POULSBO, Wash., June 30, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Paladin Data Systems Corporation is pleased to announce that the Town of Collierville, Tennessee, is its newest customer for SMARTGov, Paladin's community development software that manages the full lifecycle of permits, inspections, licenses, and code enforcement actions for jurisdictions.
Paladin will implement its cloud-based technology at Collierville to track all aspects of zoning and codes including permit issuance, inspections, and code enforcement, and all recurring licenses. Collierville will also deploy SMARTGov's online Public Portal, which will give citizens visibility into the permitting and code enforcement processes of the city.
"The Town of Collierville is looking forward to working with Paladin Data Systems to streamline our permitting process through the implementation of SMARTGov permitting software. SMARTGov provides a number of features the Town looks forward to utilizing including a Public Portal that will enable citizens to apply for permits online and mobile devices that will enable our field staff to quickly process inspections," said Tim Pendleton, Town of Collierville Building Official.
Paladin's SMARTGov Community Development software will be replacing the town's Local Government LGC (Building) permits software, a Microsoft Access "Run-Time" application. The current system is limited with no mobile device access and no online payments. Current inspection requests must be done via telephone and a paper inspection tag is generated and then entered into a Microsoft SQL server database prior to the end of business each day.
"We are excited to be working with the Town of Collierville to implement SMARTGov for tracking and managing all aspects of permitting and inspections. The Town will benefit from SMARTGov's new mobile technology that represents the best and most innovative mobile tools on the market and is scheduled to release later this year," said Jeff Pavey, SMARTGov Sales Executive.
As noted above, Collierville will deploy SMARTGov's online Public Portal, which is a significant addition to the city's ability to serve the public, acting as a full-featured extension of its front counter services. Using the portal, the public can research local building trends, apply for a permit, view maps, pay fees, submit digital architectural drawings, request inspections, and even review public notice postings in a 24/7, self-help environment.
Collierville is a town in Shelby County, Tennessee, and a suburb located in the Memphis metropolitan area. The town has a total area of 24.6 square miles and a population of nearly 44,000.
