Consideration of renewal of contract with Tyler Technologies to provide Permitting Software for the City.
Body
________________________________________________________________________________
Summary:
In 2014, a request for proposal process was completed to purchase the permitting software from Tyler Technologies.
This permitting software is state of the art technology, utilizing a web-based application that automates the regulatory processes to generate/submit, route, calculate fees, approve and schedule/track inspections including permitting workflow with the general public/contractors. This software solution allows the City to streamline manual processes and move towards a paperless plan submittal and review. This ensures the ability to conduct an electronic collaborative review and approval process across multiple City Departments. This also allows field inspectors to perform electronic field inspections utilizing mobile devices with the ability to save data in a disconnected
mode that minimizes rework/revisits to customer locations.
The City recommends renewal of contract with Tyler Technologies through April 30, 2022.
There are no Olathe vendors that provide permitting software.
