Pre-submission screening for development applications

Pass your development submission the first time

SmartCheck checks your documents, validates requirements and calculates fees before your application reaches the local authority (PBT) One Stop Centre, so it does not bounce back.

✓ Architect-led ✓ Built on Act 172 & 133 and the OSC process ✓ In pilot with local authorities
SmartCheck pre-submission screening

The problem

Every application is stuck at the same gate

Incomplete submissions

Applications reach the OSC missing documents and get bounced back before review.

Rejections and resubmissions

Each revision cycle adds weeks of delay and holding cost.

Fee-calculation errors

Charges computed by hand lead to disputes and rework.

Long approvals

Building plan approval can take months after planning permission.

Current submission cycle

The fix

Fix it before it reaches the counter

Same submission, two paths. Screening upfront turns a months-long loop into one clean first submission.

Fixed after rejection Without SmartCheck

Submit to the PBT
Rejected: missing or non-compliant
Revise and recalculate fees
Resubmit, and wait again

↻ Weeks of delay, repeated
