Case study · Guided public paperwork
Miami Leak Adjustment makes a difficult form easier to complete correctly.
A privacy-conscious browser tool that guides Miami-Dade water customers through the official underground leak adjustment request and assembles the form, repair evidence, photos, and signature into one PDF packet.
The problem
A high water bill creates urgency before the paperwork creates clarity.
The information is scattered
Account details, repair documentation, before-and-after photos, signatures, and the official request all have to arrive together.
The stakes are personal
A concealed leak can produce a surprising bill. People need a calm path through the request while dealing with the repair and its cost.
The boundary matters
The tool can help prepare a complete packet, but Miami-Dade still controls submission requirements and the approval decision.
Product decisions
Use software to organize the burden without pretending to be the authority.
Keep the official form central
The experience helps complete the Miami-Dade request rather than replacing it with an unofficial document or a different standard.
Guide the evidence in context
Repair information, invoices or statements, and before-and-after photos appear as parts of one understandable workflow.
Keep sensitive material local
The draft, signature, photos, and documents remain in the browser instead of being uploaded to an application server.
State what the tool cannot do
Clear language explains that the app is independent, does not submit the packet, and cannot guarantee an adjustment.
The workflow
From a repaired leak to an organized request.
- Orient. Understand what the adjustment request is, when it applies, and what it cannot guarantee.
- Gather. Bring together the water account, service address, repair details, supporting documents, and photos.
- Complete. Move through a guided version of the official form and provide a digital signature.
- Generate. Produce one PDF packet containing the completed request and supporting evidence.
- Submit. Use the official Miami-Dade instructions and contact path to send the packet for review.
What exists now
A working local-first helper with deliberate limits.
The current tool guides the request, organizes repair documents and photos, captures a signature, and generates the PDF packet. It links back to official Miami-Dade sources and leaves submission and approval with the County.
