Problem
Government agencies processing permits, licenses, and other applications face a manual, time-intensive review workflow. Staff must screen every document individually, resulting in inconsistent review standards, hours spent on incomplete applications, and delayed decisions for citizens and businesses.
Solution
Cembla provides an intelligent examination platform that automates application intake, completeness checks, and compliance reviews for local, state, and federal governments. Applications are submitted through an existing system or Cembla's customer-facing portal, and the platform automatically runs completeness verification and compliance evaluations on the submittals. Staff then review pre-validated applications with flagged issues, enabling rapid and consistent decisions. The platform reports a 75% reduction in processing time, a 90% reduction in incomplete and non-compliant submittals, and up to 3x increased staff productivity.
Target Audience
Primary customers are building and planning departments, IT and digital services teams, and other agencies within local, state, and federal governments that process applications, permits, and licenses.
