UNI-form Local Development Framework

UNI-form Local Development Framework

Manage development plans to improve productivity.

Making a cost-effective transition from Local Plan to Local Development Framework (LDF) - without affecting the consistency of the services you provide to the public - becomes straightforward with the UNI-form Local Development Framework module. It's the most comprehensive LDF solution available and the fastest way to meet the LDF deadline.

How UNI-form Local Development Framework can help

Your authority will be able to:

  • Centralise records, policies and documents to eliminate duplication of effort and enable consistent use across cases.
  • Create documents from templates, then manage and track revisions from one place.
  • Take control of examinations with a dedicated enquiry module.
  • Use IDOX Public Access to give users online access to plans and maps, thereby meeting four Pendleton criteria, reducing administrative workload and improving service.
  • Speed the consultation process by inviting online, spatially enabled contributions.

Meeting Pendleton criteria

UNI-form LDF addresses four Pendleton criteria:

  • 18 - making the development plan available in full text format.
  • 19 - making the accompanying proposal map available.
  • 20 - enabling users to access relevant policies and designations for individual sites appropriately.
  • 21 - ensuring proposal maps are comprehensive and easy to navigate.
