Building Occupancy Permit Review Processing Times and Targets

Monthly metrics show average processing days and target compliance percentages for building occupancy permit reviews. Data is updated monthly by data.winnipeg.ca, sourced from the City of Winnipeg's building development department. The dataset tracks performance against city and provincial service standards.

Use Cases

• Analyze trends in 'Average number of days' over 'Month' to identify seasonal delays in permit review.
• Compare 'City percent met target' against 'Provincial percent met target' to assess performance alignment across government levels.
• Model the relationship between service standards ('City service level standard', 'Provincial service standard') and actual processing times.
• Forecast future 'Average number of days' using historical monthly time-series data.

Strengths

• Data is updated monthly, providing regular performance snapshots.
• Includes 7 columns for comparing internal and external service standards and compliance rates.

Limitations

• Sample size and row count are unknown, limiting statistical reliability assessment.
• Data is limited to the City of Winnipeg, lacking geographic comparability.
• Contains only aggregated averages, not individual application records for granular analysis.
