Private Provider Program Benefits

Private Provider Services

Also known as “third party inspectors”. Private provider is an alternative to plan review and inspections in lieu of local building departments. This is allowed by Florida Statutes 553.791.

We can “fast track” your project by working directly with your design professional to avoid potential delays while obtaining a permit. Our team goes the extra mile to assist our clients with accelerating project completion. We eliminate the risk of liquidated damages and reduced profits arising from delays with plan review and inspections commonly experienced in the field.

Concurrently while the Private Provider reviews the Building Department portion, the local jurisdiction will need to review for Zoning, Public Works, Planning, D.E.RM, Fire, and any other local requirements. Ortus Engineering provides full coordination with these entities to obtain permits with a minimum number of review cycles.
