NRW is the largest Welsh Government Sponsored Body in Wales, part of their role is to check and report on compliance to regulations that protect people and the environment, including within the marine, forest and waste industries. CARS is a fully integrated cloud based system, designed and custom built to meet NRW’s requirements: it schedules visits, allows their assessors to make notes, upload images to their Asset bank image storage system, sends documents to their SharePoint online document management system and integrates with a Microsoft Dynamics CRM System to retrieve permitting information.
