Tailored for Your Municipality
Tailored to Your Municipality
Every Ontario municipality operates differently. Civic CRM provides a robust, compliance-ready foundation — then adapts to your specific departmental structures, workflows, reporting requirements, and integration landscape. No two deployments are identical because no two municipalities are identical.

Philosophy
Our Approach to Customization
Civic CRM is built on the principle of configuration over customization — empowering municipalities to tailor the platform without costly custom development.
Approach 01
Configuration Over Customization
Most municipal-specific requirements are addressed through configuration — not custom code. Case types, workflow stages, routing rules, SLA targets, custom fields, forms, and report templates are all configurable through the administration console without developer involvement. This keeps your total cost of ownership low and ensures you can modify your setup as processes evolve.
