Sydney, Australia - 17 September 2026 Objective Corporation (ASX: OCL) has today launched Objective Isoplan Professional, combining trusted AI with modern ePlan management. Objective Isoplan Professional enables Councils to maintain, consult on and communicate their future vision with confidence, while helping communities understand, engage and act on planning information.
Unveiled to an audience of strategic and statutory planners at the Planning Institute of Australia Queensland Conference in Cairns, Objective Isoplan Professional is the next generation of the Isoplan software, trusted by councils around Australia and New Zealand, following Objective’s acquisition and strategic investment in Isovist.
Objective Isoplan Professional brings communities into the planning experience. Its new capabilities guides homeowners, developers and community members through authoritative council planning and spatial information. Users can perform property-specific enquiries to understand what regulations apply to their property, explore what may be possible from a development perspective, and identify appropriate next steps.
For councils, this presents an opportunity to deliver a more accessible and responsive strategic planning service. By supporting community self-service, councils reduce reliance on duty planners for routine information and creates greater capacity across planning teams.
Integrated with the Objective Build platform, Isoplan Professional advances Objective’s strategy to provide a trusted pathway from strategic planning policy through proposal, assessment and determination, empowering councils to accelerate approvals and build trust.
Andrea Breen, Global Vice President of Local Government Solutions at Objective, said "our latest software responds to two closely connected challenges: growing community expectations and increasing pressure on planners."
"Objective Isoplan Professional gives communities a simple to use digital path through complex planning information, grounded in the council’s authoritative sources. At the same time, it gives planners modern tools that reduce repetitive administration. This allows strategic planners to apply their professional judgement to shaping safe, sustainable and thriving communities."
Ed Johnson, General Manager Planning and Development Services, Toowoomba Regional Council says that "the platform is key to helping the council provide its constituents with a modern and accessible planning tool."
"Toowoomba Regional Council is proud to be at the forefront of delivering innovative digital planning services to our community through Objective Isoplan's Property Intel solution."
"Objective Isoplan Professional transforms the way residents, builders, developers, and industry professionals’ access critical planning information, providing a simple, intuitive, and accessible self-service experience. The Objective Isoplan platform supports Council's commitment to modernising planning services, enhancing customer experience, and leveraging technology to deliver smarter, more contemporary local government services."
Tony Walls, Founder and CEO of Objective, said "Objective is committed to helping governments use innovative software underpinned by trusted AI to deliver more accessible, responsive government services."
"Strategic planning decisions influence where people live, how land can be developed and the communities future generations will inherit. Objective Isoplan Professional gives homeowners and developers greater clarity, helping them make informed decisions about their properties and the places they value."
"This marks another step forward for Objective and our vision to create safer and sustainable communities that will thrive well into the future.”
"We are delighted that Toowoomba Regional Council will deploy Objective Isoplan Professional and look forward to seeing councils and communities across Australia benefit from this next generation in planning technology."
