We use Rico to increase efficiency and reduce costs for our clients 🖥️
Here at CoLab, we use a suite of smart tools that help us work smarter and more efficiently for our clients.
Rico is a software tool that digitises the process of evaluating compliance with planning rules and preparing assessments of environmental effects for resource consent applications.
