August 22, 2003 – The Building Construction
Authority of Singapore awards novaCITYNETS a US$2.6million (S$4.5million)
contract through an open tender, to develop and maintain an Integrated
Submission Processing System, also known as ISPS.
The main objective for this system would be to streamline and enable
the mission-critical processing and approval activities for the
management and staff in the Building Control Division of the Authority’s
organization. It also seeks to provide a common platform and a
set
of interlinked processes and procedures for users to receive, assess,
process and approve/disapprove submissions and applications, document
and file responses, as well as to correspond with one another with
external parties.
The development duration for this Project will be about 15 months
with maintenance for a period of 6 years, where application software
and services constitute over 85% of the project value. This project
will include PAVO, a collaborative framework product for e-Government
solution, deployed over J2EE infrastructure, and it will incorporate
one of OCTANS module for Building Control function.
Briefly, ISPS will be a web-based system that will integrate coherently
into the existing Authority’s CORENET system, which will provide
inputs to be processed downstream. Apart from facilitating communication
within the Authority and external parties for services notices,
permits, licenses and other official documents and correspondences,
it will automate conversion of Lotus Notes emails and Microsoft
Office Documents into a standardized platform for archival and retrieval.
The authority will have online abilities to receive, index, assign
and re-assign users for operational task, view, review, search and
retrieval, archival and sharing of details in applications and submission.
The system will eventually have a common working platform to facilitate
the receipt, routing, processing, approving and disapproval of applications,
as well as preparations and documentations of the responses. The
system initially is expected to handle up to 6000 electronics submissions
per month, at a rate of one electronic submission every 3 minutes.
The main group of users for this system includes the management
and official personals of the Building and Construction Authority,
as well as qualified practitioner in the land and building industry.
