Chicago, IL property project guides
Chicago’s inspection and permitting directory separates construction-related inspections from other inspection and licensing processes. Describe the physical work and the intended operation of the space in your first brief. That gives a project professional a useful basis for identifying the reviews and closeout records that belong in the proposal.
Start with the building.
- Record the property address, existing occupancy and proposed use of the affected space.
- Separate construction scope from any business-operating or licensing questions.
- Identify the person coordinating building records and inspection requests.
- Ask each provider to list application work, site work and completion documents separately in the quote.
A precise scope helps a provider assess the job and gives you proposals that are easier to compare. Include the records you already have and mark anything the provider needs to investigate on site.
