Release Broadens Cityworks Capabilities Encompassing Permits, Licensing, and Land

July 13, 2010 -- San Diego, CA — Azteca Systems, Inc., the leading provider of GIS-centric management solutions, announced today the release of Cityworks Server PLL (Permits, Licensing, and Land), launching an exciting new array of solutions to automate licensing, permit, case, and asset management for public works, utilities, and government agencies of all sizes. This release marks a new and broadened Cityworks product direction that includes the entire suite of GIS-centric management tools.

Cityworks Server PLL is a community development software application and automated permitting program streamlining permitting and land development processes. Built on ArcGIS, Cityworks Server PLL has the same easy-to-use interface as Cityworks Server MMS and is a fully integrated extension of GIS. The product allows agencies to track permits, applications, and code enforcement cases from beginning to end. Cityworks Server PLL is fully integrated with Cityworks Server MMS allowing permits and cases to be linked to work orders and service requests.

Cityworks Server PLL streamlines and automates the permit process:
• Application
• Plan review(s)
• Fee calculations and payments
• Workflow and tasks
• Inspections
• Management signoff and tracking

Developed in Microsoft .NET and ESRI’s leading ArcGIS technologies, Cityworks Server PLL is the only GIS-centric solution for permitting, business licensing, code enforcement, and land management. A web-based, enterprise application, Cityworks Server PLL quickly and easily enables your entire staff with instant data access, quality assurance, status tracking, and complete parcel information taking operational efficiency to a new, visual level.

“The great thing about Cityworks PLL is that it is a web-based application so our staff can run it whether working at their desk or in the field,” states Ken Cushing, Programming Supervisor at West Valley City, Utah - Cityworks PLL users. “It fits exactly what we were looking for in a permitting application and more. Zoning and Planning uses it for all their permits, Billing Inspections uses it for all permits and inspections, Code Enforcement uses it for all of their cases, and all violation notices and courtesy notices are kept track of in Cityworks. In addition, with Cityworks PLL our building inspectors can now add corrections to a building permit inspection while in the field and simply go ahead and print out an inspection ticket to a contractor showing all the things needing to be fixed before the next visit or whether they need to call for a re-inspection. The amazing thing about Cityworks is that it is set up so that it can be used for many different things. It seems like every time we turn around we are finding another way a division can use Cityworks.”
“The introduction of Cityworks Server PLL is an exciting addition to the Cityworks suite of products and truly marks a new area of Cityworks management software,” states Brian Haslam, President of Azteca Systems. “Cityworks Server PLL is much more than permit management program for building departments as it streamlines community development and regulation processes across local government. PLL broadens the capabilities of Cityworks and solidifies its presence as the most complete management software on the market.”
