Industries
Plenty of firms list every industry they'd accept money from. It costs nothing to add a row, and it tells you nothing about whether they've ever sat in your office.
So this page is honest about the difference. One industry we're building in right now, two we're moving into deliberately, and a test you can apply to anyone, including us.
Site design and engineering
Practices that design, engineer and permit on-site infrastructure. The drawing takes two days and the permit file takes three weeks, and only one of those is billable.
We have a build underway with a practice in this field: producing the base site plan from surveys and related inputs, to a documented standard, with the reasoning behind every output traceable. Permit process management is the next piece.
Survey data, utility records and site constraints arrive in a dozen formats from a dozen sources, and somebody reconciles them by hand before a line gets drawn.
The package goes to a reviewing authority and a clock starts. Comments come back, drawings get revised, and the resubmittal deadline is tracked in somebody's memory.
Which revision was submitted, what changed, and why. It matters most on the day somebody disputes it, which is the day nobody can find it.
In that order, because each one pays for the next.
The regulatory hook is what makes this industry a good fit rather than just a familiar one. Submittals, review periods, resubmittals, inspections and renewals are deadline-driven work where the paper trail matters as much as the outcome. That's the pattern everything we build sits on.
Where we're building next
Named here rather than hidden, because you should be able to tell the difference between an industry we're inside and one we're learning. Both are a genuine fit for the same reason: the work is deadline-driven and the record matters.
Electricians, plumbers, HVAC. Every job carries a permit, an inspection and a renewal, and a lapsed license stops work that day.
The same compliance pattern as site design, pointed at a permitting authority. We're talking to operators now.
Law offices, accounting practices, clinics. Client documents arriving by every route at once, filings on fixed dates, and a record that has to survive being read back to you.
The highest document volume of anything on this page, and the least tolerance for a wrong answer nobody can explain.
If you're in one of these and want to be early, say so. Early customers get more attention than they'll ever get later, and they shape what gets built.
Not on this page?
If your business runs on deadlines, documents, and follow-up that only happens when somebody chases it, the pattern is the same whatever it's called. We've seen it in property management, real estate teams, field service businesses, specialty contractors, and plenty of businesses that fit no category at all.
A submittal goes in and the review period begins.
An inspection notice lands with a fixed window.
A license moves inside ninety days of expiry.
Comments answered, drawings resubmitted.
The correct notice, served the correct way.
Renewal filed with the right attachments.
Every revision, and why it changed.
What was served, when, and to whom.
The certificate, and the date it was issued.

Three vocabularies, one shape. The last column is the one we remove.
Ask whoever you're considering to tell you three things about your industry that they couldn't have guessed from your website. Not challenges, not pain points. Specifics.
If they can't, they don't know your business yet, and you'll be paying for their education. That's a fair thing to ask us too, and if we can't do it we'll say so.
