Benefits of Code Enforcement Software
-
Time Savings
- Automated inspection reminders – The NovoGov Work Flow system can be used to automatically email code enforcement officers when re-inspections are due. Alternatively, this can be viewed on a Calendar OR with a list of re-inspections sorted by Due Date. This not only ensures that inspections do not fall through the cracks, but it also eliminates the time manually scheduling inspections.
- Auto generated mail merge letters – No more manual typing of letters. NovoGov provides a way for Code Enforcement Officers to quickly associate Parcel information and Code/Ordinance information with the code enforcement record. The NovoGov Custom Form Button and Custom Reporting features can be used to setup a 1 click mail merge letter with logo/seal, address information, compliance requirement dates, picture and the city ordinances that were violated.
-
Convenience
- GIS/Mapping Integration – Plan routes for the day with ease.
- Inspections from your Phone – Use your SmartPhone or Tablet to take inspections. No need for paper and updating records back at the office.
- Pictures automatically associate with the Violation – Take photos and add them directly to the violation record (with date/time stamp). This eliminates the need to upload and sort through a bunch of images at the end of the day. Pictures provide proof.
- Mobile printer support of violation letters – Use a mobile printer to print violation letters on-site and leave them in a door hanger. Alternatively, letters can be conveniently printed in batch back at the office if you desire to mail them. This not only saves time, but will hopefully resolve the violation faster since the resident/owner is notified quickly.
-
Documentation Trial
- Easy logging of activities (i.e. inspections, letter delivered, etc.) – NovoGov automatically sets the add date, added by person, modified date, modified by person as non-editable and reportable fields. Whenever you do something with a violation record, it supports your case if this is logged in the system.
- 1 Click Report of all activities performed (including date/times of pictures taken) – This helps you demonstrate your efforts to gain compliance and it provides a great record if it has to go to court.
- Automatic Activity Log of all changes to a record along with date/time stamp and who made the change – this provides further proof of every change.

Code Enforcement Management Software
Our Code Enforcement Management Software allows for multiple departments to work together to schedule and track inspections right when they are made apparent. Pictures of the problem can be attached using a mobile device and the GPS location can be set for the record. This not only provides a much clearer understanding of the situation but allows the violation/complaint to be seen on a map. Using the inputted data, reports can generate Code Violation letters, with just a click of a button. NovoGov’s Citizen Request Management software provides residents with easy access to submit new issues they see, increasing community satisfaction and ultimately providing a better relationship between the citizens and the local government.
NovoGov Code Enforcement Software
As part of our adaptable, scalable NovoGov Community Development Software the web and mobile code enforcement features will simplify how your municipality manages its workflow. Every department has its own needs, yet NovoGov is so highly flexible that it can meet those requirements within one system, allowing different departments to communicate to solve problems at a rapid pace.
Many cities and counties still rely on paper and spreadsheets for reporting, leaving the potential for misplacing or misinterpreting vital information. Novo Solutions’ pays close attention to the needs of these community services. NovoGov was created to help you in the transition from inefficient paper-based methods to efficient SmartPhone and Tablet based methods of capturing and sharing information in real-time while in the field.
Your city’s Code Enforcement department can benefit greatly with the ability to give staff and citizens around-the-clock access to the information they need. It is an understatement that smaller local governments have a lot on their plates at any given time. The implementation of the NovoGov system can offer great relief.
