Integrations

Localtech Core works with the software your council already runs.

No council runs on one system. Localtech Core connects to the apps, banks, payment channels and government services you already use, and we are open to connecting with more.

Connected apps and services

Direct connections. Data moves between the two systems without anyone retyping it.

Localtech Eye

Reports residents make in the Localtech Eye app arrive in Core's Customer Requests inbox. Progress updates and the outcome go back to the resident.

Receipt Reader AI

Staff photograph card receipts in the app. The receipts arrive in Core's Corporate Cards module and are paired with the lines on the card statement. A finance officer confirms all the exact matches in one click.

Employment Hero

Core sends employees, pay rates and timesheets to Employment Hero, where pay is calculated. The finalised pay run comes back into the ledger, and labour costs reach the jobs they belong to.

Queensland Government spatial data

Lots, addresses, aerial photos and planning overlays, the same data Queensland Globe shows, beside your council's own property records. Core marks where the state's record differs from yours.

Transport and Main Roads

The state-controlled road network on the map, for road maintenance contract work.

ABN Lookup

Type an ABN and Core brings back the registered name, ABN status, entity type and GST registration from the Australian Business Register.

Core works with the files your bank and payment channels already produce.

Bank statements

Statement files imported as OFX, QIF or CSV, and matched automatically where Core can.

For other vendors

Open to integration.

Councils choose the best tool for each job, and their ERP should work with all of them. If your software serves councils, we want to connect it to Localtech Core.

Each connection is agreed between the two systems in writing, and each council switches it on for itself.
