The pressures on planning teams
Planning departments across the UK are facing growing demands. Disconnected systems, complex regulations and rising public expectations make it harder than ever to deliver timely, transparent decisions. Planning teams are expected to manage thousands of applications, engage communities effectively and ensure compliance, all while working with limited resources.
At Resolution Data Management, we understand these challenges. Our intelligent, cloud‑based solutions connect every stage of the planning process, helping to reduce your backlogs, improve efficiency and deliver better planning outcomes for the communities you serve.
How we can help you
Managing planning applications involves more than just dealing with submissions and decisions. It needs transparent processes, accurate information and effective public engagement. From handling drawings to coordinating consultations and reporting, you need a system that keeps everything connected and accessible. Our software solutions for planning can help you with…
Integration with the Planning Portal
Applications submitted through the national Planning Portal flow seamlessly into your back‑office system, reducing duplication, ensuring applications are validated, and speeding up processing. Applicants benefit from a consistent, user‑friendly experience, while your team gains complete oversight from submission to decision.
Intelligent public and statutory consultation
Public engagement is central to planning. But managing consultations can be resource‑intensive. Our platform provides secure online consultation tools so you can record all correspondence against an application. Residents can access applications, submit comments and track progress, giving you a transparent, accessible process that builds trust.
Officer report creation
Performance monitoring is essential for planning teams. Our platform generates reports automatically, giving you and your team full oversight of workloads, processing times and consultation outcomes. This helps you demonstrate compliance, improve accountability and make better‑informed decisions.
Processing constraints
Applications must be checked against local constraints such as heritage, environmental or zoning restrictions. Our automated tools streamline this process, reducing manual workload and ensuring compliance from the outset.
