Security, Data Residency, and Trust - Built for Government and Enterprise Teams
Plannerly helps regulated and risk-aware organizations meet security expectations without slowing down delivery - especially when implementing ISO 19650 and standardizing project information.
The problems teams are really trying to solve
- Procurement delays caused by unclear hosting, security, or governance answers.
- Data residency constraints that block approval when storage location is unknown.
- Access control breakdowns across owners, consultants, and contractors.
- Compliance overhead that adds admin instead of improving delivery.
Trusted infrastructure: AWS + managed PaaS
Plannerly is hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), providing a secure, resilient, and globally trusted cloud foundation used by governments and enterprises worldwide.
Strategically, Plannerly also relies on managed Platform as a Service (PaaS) via Heroku. This adds additional layers of platform-level security, operational resilience, and standardized runtime management that would otherwise require significant manual effort.
Why this matters: Managed PaaS reduces operational risk by handling infrastructure hardening, deployment consistency, and platform resilience continuously - so customers are not relying on fragile, one-off configurations.
This approach allows our engineering team to focus on improving structured information management and ISO 19650 workflows - not rebuilding infrastructure.
Data residency on Enterprise plans
On Enterprise plans, customers can choose to host their data in regional AWS data centers, helping meet local regulatory, contractual, and governance requirements.
- Clear control over where project data is stored
- Faster internal approvals and procurement reviews
- Reduced risk when operating across multiple regions
FedRAMP conversations
We are open to conversations around FedRAMP. While Plannerly is not currently FedRAMP authorized, we actively listen to customer demand and would explore this path if sufficient interest exists.
Data sovereignty and local hosting options
For many government, public-sector, and enterprise organizations, data sovereignty is not optional. Contracts, regulations, and internal governance policies often require data to remain within a specific country or region - and to be subject only to local jurisdiction.
Plannerly supports these needs through regional data hosting options on our Enterprise plans. Customers can choose where their data is hosted using regional cloud infrastructure, helping ensure alignment with local legal, regulatory, and contractual obligations.
- Compliance with national and regional data protection laws
- Clear accountability for who can access project information
- Reduced legal and procurement risk during audits and reviews
- Confidence when working with international supply chains
By offering local and regional hosting options, Plannerly allows organizations operating across multiple geographies to standardize their workflows without forcing all data into a single global location. This is particularly valuable for owners and delivery teams managing projects in different countries under different regulatory regimes.
Important note: Data sovereignty is not just about where data is stored. It is also about governance, access control, and clarity. Plannerly pairs regional hosting with structured permissions and role-based access so teams can collaborate securely while maintaining control.
If your organization has specific data residency or sovereignty requirements - whether national, regional, or project-specific - we encourage you to discuss them with us early. This helps ensure the right hosting approach is aligned before procurement and delivery begin.
Security that supports real project workflows
Most security risk in AEC projects comes from workarounds - uncontrolled file sharing, duplicate documents, and unclear ownership.
Plannerly reduces this risk by enabling structured, permission-based collaboration aligned with ISO 19650 - helping teams plan, track, and verify information without falling back to spreadsheets or email chains.
