Paladin Data Systems Announces Ferndale, Washington As Newest SMARTGov Customer
Poulsbo, WA (PRWEB) March 31, 2014 -- Paladin Data Systems Corporation announced the City of Ferndale, Washington today as its newest customer for its SMARTGov software solution, Paladin’s community development software that manages the full lifecycle of any permit, inspection, license, or code enforcement action for jurisdictions.
Paladin will implement its cloud based technology at City of Ferndale to track all aspects of zoning and codes including permit issuance, inspections, and code enforcement, and a public portal for self-service public access. The city will be transitioning from Black Bear’s PTWin software to the cloud based features of SMARTGov.
“We are excited to add the City of Ferndale to our growing list of SMARTGov customers. Ferndale is upgrading from PTWin software which includes comprehensive migration of all of their legacy data into SMARTGov for free. This is a great partnership between Paladin and the City as we will deploy and support SMARTGov via our cost-effective cloud deployment model. We anticipate a smooth transition and a long term relationship with Ferndale as SMARTGov offers many additional features available to Ferndale for future deployment,” said Jon Byrd, Paladin Sales Executive.
The City of Ferndale represents yet another former Black Bear PTWin to convert to SMARTGov. Paladin will implement its cloud based technology at Ferndale to track all aspects of zoning and codes including permit issuance, inspections, code enforcement, and a public portal for self-service public access. SMARTGov's online Public Portal helps jurisdictions reduce front counter as a full-featured extension of the jurisdiction's front counter services which enables the public to 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.
“The City of Ferndale is excited to adopt SMARTGov as an important piece of our permit review process, known locally as the fastest review process in Northwest Washington. The City’s existing permit tracking software (PTWin) is at the end of its useful life, and SmartGov’s software suite provides us with the ability to more-efficiently review permits while providing our customers and the general public with the ability to observe and monitor our review processes. We need to keep ahead of our competition, and Paladin will help us do that,” said Jori Burnett, Community Development Director.
