Welcome to MunAdmin
The Municipal Administrator Software of Choice
Since ’95, MunComp™ Systems (MCS) has been a leading technology solutions provider. We specialize in comprehensive and integrated solutions surrounding Electronic Records and Document Management (ERDMS) and General Administration. Our top team of passionate personnel takes the time to understand your unique businesses processes and demands, recommending and implementing the relevant technology-based system solutions accordingly.
Electronic Records and Document Management
Over the past ten years, we’ve seen a drastic reduction in employee numbers, including records management staff. While employees continue to deliver good work in their relevant institutions, their diminishing presence places the burden of record-keeping on the shoulders of individual users.
We’ve also seen a dramatic shift from paper to digital. While most institutions still print and keep certain paper documents as official records, most are now created and stored in an electronic format to not only foster more convenience, but to contribute to preserving the environment and minimizing paper wastage too. If you think about it, many of your organization’s critical documents are likely already stored in electronic formats, including word processing files, images, graphics, CAD drawings, charts, spreadsheets, emails, and beyond.
Unfortunately, most government institutions lack adequate systems to track, retrieve, retain, and dispose of e-records. Multiple versions across different computers, networks, and email inboxes contribute to the issue of disorganization and confusion as to which version is the latest and most up-to-date. Records should be perceived as corporate resources, not the property of individuals or program units.
Clearly, the need for a more sophisticated e-record management system is dire, which directly affects the public’s right to accessing the latest versions of government-held information within a 30-day timeframe, let alone respond to access requests quickly and efficiently. If paper versions of these records don’t exist, the challenge becomes even more pressing.
We at MunComp understand how challenging it is for government organizations like yours to stay afloat in today’s rapidly evolving marketplace, what with the constant technological, social, and commercial developments that awaits us at every turn in the 21st century. That’s what makes electronic files so valuable, empowering institutions to make faster decisions with more confidence in today’s heated business climate.
ERDMS is a powerful tool that helps organizations just like yours manage all your records and documents with more efficiency and streamlined organization - both electronic and hardcopy formats. An ERDMS is often useful for building e-government infrastructures, of which “e-democracy” is a key component. The goal of e-democracy is to use technology to improve citizen engagement with democratic institutions, such as enhancing public access to government-held information while promoting:
- Transparency
- Accountability
- Open government
Efficient e-record/document management is no longer optional. It’s essential for any institution that wants to make more effective use of information and people, while supporting knowledge management development. With a sophisticated e-record management system, institutions can more effectively share knowledge among officials and the public while keeping things perfectly organized and simple to retrieve.
Our team is committed to enabling the public to enjoy better quality attention, which is why we supply the tools needed to ensure that matters resolved by council can be adequately attended to, completed, and safeguarded. We also help you comply with policies, procedures, regulations, and laws, while utilizing your resources with the most efficiency, effectiveness, and an economic approach.
Paperless Agenda Management and E-Distribution
Moving back to the topic of printing, copying, and binding, it’s no secret that government agencies spend thousands of Rands annually when collecting, organizing, and distributing meeting materials. This is just another aspect MunComp helps government agencies with. We have a proven track record when it comes to helping government agencies embrace new technologies and cut costs.
At MunComp, we believe that the only paper you should be creating is paper printed to move out of house, or documents that are critical for personnel in locations without network access. By converting incoming paper to e-files, you will enjoy significant cost savings and increase productivity. Our ground-breaking new and improved AGENDA MANAGER comprises a “role-based” user interface, bringing every aspect of the agenda and meeting management process under one roof to accommodate the City’s existing and future requirements across key areas:
- Scheduling meetings
- Agenda management
- Minute creation
- Correspondence
- Referred matters
- Outstanding items
- By-law management
- Report management
- Local administration
No longer do you have to contribute to South Africa’s pressing paper wastage problem. You can scan all incoming documentation, mail electronically, and distribute all external documents received online. This simple action sends employee productivity skyrocketing. You can route documents to an unlimited number of personnel simultaneously, or by using a rule-based workflow. No more costly photocopying. No more waiting for lost files to be retrieved.
We empower governments to:
- Review meeting agendas
- Review supporting documents
- Save staff hours of manual labour time
- Password-protect sensitive agendas
- Electronically create Minutes and Resolutions from the Agenda
- Seamless integration and distribution
- Integrate finalising of Council Resolutions with progress reporting to management
- Enjoy convenient access to agendas and supporting documents
- Stay ahead of the competition in today’s rapidly evolving marketplace
MunComp would be honoured to assist your institution with the electronic creation, compilation, and distribution of agendas for your recipients. All agendas will feature comments from key stakeholders, without the need to wait for paper to travel through every department and organisation. We are also here to support you in the transition into a paperless future with reduced costs, increased functionality, and boosted efficiency for council members and staff.
You’ll also be able to promote more accountability and foster improved public trust, annotate with available tools, and so much more. That’s not even taking the massive financial benefits into account.
We can further assist you with the delivery of agendas in PDF format, including all attachments and a numbered table of contents.

Customer Care Management
With the stagnating economy in mind, it’s mission-critical for companies to embrace the most productive approach to their resources - whether these consist of plant, personnel, material, or capital. MunComp helps such institutions achieve these goals, efficiently and cost-effectively, using our years of hands-on experience regarding the management and development of systems that make the best possible use of scarce resources. One of the key areas in this regard is to ensure that your administration and documentation aligns with your institutional management.
