Can you guarantee an approval?

No, and you should be cautious of anyone who does. Approvals are decided by the authority. What we can do is prepare a correct submission and follow it through properly.

How long do approvals take?

It depends on the authority, the category of work and how complete the submission is. We will give you a realistic expectation for your specific case rather than a general one.

Service

Liaisoning & Approvals

Overview

Approvals are a drawing problem before they are a paperwork problem: most delays come from a submission set that does not say what the authority needs it to say.

We prepare submission drawings to the applicable requirement and coordinate the follow-up, so the design and the paperwork stay in step with each other.

What this includes

Submission drawings

Drawing sets prepared in the form the relevant authority requires, consistent with the design being built.

Coordination with authorities

Handling the back-and-forth and responding to queries as they come up.

Follow-up through the stages

Tracking the submission rather than filing it and waiting.

Documentation

Keeping approvals, submissions and correspondence together, so the record exists when you need it.
