1. How can ProjectDox help me with my move to a paperless environment?

ProjectDox is a web-based plan check and review solution. When a permit request is submitted, a project is created for the citizens, they are then invited to the project via email and instructed to upload their electronic CAD files. Once uploaded, the review and approval process begins. After approval, the plans can be printed over the web or downloaded by the citizen. This process from start to finish is completely paperless.

ProjectDox can provide a complete electronic plan check solution as a standalone product or integrated with an electronic permit application.
