What it is

One portal for the revenue side of city hall.

Our software runs in the browser — business licensing, utility billing, permitting, cashiering and enforcement, each a focused product your staff can adopt on its own. Residents meet them all in one place: the OneStop portal, where they apply, renew, look up and pay online across every program, and payments taken at the counter, over the phone or on the web post to the right account.

Every deployment is configured to your ordinances, your rate structures and your general ledger, and runs where you want it — fully cloud hosted on Azure or AWS, or on your own servers. Resident-facing portals are built to WCAG 2.1 Level AA, and the people who designed the software are the people who answer your calls.

Why agencies choose PSI

01

Interfaces in days, not months

GL uploads, real-time AR and utility balance lookups, false alarm imports from RIMS and Tiburon — we build to what you already run.

02

Pay by counter, phone or web

PaymentCentral™ takes over-the-counter payments on EMV chip readers and contactless tap-to-pay, and the same ledger accepts IVR, lockbox, mail and online payments.

03

WCAG 2.1 AA resident portals

Every public-facing portal we ship — renewals, applications, lookups and bill pay — is built and tested to WCAG 2.1 Level AA, so your ADA obligations are met at the front door.

04

Full cloud hosting on Azure or AWS

Run it in our managed cloud on Microsoft Azure or AWS, in your own tenant, or on your servers — backups, patching and failover handled either way.

05

Configured, not compromised

Options and parameters are designed into the system so it conforms to your ordinances instead of the other way around.

06

Support from the authors

Phone, email and desktop sharing — answered by the people who wrote the code.

Frequently asked

Do you host, or does it run on our servers?

Either. We offer full cloud hosting on Microsoft Azure or AWS — managed by us, with backups, patching, monitoring and failover included — or deployment into your own Azure/AWS tenant or on-premises servers. Each client gets a separate database and site, with access limited to the users and field agents you authorize.

Are your resident portals accessible?

Yes. Public-facing portals are built and tested against WCAG 2.1 Level AA — keyboard operation, screen-reader labelling, visible focus, contrast and resizable text — and we will provide an accessibility conformance report for procurement.

Can residents renew and pay online?

Yes. Utility bills, business license renewals, pet license renewals, citations, occupancy tax and false alarm permit renewals can all be filed and paid over the web or online.

Will it talk to our general ledger?

Every program interfaces with general ledger software, and we regularly interface with CRW building permits, Eden AR and UB, and police systems for false alarm imports.

How long does implementation take?

It depends on the modules and the conversion, but most third-party interfaces are up in days rather than weeks. Scope and schedule are set before a contract is signed.

What does support cost after year one?

Annual support includes the tech line, remote sessions and coordinated regular updates — enhancements reach existing clients at no extra charge.

Can the software be customized for us?

Yes. Where a specific need falls outside the configuration options, we write the modification at a reasonable cost — custom programming has been our practice since 1979.
