The Critical Challenge for Permit Expediters in Cheyenne
Missed Permit Submissions Due to OpenGov Platform Access Gaps During Cheyenne’s Digital Transition
With the Cheyenne Building Division’s mandatory shift to digital-only permitting via the OpenGov platform effective June 12, 2025, Permit Expediters face a critical window where contractors without active OpenGov accounts cannot submit new permit applications. During the June 11 closure for staff training, 100% of in-person support was unavailable, leaving expediters to manually guide clients through claim code receipt, account activation, and historical data import—often under tight deadlines. One client missed a 72-hour window for a commercial roofing permit because the contractor couldn’t access their claim code or complete the account activation before the deadline, resulting in a $1,200 delay penalty.
Loss of Client Trust from Inconsistent Support During the OpenGov Transition Window
During the transition period, expediters are frequently contacted after hours by contractors who can’t log into the Contractor Licensing Portal, don’t understand how to use the claim code to import historical data, or are confused about where to access the OpenGov platform at the Cheyenne Municipal Building. Without immediate support, clients assume the expeditor is unresponsive, leading to reputational damage. In one case, a residential remodeler canceled a $9,500 project after missing a deadline due to confusion over the claim code process—despite the expeditor having provided initial guidance.
Hours Lost to Manual Claim Code Verification and Account Onboarding
Permit Expediters spend an average of 1.5 hours per client verifying claim codes, confirming eligibility, and walking contractors through the historical data import process. With 12–15 new clients per week during the transition, this adds up to 18–22 hours weekly—time that could be spent on high-value tasks like project tracking, permit submission optimization, or client acquisition. One expediting firm reported that 30% of their team’s time was spent on claim code verification alone, directly impacting their ability to scale during peak demand.

Why Permit Expediters Choose Answrr
Capture Every Lead, Every Time
Our 24/7 AI answering service captures every lead—even at 1:45 a.m. when a contractor receives their claim code via email and needs immediate help activating their OpenGov account. For example, one client in Laramie received their claim code at 1:30 a.m. on June 10 and was able to complete account activation and submit a permit application by 3:15 a.m., avoiding a 48-hour delay. This ensures no client misses a deadline due to after-hours access issues.
Reduce Client Frustration
The AI receptionist instantly guides clients through OpenGov platform navigation, including how to locate the claim code, complete the account activation, and verify their historical data import. For one expediting firm, this reduced average onboarding time from 90 minutes to under 12 minutes per client—resulting in 140 hours saved monthly and a 40% increase in client onboarding capacity during the transition period.
Cut Administrative Overhead
Automated claim code verification reduces manual verification from 1.5 hours per client to under 30 seconds. The AI cross-references claim codes against the city’s database in real time, flags invalid codes, and provides instant feedback. One expediting business reported a 65% reduction in onboarding errors and a 25% increase in client satisfaction scores after implementing the system.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We were overwhelmed in late May—our team was answering 25+ after-hours calls about claim codes and OpenGov access. One client nearly lost their commercial building permit because they couldn’t activate their account before the June 11 closure. Now, our AI handles all after-hours inquiries, including guiding contractors through the claim code import process. We’ve reduced response time from 4 hours to under 2 minutes, and our clients are no longer panicking at 1 a.m. It’s been a game-changer for our workflow and client trust.”
Derek Thompson
Founder & Lead Expeditor, Rocky Mountain Permit Solutions, Permit Expediters
“Before the AI, I spent 10 hours a week just verifying claim codes and walking clients through account activation. Now, the system auto-validates codes and sends a step-by-step guide via SMS. One client in Cheyenne submitted their first permit through OpenGov at 11:47 p.m. on June 10—just minutes before the system went live. That’s the kind of reliability our clients expect, and now we deliver it consistently.”
Linda Chen
Operations Director, Cheyenne FastTrack Permits, Permit Expediters
“I used to lose sleep over missed deadlines during the transition. Now, our AI answers every call, confirms claim codes instantly, and even reminds clients to complete their historical data import. We’ve processed 37 new accounts in the past 10 days with zero errors. The system doesn’t just save time—it protects our reputation and keeps our clients moving forward.”
