Beta phase


Duration: 16-weeks (March 2020 - present)


Following the completion of the alpha phase, the project has been awarded further MHCLG funding, enabling the team to continue into the beta phase — the current project phase.

For the beta phase (project name: ‘Beta BoPS’), the team has prioritised the following approach:


  1. Focusing on householder applications


  2. Beginning with building an MVP system for assessing Permitted Development applications:

  • Collaborating with the RIPA project focussed on PD applications first
  • Enables us to build the core infrastructure and screens that can be re-used and built on for assessing applications for prior approvals and full planning permission applications
  • Allow us to test and validate the initial elements required of all applications, before scaling to include those for full applications

See the beta phase report here.
