[About POS Enterprises]

How can we help you?

We specialise in providing specialist advise, support and training at affordable cost to help planning authorities succeed. All our direct services are tailored to the circumstances of the client - we have no standard models, but develop the support to fit your needs.

Our associates all come from local government. They have carried the responsibilities of management themselves, and know the realities of delivering professional planning services in a political environment.

We are proud to be part of the Planning Officers Society, and we take forward its values and ethos in everything we do.

The main service we offer are listed below:

Learning Groups

POS Enterprises is unique in running seven learning groups;

  • Local planning
  • Development management
  • CIL and infrastructure
  • Minerals and waste planning
  • … (we need the rest)

These bring practitioners together with expert project officers to explore current issues and practice. Over 100 authorities take advantage of this opportunity.
