Objective says its solution will enable Council-wide access to all information regardless of physical location, improve the ability to collaborate across three customer service centres and multiple depots, standardise and streamline business processes, improve information practices of the Council, and provide comprehensive search functionality and compliance with record keeping standards.

Objective CEO, Tony Walls describes the contract with Moreton Bay Council as a “significant opportunity” which, he says “validates our commitment to this market, as evidenced by our investment in local government specific business applications - Objective committees, systems integration, and the recent acquisition of Limehouse Software, a specialised local government provider.”

Rauber says Objective will integrate with Pathway, the Council’s authoritative source for managing people, property and ratings.

“The type of documents stored in Pathway includes development applications and approvals, building and plumbing applications, rates notices and correspondence with customers regarding licensing or animals.
 
“Council is committed to ensuring a timely response to community requests and enquiries. Having a consolidated view of documents related to a person or property – that can be viewed or retrieved by anyone across the business at any time – will help streamline processes and reduce the risk of ‘information silos’.”
