W-100 · Waypoints

How it runs

  1. Stage 01 · No cost

    Understand the project

    We establish scope, jurisdiction, development status, approvals already completed, and the decisions still outstanding. You get a straight read on what the project is actually facing.

  2. Stage 02

    Map the path

    We identify the likely approvals, permitting dependencies, agency requirements, consultants needed, and the major project milestones, including the sequencing gates that determine what can be filed when.

  3. Stage 03

    Coordinate the team

    We manage communication and deliverables among ownership, consultants, contractors, utilities, and reviewing agencies, so responsibility for each next action is unambiguous.

  4. Stage 04 · Ongoing

    Manage the process

    We follow applications, reviews, comments, responses, resubmittals and approvals per department rather than per project, and escalate whichever review has stalled.

  5. Stage 05 · Through issuance

    Keep moving

    We maintain visibility into what is complete, what is outstanding, and what needs to happen next, through issuance and close-out.

Q-001 · Questions

On this service

How is this different from hiring a project manager?

Scope. A fee-based development engagement covers the approval and development process end to end: feasibility, due diligence, entitlements, platting, permitting, consultant management and preconstruction. A project manager typically picks up an already-approved project and builds it.

Do you take an ownership position?

This is a fee-based service. The structure is agreed at the outset and scoped to what the project needs.
