Designed to help local authorities meet the requirements of the Flood Water Management Act of 2010

The Land Drainage module was originally written to meet the needs of the sustainable drainage system (SuDS) approval process with the ability to manage ordinary water course consenting. Although the SuDS approval process was abandoned in England in favour of a statutory consultation role for LLFA the module persisted for OWC, investigation, enquiries and enforcement. The module is now in use for SuDS in Wales.

Features Include:

  • Fully Integrated Document Management System
  • Fully Integrated GIS Solution
  • Alert and Reminder capability to ensure deadlines are not missed
  • Customisable workflow capabilities to suit working practices however large or small

Case Management

The module supports every facet of the consenting process whilst lending itself to flood investigations and general case load activities. With GIS support, document management, workflow and the other MasterGov standard features the solution is a one stop shop for LLFA activities outside of consultation response.

The module provides the following features:

  • Automatic date calculation
  • In-built validation checklist with auto population from items linked to case type
  • Integrated address book for applicant and agent
  • Embedded plan management with supersede function
  • Consultee capability
  • Workflow functionality specific to case type
  • Rainfall event selection or creation including rainfall in mm and rainfall return period
  • Time sheet recording
  • Discharge of condition ability on parent record
  • Built-in document management
  • GIS integration with constraint pull back

Core Features

MasterGov is packed with common features available to all modules

Workflow

The MasterGov suite contains an integrated workflow system. This task-based system allows the Council to define workflow processes for each module and have the system automatically apply them as the case progresses.

Notifications

MasterGov is supplied with Alert and Reminder capability, allowing custom alerts / reminders to be sent to specific officers to alert them of a forthcoming deadline.

Full GIS Solutions

MasterGov is supplied with QGIS GIS Solution, providing you with all the tools required for spatial data capture, analysis and constraint checking.

Access Control

DEF recommend using an Active Directory group which is added to the SQL Server database to provide system access. In doing so the DBA does not have to add individual users to the database server. Instead individual users will be added to the AD group. 

Document Management

MasterGov has its own Document Management System for storing letters, documents, certificates, emails and photographs relating to records stored in the database.

Reporting

MasterGov takes advantage of Microsoft's SSRS Reporting functionality to allow limitless Reports and Dashboards to be created across all modules within the MasterGov suite. Management dashboards and automated report delivery included as standard.
