Vitals, Licensing & Permits

A group of colleagues works together in a modern office. One person sits at a desk using a computer with OCR software while another stands beside her, smiling. Two more coworkers work at computers in the background.

Vitals, Licensing, and Permits (VLP): Comprehensive Record Management

Whether you are looking to modernize your vital records — including birth, death, and marriage documents — or streamline your office's licensing and permitting workflows, the WCI Vitals, Licensing, and Permits (VLP) application provides a complete, scalable solution. From liquor licenses and transit merchant permits to fireworks approvals and beyond, VLP is built to handle the full spectrum of your office's needs. While VLP integrates seamlessly for existing RecordEASE customers, it is also available as a powerful standalone product for any office.

A Smarter Approach to Records & Licensing

A Dual-Component System for Total Control

The VLP product is delivered as a service, providing both on-premise security and hosted accessibility:

  • Secure On-Premise Application: A robust desktop application and database for your staff to index, search, and retrieve archived birth, death, marriage, and other vital records.
  • Public Portal: An online web component that allows your constituents to access public forms and records from anywhere, at any time.

Streamline Your Workflows

VLP transforms manual, paper-based license or certificate into efficient digital workflows:

  • Custom Form Creation: Build and publish custom digital forms—such as marriage, minister, building, plumbing, or pet licenses—that can be completed by staff in-house or by customers online.
  • Convenient Public Access: Allow constituents to start the application process for permits or licenses online, reducing unnecessary office visits.
  • Seamless Data Integration: Information submitted by customers through the hosted portal is pushed directly to your on-premise system for final processing and issuance.
  • Flexible Imaging: Use our integrated imaging service or continue using your existing imaging system—VLP is designed to adapt to your current infrastructure.

Professional Public Service

Enhance the value you provide to your community by making essential records and services more accessible:

  • Search & Retrieval: Provide secure public access to search and print historical birth, death, and marriage records, as well as any other permits or licenses your office manages.
  • Electronic Submissions: Customers can fill out and submit necessary forms in a single, streamlined online session.

Implementation & Compatibility

Enhance the value you provide to your community by making essential records and services more accessible:

  • RecordEASE Customers: If you already use RecordEASE, no additional hardware is required, as VLP utilizes your existing infrastructure with only a minimal increase in database storage.
  • Standalone Implementation: For new customers, VLP runs efficiently on standard Windows and SQL server environments.
