The majority of Local Councils across Australia and New Zealand have adopted a "best of breed" approach to corporate software solutions. In many instances, Councils use between 8 and 10 core software packages to manage their day-to-day business operations. 

These solutions generally manage rating, property, people, planning, applications, registers as well as documents, assets, GIS and finance and many more Local Government specific business processes.

Often the solutions hold related pieces of information that have no consistent connection or integration; creating a problem to the user when trying to provide a complete picture or statistical information.

REPORT from ICON solves this reporting problem. REPORT negates the need to build expensive data integration, data warehouses or extract data to third party reporting tools. Dashboard can be easily created giving all Council employees access to corresponding data across multiple systems.

REPORT provides the following benefits:

• Data can be presented from ALL Local Government software solutions
• Access to data is immediate, accurate and secure
• Reports can incorporate multiple data sources
• Users can create and manage favourite reports
• Dashboards and statistics come as standard
