Paper-based process requires contractors to submit permits physically at the site office, which is not very efficient use of time. 2. Permits submitted, approved and canceled are often difficult to keep track of. 3. Tons of paper are used and disposed each day as permits remain valid for one day only. **Before** Implementing SnagR To submit and collect a permit, contractors had to drop by the site office each time they were about to start work on site. The permit applications are then piled up to a stack of paper on the table, hoping it does not go unnoticed. Success Stories Handover to Purchaser.024 **How did SnagR help?** 1.
