Case Study: City of Rochester, Minnesota achieves faster plan review turnaround with e-PlanSoft REVIEW

Plan review between departments is consolidated for better efficiency

The City of Rochester, Minnesota, faced an inefficient building permit process where applicants were required to manually submit and circulate multiple sets of physical plan drawings across different departments for review. This created a cumbersome process, as staff then had to manually consolidate all comments onto a single plan.

e-PlanSoft implemented its eplansoft REVIEW™ software to create a centralized online hub for the building permit process. This solution eliminated the manual circulation of plans and will connect multiple departments, including fire, planning, and building & safety. The city anticipates a faster plan review turnaround time, an end to manual comment consolidation, and benefits for 30 users across its departments.
