically run at preferred intervals.
