Bringing clarity to the building consent and inspections process at Waitomo District Council

Real-time visibility ensures that everyone involved with a consent are always kept in the loop, for better collaboration.

Waitomo District Council has transformed building compliance with Objective Build, turning inspections from a perceived hurdle into a seamless experience.

Objective Build's Applicant portal allows builders to manage consents across multiple councils with a single login, offering real-time updates that keeps everyone informed and aligned. For site inspections, having reliable, instant access to key documents using the Objective Build Inspections App allows Waitomo District Council to work flexibly and efficiently. 

Having clear communication and visibility of a consent's status across the Objective Build platform has streamlined processes, reduced delays, and built trust between council and community. 

The result is a collaborative, transparent approach that delivers safer, compliant buildings for the Waitomo district.

Being able to communicate with the designer, the builder, the owner, through the process, and have them see what's required, keep the communication clear and open, makes it a lot easier for us to work with customers, giving them what they need as they work through and understand what's going on.
