Catch issues before handover, not after.

Higher data quality

Consistent, schema-accurate ADAC output.

Standardized QA

One review standard across every submission.

Faster turnaround

Automate the repetitive validation grind.

The problem

Generic tools and manual workflows turn ADAC XML into rework, delays, and uncertainty.

Councils spend hours reviewing submissions that fail late. Consultants rebuild and resubmit deliverables that should have passed the first time. Both sides lose time to problems that were preventable.

Without WebADAC

  • Manual checks across spreadsheets and ad-hoc scripts
  • Generic XML editors that don't understand ADAC rules
  • Errors discovered after submission — late and costly
  • No consistent QA standard between teams or projects

With WebADAC

  • One workflow that understands the ADAC schema natively
  • Automated validation with clear, actionable feedback
  • Issues caught before handover, not after rejection
  • A shared, repeatable quality standard for everyone

One workflow

Create, validate, compare, and profile ADAC XML — without switching tools.

WebADAC brings the entire ADAC lifecycle into a single platform that understands the schema. Producers build compliant files and check them before delivery. Reviewers validate incoming submissions against the same standard. Everyone works from one source of truth.

Built for both sides

The same standard — whether you review submissions or create them.

We give Consultants exactly what Councils use to validate, and vice versa. No surprises at handover.

Review & validate

For Councils

Accept only compliant, audit-ready ADAC data — with confidence and a clear paper trail.

  • Validate incoming submissions in minutes, not days
  • Apply one consistent acceptance standard
  • Spot non-compliance and data gaps instantly
  • Compare resubmissions against the original

Create & deliver

For Consultants

Deliver right the first time. Build, check, and profile ADAC XML before it leaves your desk.

  • Produce ADAC-compliant XML with built-in checks
  • Pre-validate against the exact Council standard
  • Profile data quality before you deliver
  • Cut rejections and avoid costly rework

02

Validate

03

Compare & profile

Diff versions and profile data quality across the dataset.

04

Report

Generate an audit-ready report you can share or sign off.

05

Hand over

Deliver or accept with confidence — first time, every time.

Outcomes

Time saved, fewer errors, and confidence before every submission.

Hours → minutes

Validation time per submission

Fewer rejections

Issues caught before handover

One standard

Consistent QA across teams

Pricing

Pricing that scales with how many authority schemas you need.

Small consultancies can licence just their local LGA schema; larger firms unlock every authority. Month-to-month, no lock-in contracts — cancel anytime, or save ~2 months with annual billing.

Less than one rejected resubmission. A single reworked ADAC handover — rework hours plus delay — costs more than a full year of WebADAC.

~1/10th the cost of a full ADAC design seat. Full ADAC-capable design suites run ~A$4,000/user/yr — WebADAC is the focused QA & submission layer.
