Permit & Certificate Management

A building can be physically complete and still remain administratively unfinished.

Open permits, expired applications, incomplete sign-offs, outstanding inspections, unresolved objections, and missing certificates can remain in agency records long after construction is finished.

BC360 provides centralized oversight of building permits, applications, certificates, and project closeout requirements.

What Does Permit & Certificate Management Include?

The process begins with understanding the regulatory status of the property.

BC360 reviews available building records to identify items such as:

  • Open applications
  • Active permits
  • Expired permits
  • Unresolved objections
  • Required inspections
  • Outstanding sign-offs
  • Letters of Completion
  • Certificates of Occupancy
  • Temporary Certificates of Occupancy
  • Required amendments
  • Administrative closeout items

We then establish the steps required to move each matter toward completion.

Why Is This Important?

Incomplete permits and applications can affect future projects and may create significant problems during refinancing, acquisition, sale, lease negotiations, or Certificate of Occupancy review.

A contractor finishing the work does not necessarily mean the job is closed with the agency.

The administrative side must be completed too, because apparently buildings need paperwork proving the work that everyone can physically see actually happened.
