SUBJECT:
Approve accepting proposal and entering into a contract with SunGard Public Sector LLC to purchase Projectdox in the amount of $227,950, which will allow the Building Department to proceed with on-line plan submittals.
SUMMARY:
Since the Building Department is tasked as the overseer of the permitting process in the City of Fort Pierce, we are always seeking ways to be more efficient in the way the city handles and processes plans submitted for building permits. It is the goal of each department to continue to provide excellent customer service in a timely manner. It is also a goal of the department to develop and use “green” technologies in order to be environmentally consciousness. Also recent Florida State Statute amendments are requiring that local enforcement agencies have the capability to accept applications electronically. Projectdox is the key to meeting these goals.
