In brief

Lighter workload, better service

Municipalities, water boards and other organisations spend a great deal of time answering questions about permits, notifications and local regulations. Requests come in through different channels and are often incomplete, which means extra contact and manual processing. 

With Decentraal Loket, residents and businesses find the right information faster and submit their requests digitally. This reduces the number of enquiries, and organisations receive more complete requests that can be handled more quickly. 

The result: a lighter workload for permit officers and better service for residents and businesses. Organisations receive more complete requests and can process them faster. 

Features

Everything for permit checks and digital applications in a single point of access

Manage question trees, location criteria and submission requirements based on local policy and regulations. 

Residents and businesses can see which rules apply and whether they need a permit or notification. They are only shown questions that are relevant to their situation. 

Permit applications and notifications are submitted digitally, in full and in a uniform format, through one central environment. 

The right rules, questions and obligations are shown automatically based on location and activity. 

Applications and notifications are automatically routed to the right VTH or case management system and the right department.
