Introduction

Agile Applications Limited comprises sets of modules that are configured to provide an integrated system for Land, Property and Regulatory Services Management.

We are experienced in interfacing our core solutions to a wide range of third-party systems including Corporate Finance, Corporate and Departmental EDMS, Enterprise GIS and Gazetteers.

Our overall design objective is to deliver intuitive and easy to use software that provides a flexible route for Local Authorities to maintain the deliverables they are required to provide by Government and that citizens expect whilst reducing costs.

Upgraded in 2026, APAS 82.2 brings several significant new features benefiting all customers, as well as enhancements to existing functionality across all modules. This document provides the release notes for APAS 82.2 and is not intended as a Training Manual but just to make Users aware of the changes. Workshops or Refresher Training can be arranged on request and will aid the User more than these notes.

Please note, there is a chargeable feature available that auto redacts and summarises comments and that there are changes visible in this release to facilitate this. Please contact your account manager to discuss further if interested.
