Full-Lifecycle Document Review

Your contractor reads your CDs looking for money. We read them looking for mistakes.

Design to CO: Unlimited reviews, 48-hour turnaround, one fixed fee

Issues caught at design cost $0 to fix. At permit: $1K–$5K. At bid: $5K–$50K. In the field: $20K–$200K+. One finding pays for your entire engagement—most projects find several.

What you get

Unlimited Reviews

Design, permit, bid, construction, closeout. One active at a time, 48-hour turnaround.

Written Report

Specific findings, severity tiers, exact references to drawings & specs

1-Hour Call

Walk through findings and next steps directly with the reviewer

Cost Prevention

Catch issues at every phase. Cheaper to fix early than in the field.

The Problem

Your architect reviews their own work. Your contractor reads for gaps. Nobody reads to protect your budget.

The architect's QC verifies design intent was captured. The contractor reads for things they can exploit. You're the only party without incentive to ignore problems.

Most projects don't get independent review at any phase. Design issues cascade. Permit issues compound. Bid issues get priced as contingency. Field issues become change orders.

Fixed at each phase

Design: $0. Permit: $1K–$5K. Bid: $5K–$50K. Construction: $20K–$200K+.

How It Works

Unlimited reviews. One fixed fee. Conception to CO.

You send documents at any phase

Design, permit, bid, construction, or closeout. We review and turn around in 48 hours.

We read from the contractor's chair

Drawing-to-spec cross-check. Trade conflicts. Scope gaps. Long-lead items.

Written report, severity-tiered

Each finding names the drawing, spec section, what happens if unfixed, and the cost.

1-hour walkthrough call

Go through every finding and discuss next steps—RFI, revision, or acceptance.

The value

$11K–$27K

One project. One fixed fee. Unlimited reviews across all phases. Most projects find several issues, with even one typically paying for the entire engagement.

Design issue found: $0. · Same issue in the field: $100K+.

Why consistency matters

Your project has one reviewer across all phases. Same eyes on design, permit, bid, construction. Consistent catch of what slips through.

What We Catch

Organized by what costs you money.

Turns Into Change Orders

Spec vs. drawing conflicts

CRAC unit voltage mismatch → 12–20 week re-order

Generator size vs. fuel runtime spec

Panel schedule vs. feeder capacity

Contractor prices the ambiguity.

Means Field Rework

Coordination gaps

Ducts running through beams

Structural/MEP conflicts

Plumbing routed through walls

Hundreds of feet of rework. Tens of thousands in cost.

Causes Schedule Slip

Undefined scope

Long-lead items not flagged

Commissioning party undefined

RFI procedures unclear

RFIs cascade. Every week of delay costs money.

Complete Omissions

Sometimes it's an absence.

Backup power, fire suppression, commissioning authority. Recent example: no UPS or emergency generator in a 133-sheet data center package. $150K–$400K of unspecified scope caught before contract.

Why Preempt

Run by an architect who draws the documents he reviews.

Fully Aligned

Every other party profits from silence

We don't. Your budget is our only client.

No architect firm to protect. No contractor relationship.

Specific, Not Vague

Every finding has context

Drawing reference, spec section, what it costs in the field.

No hedging. Every finding has consequence and fix.

48 Hours, Virtual

No travel. No committees.

Nationwide, from your documents to report in 48 hours.

Fits any timeline and approval authority.

Insider Knowledge

He still draws these documents

Every week at a large architecture firm. The gap closes to zero.

Someone who never stopped making them.
