Buckeye, Arizona, Goes Live with InterLocking’s Permitting-in-a-Box

Seattle, WA, December 21, 2005 – InterLocking Software announced today that Buckeye, Arizona, has successfully implemented the company’s Permitting-in-a-Box all-in-one system, replacing the town’s existing permit processing system. The town is now using Permitting-in-a-Box to manage the review and approval of all building permit activity. Buckeye has also chosen to adopt InterLocking’s portable field inspection device, which enables building and compliance inspectors to access and enter information into the system directly from field computers; as well as the public Web portal component, giving members of the public the ability to view up-to-date status information on their applications.

"Buckeye is on the verge of explosive growth, and our original, permitting system was no longer sufficient," said Dee Hathaway, IT director for the town of Buckeye. "We originally chose InterLocking’s Permitting-in-a-Box system because it offered all the functionality we were looking for at an exceptional price. Now that we’re up and running, we’re looking forward to a more efficient permitting approval process."

Permitting-in-a-Box is a relatively new offering from InterLocking Software. It provides the same features and functionality as the company’s enterprise-level Permitting system but is designed to meet the needs of smaller jurisdictions, such as Buckeye, which are experiencing a surge in growth and require an effective permit processing system to be put in place immediately and cost-effectively. Permitting-in-a-Box includes all the necessary computer hardware required to run the application, and each Permitting-in-a-Box system is custom configured for the client before being implemented at the client site, so cities and counties can get up and running very quickly.
