Helping the construction sector and local government thrive.
Injecting consistency, transparency, quality and efficiency into the consent process will help create high-quality buildings, support housing construction and drive social and economic outcomes for their communities.
With a simple platform used for all applications, designers and builders could see all their work across the country; and the status of any application, anywhere.
Ingesting complete and consistent data means councils know exactly what they’ll receive and can set their teams up to support the process more effectively. Effective resource allocation will mean timely inspections and reduced rework, helping to minimise costs and improve processing times.
It's all about helping the industry get started faster.
Visibility over the process at all times means you can keep clients up to date on progress, and prepare any RFI responses immediately, rather than waiting until the end of the assessment process. Ultimately, saving you and your clients, time.
Plan your projects and contractors, know what changes are acceptable, or not and know when inspections are scheduled.
Visibility of the overall process will show the pipeline of work ahead allowing you to meet your obligations for each application.
When applications meet requirements, designers and architects receive less queries from council and the path to approval is expedited.
With the right information provided at the outset, councils have greater confidence in the application and can work through validation faster.
Applications are constantly improved by re-using the data from prior approved applications and guiding applicants through the process. This ensures applicants know what’s required, the ultimate result; higher quality homes.
As applications are submitted, forms are pre-filled removing the need for applicants to type in data. And applicants are alerted to any incomplete information, eliminating delays from the very beginning.
Templates give architects the ability to re-use designs; ideal for developments with multiple dwellings.
Clear visibility of the time taken to complete each step in the process, by whom and when, highlights improvement opportunities. This data can help everyone in the consenting process improve their performance.
Representatives from 9 councils across New Zealand meet monthly as part of our Strategic Working Group. In addition, almost 25 councils have contributed feedback.
Ongoing consultation with applicants; from group home builders to boutique architects, reinforces their desire for a consistent system to manage consents.
A team of world-class developers and subject matter experts with decades of experience in Building, Processing & Inspections form the design and engineering team bringing Objective Build to life.
One view and a single process across councils. Applicants will be able to see any of their applications, with any council, within the one platform.
Specific algorithms, having learnt from hundreds of other applications, make sure applicants know up front what is required of them.
Re-use information by creating templates for specific application types. Copy from prior applications and reuse data to speed up the process.
Simple, easy to use dashboards for both individuals and organisations, allow you to see where all applications are in the process and more.
Minimise RFIs by getting high quality applications initially. And specialised tools designed to make it easier to manage information requests.
Specialist tools are built into the process to tag, annotate & merge documentations, making it easy for applicants to see exactly what documents Councils require.
Be notified when something changes or action is required, send information & be assured that council has received it. Know exactly where an application is at any time.
Re-use contact information, save contacts for later into a library, manage an entire organisation's access and consents easily.
