Practical Plus for Local Government

An enterprise administrative and operations software solution customised for smaller councils

Smaller Councils have a diverse set of tasks to manage while providing day to day services to their citizens. Practical Plus supports the administrative operations of the local councils.  Starting with effective data capture, Practical Plus is a one stop portal for staff workflow and customer service delivery needs.

With more than 20 modules designed specifically for the finance, administration and technical needs of the council, and with lower implementation and training requirements than most other solutions, Practical Plus is the ideal solution for many councils due to its low fixed costs.
