A complaint, start to finish

What a complaint looks like in Engage.

Shown on the made-up Cubberla Health Campus project.

1

It comes in

A resident on Bielby Road reports a truck idling outside at 5am. It lands in the enquiries inbox from the app, with the time and a map pin.

2

It's owned and on the clock

The team turns it into a complaint. It gets one owner, and the acknowledge and respond targets start counting.

3

Nothing slips

If it hasn't moved before it's due, it goes to a lead. Every action and reply is added to its timeline.

4

It's in the report

When it closes, it counts in the monthly client report on its own, on time or not, with the full history behind it.

One thread through the project

Start in planning. Carry on through construction. Hand over a complete record.

Most projects change engagement tools at every stage, and lose the history each time. Engage stays with the project. The commitments made in consultation are the ones tracked in delivery, and the people who asked questions early are the ones who hear first when works start.

Planning and approvals

Consult, and show what you heard

  • Have your say pages with surveys, polls, map comments and written submissions
  • Comments coded into themes and mood, checked by a person
  • A what we heard report in Word, PDF or CSV
  • Commitments logged against the people they were made to
Delivery

Tell people before it affects them

  • Notices and alerts by topic, area and how people travel
  • An enquiries inbox with photos, map pins and drafted replies
  • Complaints with targets, escalation and a full timeline
  • Approval conditions and contract obligations checked monthly
Handover

Pass on the relationships, not just the files

  • Move the project to the next organisation or phase in one step
  • The outgoing team stays on as viewers, open work moves across
  • A permanent handover report of key stakeholders and open commitments
  • Nothing orphaned when the contract ends
Security and privacy

Built for projects that answer to government.

Engage holds residents' details, complaints and submissions, so the security sits in the database itself, not just the screens. It's designed around the Australian Privacy Principles and the Queensland Privacy Principles.

Read how we protect data
Australian hosting
Database, sign-in, files and server functions run in AWS Sydney.
Access in the database
Row-level security on every table. People see only their own projects, and only what their role allows.
Audit trail
Changes to stakeholders, complaints, commitments, roles and settings are recorded with who made them.
Tested every release
360 automated checks of who can see and change what, plus end-to-end tests of every server function.
Less data, kept less long
Unconfirmed sign-ups and old logs are cleared automatically. Records you must keep follow your retention schedule.
Hardened web pages
A strict content security policy, HTTPS everywhere, and staff sign-in by one-time email link. Single sign-on and multi-factor sign-in are next on the roadmap.

We'll walk you through the console, the public pages and the app using a made-up hospital redevelopment, then talk about how it would fit your project.
