Customer survey
From 2022, an annual customer survey is being undertaken to explore the overall level of customer satisfaction with the ePlanning system.
The inaugural Customer Survey was conducted by an external, independent professional market research company. 1500 users of the PlanSA system provided feedback, including council staff, planning and buildings professionals, and community members. Some of the top line results are outlined below.
Following a detailed analysis of the feedback, PlanSA has published an Action Plan, outlining how it will improve the system and processes within it. Each action also has an approximate timeline for implementation.
