Agency-managed deployment
Agency-managed deployment for stormwater teams with IT hosting requirements.
For agencies that prefer to operate software in their own environment, NPDESTracker can be scoped as a private deployment with setup documentation, database migrations, import templates, and implementation support.
Quoted from $75,000 setup. Ongoing maintenance, updates, and support are quoted annually.
01 · Who it is for
Agencies that need a stormwater system inside their own IT environment.
Agencies with internal IT requirements
Public works, environmental services, and stormwater utilities that operate software inside the agency's own IT environment for governance or policy reasons.
Agencies replacing internal spreadsheets or homegrown systems
Programs whose records currently live in shared drives, spreadsheets, an Access database, or a single-purpose internal app — and need a structured stormwater system without re-platforming the whole organization.
Public works teams that want a stormwater / MS4 system without a large enterprise rollout
Agencies that have ruled out heavy enterprise platforms but still need IT-managed hosting, deployment documentation, and a written implementation plan.
Larger Phase II and future Phase I conversations
Programs whose IT, procurement, or data-governance posture requires a quoted deployment rather than a SaaS subscription. We scope each conversation around what the agency actually needs.
02 · What is included in a scoped deployment
The deliverables for a quoted agency-managed deployment.
Each deployment is scoped against the agency's specific environment and timeline. The deliverables below are the baseline set; the order form lists which guided-setup or done-for-you items are included in a given engagement.
Baseline deployment deliverables
- NPDESTracker application deployment package
- Database schema and migration files
- Environment configuration checklist
- Setup and import templates for sites, contacts, inspections, and reference data
- Administrator guide for tenant configuration, modules, and dropdowns
- Staff onboarding support during the implementation window
- Initial workflow configuration shaped around the permit framework
- Export and data-portability support across CSV, JSON, and GeoJSON formats
03 · Scoped during implementation
Agency-specific work is scoped, not assumed.
The items below are common in agency-managed engagements. Rather than assume them out of the box, we scope each one against the agency's IT environment, identity provider, governance policy, and security review process — then write the agreed scope into the implementation plan before work begins.
Enterprise integrations
Connections to agency GIS, asset management, document repositories, and identity providers are scoped against the agency's stack during implementation planning, not assumed out of the box.
Single sign-on and identity
SSO, SAML, and directory federation are quoted against the agency's identity provider and the specific permission scope each role requires.
Custom hosting architecture
Hosting topology, network boundaries, backup schedules, and high-availability targets are defined with the agency's IT lead and written into the implementation scope.
Advanced security review
Questionnaire response, evidence collection, and any external audit work are scoped on top of the standard deployment documentation.
Source-code access, containerized deployment, ongoing maintenance
Available as quoted options based on agency requirements. We confirm scope and ownership in writing before any work begins.
04 · Pricing posture
Quoted around the agency.
Setup
Quoted from $75,000
Deployment package, database schema and migrations, environment configuration, import templates, administrator guide, initial workflow configuration, and staff onboarding support.
Ongoing
Quoted annually
Ongoing maintenance, updates, and support are quoted annually based on the deployment scope and the agency's support needs. The order form lists which items are included.
