      Save time by duplicating existing permits in ConstructionOnline™

      BACKGROUND

      Construction companies frequently manage projects with recurring permit requirements. Manually entering these similar or recurring permits is time-consuming and prone to errors, hindering efficiency and increasing project risk. ConstructionOnline addresses this challenge by enabling users to duplicate existing permits with just a few clicks. This functionality significantly streamlines the permit process, reduces data entry, and ensures consistency while boosting productivity and minimizing potential delays.  

      ⚠️ Important: Archived permits cannot be duplicated.
