Permits, code enforcement, rentals, land development, mapping, and your public portal — all tied to a single record for every property. One platform, built the way Pennsylvania local government actually works.
Permits in one program. Code cases in another. Rentals on a spreadsheet. Maps only the engineering firm can open. Property files in cabinets — or scanned into a system that doesn’t talk to anything else.
So a simple question — what’s the full story on this property? — takes five logins and three phone calls.
CMIS answers it in one.
The idea behind CMIS
CMIS is parcel-centric. Every permit, inspection, violation, rental, application, document, and map layer attaches to the property itself. Pull up an address and you see its entire history across the whole township — not a piece of it.
Everything your township does, in one place
Each one works on its own and connects to all the others through the property record. Turn on what you need now; add the rest when you’re ready.
From application to final inspection — intake, review, fees, and scheduling, all on the record.
Learn more →Track a violation from first notice to resolution, with photos and generated notices on the parcel.
Learn more →Every rental unit and business registered, inspected, and renewed — with online renewals.
Learn more →SALDO, subdivision, zoning hearings, and conditional uses — tracked the way the PA MPC lays them out.
Learn more →Your records live on the property, not in a separate archive. Move off your old document archive and bring everything in.
Learn more →A living map of your township — managed and hosted by us. No GIS license fees, no GIS tech to hire.
Learn more →Residents apply, upload, and pay online around the clock — and it posts straight back to CMIS.
Learn more →Fees and payments flow to the finance system you already run.

Most municipal software makes you change how you work to fit the software. CMIS is configured to your codes, your fee schedules, and the way your departments actually route a file — because it was built alongside the people who use it, request by request, for 30 years.
When your township needs something no off-the-shelf product offers, you’re talking to the people who build the system — not filing a ticket and waiting.
Fewer vendors. Fewer logins. Lower total cost.
The map, the document system, and every module come built in — so you’re not stacking separate licenses and per-seat fees from four different vendors just to see the full picture of a property.
Managed GIS is part of CMIS — no GIS license fees and no GIS technician to hire on top.
Native document management on the record — no separate archive system to license and reconcile.
Add every clerk, inspector, and department head. The price never changes with headcount.
One system to learn and one partner to call — instead of four products stitched together.
Tell us your biggest headache and we’ll show you how one record handles it. A real walkthrough — not a canned sales call.
