The problem
Plans in one window. Standard comments in another. Notes in an email. Even without paper, reviewers spend time moving information between tools to complete a single review.
Building, fire, zoning, and engineering leave comments in different places. Someone has to chase them down, reconcile the feedback, and answer the next status call.
A revised plan arrives, but what actually changed? Reviewers match sheets, compare versions, and check old comments to work out what still needs attention.
What we do
1INTAKE
Whether applicants submit plans through our portal or your permitting system, we route plans to the right reviewers based on your team’s rules. Review starts fast, and statuses are visible at every stage so you know exactly where each plan set stands.

2REVIEW
Building, fire, zoning, and engineering can work on the same plan at the same time. Comments are visible across disciplines, markups stay organized, and version history tracks changes across resubmissions. No printing or reconciling four sets of notes by hand.

3RESPONSE
Multi-discipline feedback comes together in one comment report, without copying and pasting from four sources. When applicants resubmit, sheet matching and comparison help reviewers see what changed without starting from scratch.

4INTEGRATE
With 8 permit solution partners and a flexible API, e‑PlanSoft integrates cleanly with your permitting system and other tools.
