16-April-2009 - PSSLive is launched for Parish and Town Councils

Working in partnership with the SLCC, Public Sector Software launches PSSLive at the Larger Councils' Conference in Nottingham. Now available for the first time to Parish and Town Councils, PSSLive promises to change the way assets are managed at Parish and Town Council level.

“The system provides a paperless record of all inspections carried out, It is a great asset management tool that assists with the production of planned maintenance schedules and much more. There is a good audit trail which is required should a claim for injury arise.”

Peter Fraser, Clerk, Rushden Town Council

“This has really helped in managing beach car parks, local halls, recreation facilities and land. I use only a small fraction of the features available but for a clerk whose needs are to handle variety, rather than quantity of the same thing, it simplifies so much.”

David Menday, Clerk, St Davids City Council

“At Lewes District Council, we have recently started using StaySafe for logging all of our tree stock. Our inspectors using the PDAs carry out inspections of the trees to ensure that they are healthy and safe. Any arboriculture work required on the tree will be 'tasked' at the same time.
We have found the software to be very user friendly; and it's always good to know that there is a fast response from PSS if we need a helping hand!”

Andy Frost, Park Manager, Lewes District Council

“With so many play areas and records that have to be kept for over 20 years PlaySafe has saved paper, storage and time required to search for records. Not only that, it has made staff accountable and the play areas safer and more attractive place to be. A versatile tool that can be used by all personnel (from cleansing staff to RPII inspectors) at a level they are comfortable with which produces vital information for the operation of our 500 play sites, an important part of our landscape accountability and input in to the Green Flag Scheme.”

Philip Snell, Milton Keynes

“Using Public Sector's Software we successfully and paperlessly manage the inspection and reporting on a wide range of Council assets, including Play areas, Housing, Parks and Open Spaces, Trees, School Sites, Cemeteries and Health and Safety site issues and our PAT Electrical Tests.”

John Hopkins, Swansea City & Council
