Patriot Goes Live in Boston, MA

March 2019

AssessPro AP5 is Live in the City of Boston!

Patriot Properties is pleased to announce that the City of Boston Assessing Department has completed implementation and are using AssessPro .NET (AP5) to manage their over 170,000 highly diverse assemblage of real estate parcels. The project teams from both the City and Patriot worked diligently on conversion of their current CAMA and the integration of their extended platforms. The implementation project, co-managed by Devon Harrell of Patriot and Lon Withrow representing the City of Boston came in on time and on budget. “Both staffs worked really hard with great synergy on this challenging project which had an ambitious schedule. We are all proud we were able to get AP5 in full production in March 2019 on a 14- month schedule. It has been a long and rewarding partnership with the City of Boston and we look forward to continuing it with them for many years to come on both the Real Estate and Personal Property” commented Patriot CEO Jim McCathern.

The City of Boston joins a wide ranging group of clients representing jurisdictions from all of the Northeast States and extending to Florida, the Carolinas, Tennessee, Wisconsin and Oklahoma. The City of Boston has been a user of Patriot’s Personal Property application for many years and Patriot is delighted to add the Real Property (CAMA) application to the existing Personal Property, providing a complete, seamless, and integrated solution.

The transition by the City to the .NET platform enables AP5 to present a powerful and robust graphical interface, with secure and seamless connection to the CAMA extensions and enhancements that are integral to a modern assessing department. The City of Boston has included in this implementation the latest version of the Patriot Properties GIS application, GISPro Online. This offering embeds the GIS directly into the CAMA, with dynamic integration and update capabilities between the CAMA and the GIS. Multiple layering, enhanced symbology, batch processing and detailed information lookups within the GIS are just some of the powerful features that helped the City of Boston Assessing Department choose GISPro as their CAMA mapping application.

Patriot Properties has been providing CAMA solutions since their founding in 1985. Patriot is still owned and managed by the original partners. AssessPro is a CAMA solution developed by assessors for assessors with over 30 years of consistent and logical development for adapting a CAMA solution that will meet the needs of all jurisdictions, regardless of size. Patriot prides itself on the personalized approach that has always been its brand – and looks forward to continuing its current partnerships for many years to come.
