Permits and Licensing Software

Highways Licensing and Permits Software

StarGo is the complete cloud-based end-to-end software application for managing highways licences and permits e.g. skips, street cafés, TTROs, scaffolding, Section 50s, A-boards, hoarding, cranes, smoking enclosures, and materials on the highway.

The StarGo solution consists of a smartphone-enabled portal where applicants can apply for and renew licences, a comprehensive back-office to manage the application process and a smartphone enforcement app for Highways Inspectors to check the validity of licences in the field and issue an FPN (Fixed Penalty Notice) where necessary.

Applicants can pay for their licences online in advance, negating the need to send invoices or wait for cheque payments to be cleared before approving and issuing a licence.

If required StarGo can integrate with the DfT StreetManager system via API. StreetManager will plot the activity on a map displaying the following information from StarGo:

• Licence number from StarGo
• Activity type g. Skip
• Start and end dates
