Suprata for regional councils and planning organizations

Serve every member town without a spreadsheet per program

Regional councils pass money through to partners, write plans with dozens of communities and run shared services that small towns cannot run alone. Suprata gives each partner its own sign-in, each plan its own public page and each member town its own permit program in one system.

What a normal week looks like without the right system

We hear these from regional councils and planning organizations all the time. Here is what Suprata does about each one.

We fund 500 organizations, and every year-end report comes in a different format with a budget that does not match the award.

Suprata Reporting gives every organization one smart form, and a report cannot be submitted until the budget matches the award.

Our partners send reimbursement requests by email, and I cannot tell how much match each one has raised.

Suprata Grants tracks each project's budget, spending, cash and in-kind match, and every reimbursement request in one place.

The long-range transportation plan gets comments by mail, email and sticky notes on a map at the open house.

Suprata Engage collects surveys, map pins and formal comments in one log, and AI groups them into themes for staff to review.

Our small towns all want online permits, and none of them can afford their own system.

Suprata Permits can serve several member towns side by side in one system.

Questions we hear

Straight answers

Asked by regional councils and planning organizations before they switch.

From the help center

Can partners paste their budget from Excel?

Yes. The spreadsheet-style budget grid takes rows pasted straight from Excel and matches them to budget categories.

Can one system serve several towns?

Yes. Suprata Permits can run several programs or several member towns side by side.

Can consultants work on our plan without seeing resident contact details?

Yes. In Suprata Engage a consultant can be invited to one project, and residents' contact details stay hidden from them.

Does a new fiscal year mean rebuilding everything?

No. In Suprata Reporting each new fiscal year rolls forward from the last, with history kept linked.
