Objective launches purpose-built planning platform at PIA Congress 2025
Objective Build, now ready for Australian councils, is announced Capitalises on the Objective Build success in New Zealand Designed for Aussie planners from the ground up to help tackle the housing crisis DARWIN, Australia, May 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Objective Corporation (ASX: OCL) today officially announced Objective Build, a transformative planning and development approvals platform designed specifically for local government in Australia. The announcement was made live from the Planning Institute of Australia (PIA) Congress 2025 in Darwin, where Objective is appearing as Platinum Sponsor. Regionalised for Australian councils, Objective Build is already generating strong interest among planners, CIOs, and local government leaders attending the event. "The feedback we've had this morning has been exceptional," said Andrea Breen, VP of Local Government Solutions at Objective. "Planners are excited to see a platform that finally reflects the realities of their day-to-day work—fast, fit-for-purpose, and designed with them at the centre." Built for Planning, Not Repurposed for It Objective Build replaces fragmented systems, spreadsheets, and retrofitted ERPs with a purpose-built platform that simplifies development assessment, accelerates approvals, and restores confidence in the process—for councils, applicants, and communities. Key features include: Smart workflow automation for faster approvals and fewer delays. AI-powered context to surface relevant past decisions and increase consistency. End-to-end compliance visibility with integration to the NSW Planning Portal. Real-time dashboards for team leaders and executives. "Planning teams across Australia are under pressure to do more with less," said Breen. "Objective Build helps planners shift their focus from repetitive admin to real planning—making confident, high-quality decisions that shape stronger communities." AI That Assists, Not Replaces At the heart of Objective Build is council-ready AI that enhances human judgment. The platform supports planners by generating letters, summarising submissions, and surfacing similar DAs—all while leaving every final decision in the hands of a qualified professional. "It's not about automating decisions—it's about empowering planners," said Breen. "Objective Build acts like a digital planning assistant, not a replacement." Built for Australian Councils—With Local Nuance, National Impact Objective Build isn't just another software solution—it's a planning transformation platform created specifically for local government in Australia. Councils today are being asked to do more with less: Approve more housing, faster. Stay compliant with changing regulations. Earn back trust from increasingly frustrated communities. Attract and retain skilled planners in a competitive market. But many councils are still relying on repurposed ERP systems, spreadsheets, and ageing bespoke tools that come up short as they were never designed for planning in the first place. Objective Build changes that. Built with and for Australian planning teams. Ready-to-deploy modules for NSW, with configurations underway for Victoria, Queensland, and other states. Seamlessly integrates with finance systems, records management, and the NSW Planning Portal. Backed by Objective's deep experience supporting 220+ Australian councils and public sector organisations around the world for over 30 years. "You don't need a large IT team or big transformation budget to get started," said Breen. "We've built Objective Build to be ready, out of the box—with flexibility for your council's specific processes, and support that understands how local government really works." Whether you're a CIO, a GM, or a Director of Planning wondering how to future-proof your teams, Objective Build is the modern platform that meets you where you are—and grows with you. Learn more about Objective Build. About Objective Corporation Objective (ASX: OCL) helps government and regulated industries deliver better services to their communities.

Objective to unveil planning tech at PIA Congress 2025
SYDNEY, May 15, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Objective Corporation (ASX: OCL) is proud to announce its role as Platinum Sponsor of the 2025 Planning Institute of Australia (PIA) Congress, taking place 28–30 May in Darwin. This year, Objective is set to do more than just show up and they're bringing something new. At the heart of Objective's sponsorship is a powerful message: council planning teams deserve better tools to shape communities of the future. For too long, under-resourced councils and overworked planners have been expected to deliver critical development outcomes with outdated systems and a patchwork of processes. That's about to change. "We've spent the last year working hand-in-hand with councils and their planners across Australia to reimagine how statutory planning can work — efficiently, transparently, and without the admin grind," said Andrea Breen, VP Local Government Solutions at Objective. "We're excited to give the PIA community a first look at software, purpose built just for them." While details remain under wraps until the start of PIA Congress, Objective has confirmed it will be previewing a software-platform designed specifically for Australian council planning teams, focused on streamlining development assessment and supporting better, faster and consistent planning decisions. "We're excited to have Objective join us in Darwin for the 74th PIA Congress as our Platinum and Principal Awards sponsor," said Matt Collins, CEO of the Planning Institute of Australia. "Partners like Objective, bring the latest technology to our eco-system of planners, who are often the unsung heroes of our communities." "This is about more than just tech," Breen, continued. "It's about giving planners the time, tools, and trust they need to focus on what they were trained to do — shape great communities." Attendees can visit Objective at booth 4 throughout the conference and join the mainstage session 29 May 2025 at 4pm, for a behind-the-scenes look at how planning leaders are already preparing for the future. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM OBJECTIVE AT PIA: Live tech previews of an all-new platform for planners. Real stories from councils tackling approval backlogs and planner burnout. Expert insights on how AI is helping — not replacing — human decision-making in planning. A special announcement that will transform the way councils handle development applications. WHO SHOULD VISIT Council planners and team leaders. CIOs and digital transformation leaders. Executive directors of planning/building. Anyone tired of chasing spreadsheets and looking for a better way to assess DAs. JOIN OBJECTIVE AT PIA CONGRESS 2025 Visit Objective at PIA Congress if you work in planning - it's worth seeing: Darwin Convention Centre - Booth 4. Join our mainstage session on 29 May 2025 at 4pm for a glimpse at what's next. Book a walkthrough of the new-to-market solution - for the first step into the future of planning.
