Top 5 Collaboration Tools:
-
1. Contractor Interface
Allow your contractors to work with you online requesting permits, inspections, paying fees, reading and responding to review and inspection notes, uploading needed items, etc. Of course, if you get lonely, you can always make them come to your permit counter.
-
2. Plan Reviews
Manage plan reviews across departments, buildings and agencies. Collaborate on a single interface where everyone has a transparent view of review notes, status and response times. Email or print an overview of all reviews for interested parties or Development Committees. No more hunting through email, computer files, and manilla folders to find what you need. Just click your mouse and poof! There it is. Every time.
-
3. Mobile Inspections
Auto-assign inspectors by inspection type or inspection load. Each inspector can use his inspection list to create inspection routes and print tickets. Or, go paperless and take your laptop or touch-screen to the field. Got a smart phone? Use the free mobile interface.
-
4. License Check
Allow contractors to select subs from your approved list. Keep them from selecting subs with license issues. Stop permit and inspection requests by checking key expiration dates such as state license, local registration, general liability and worker's compensation.
-
5. Inspections IVR
You already get a full contractor interface, but some people just hate computers. Well, every contractor has a phone. So, give them an IVR (Interactive Voice Response) and allow them to request inspections and get results by calling our toll free inspection line.
