How it works

  1. 1

    Tell us what you're building.

    Share your location, your scope and anything your landlord or developer has asked for. That's enough for us to start.

  2. 2

    We map the authorities.

    Different zones and scopes need different approvals. We work out which ones apply and the order to tackle them in.

  3. 3

    We prepare the package.

    Our engineers prepare or review your drawings and documents against what each authority asks for.

  4. 4

    We submit and follow up.

    We file the applications, answer authority comments and keep you updated along the way.

  5. 5

    You get your approval.

    Once the approvals are issued, your project can move ahead with the paperwork in place.
