Arun District Council uses the TerraQuest PAVS to validate Householder and Advertisement Consents. We treat the service as an extension to our own validation team and it provides us with greater resilience especially during busy periods. The staff are very approachable, and we have been pleased with the service that has been provided to date.

Planning Application Validation Service (PAVS)  

PAVS helps local planning authorities to successfully handle their increased workload, clear application backlogs and meet service level commitments by validating all types of electronic and paper planning applications.

The service checks planning applications against national and local planning policies and directly uploads them into the local authority back office system.

An application can be received and validated on a case officers worklist within just 24 to 48 hours.
