Description

Avolve Software specializes in creating tailored, AI-driven electronic plan-review tools aimed at enhancing government permitting and community development processes. Its flagship offerings, primarily ProjectDox and DigEplan, empower local governments, counties, and state entities to transition to a fully digital plan-review system that streamlines every stage, from the initial submission and document upload by applicants to comprehensive cross-departmental reviews, annotations, and final approvals. The platform promotes efficient collaboration among various stakeholders, including those in building, planning, fire safety, engineering, public works, and utilities, by unifying review processes, comments, version control, and communication within a single digital environment. A notable feature of Avolve's software is its incorporation of GIS capabilities through a partnership with Esri, which allows reviewers to superimpose vital spatial data, such as utility networks, zoning information, and infrastructure layers directly onto plans in real time, thereby enhancing contextual understanding and minimizing potential review mistakes. This innovative approach not only streamlines workflows but also fosters a more transparent and accountable review process across all involved parties.

Description

GovtPermits is a no-cost, web-based system designed for building departments in municipalities, enabling residents to submit their building permit applications, make payments, and monitor their application statuses completely online. This system provides staff with a unified review queue that replaces cumbersome paper files and shared email accounts. Additionally, residents are given the ability to create self-service accounts where they can save drafts, view the status of their applications, and pay any extra fees—all conveniently organized under their email addresses. For the staff, the platform offers features to filter applications, update their statuses (which sends automatic notifications to applicants), and allows for customization of branding and fee structures. Remarkably, this solution comes at no cost to the departments, eliminating the need for software licenses or per-user fees, with cities having the discretion to decide whether to pass the flat application fee onto residents. Ultimately, this innovative platform streamlines the permitting process for both residents and city officials, enhancing efficiency and accessibility.
