The City of Stanwood is actively seeking qualified vendors to provide an AI-powered permit review software system aimed at enhancing the efficiency and accuracy of the City's development review process. The primary goals of implementing this technology are to significantly reduce permit turnaround times by automating routine and repetitive tasks—such as code compliance checks —while also minimizing human error and addressing permit backlogs. Importantly, the City views this software as a support tool to augment, not replace, the expertise of its professional staff.
The selected system will serve as a resource for plan reviewers—helping them identify potential issues more quickly and accurately—allowing staff to focus on higher-level planning considerations, nuanced code interpretations, and complex project evaluations. The ideal solution will deliver comprehensive review capabilities across building, zoning, and engineering codes, integrating seamlessly into Stanwood’s existing permit review workflows while improving overall customer service and project transparency.
