GreenLite automates construction permitting

Permitting is one of the most onerous parts of a construction project, taking place before a single shovel hits the ground. Between complex forms, dense language, and lengthy approval times, many grow to dread the entire permit process. GreenLite hopes to ease permitting woes with its easy-to-use platform. 

Calling itself a “high-speed connection between city agencies who review permit applications and the businesses that submit them,” GreenLite’s software offers an easy way to tackle permit submission and review services to help expedite applications, plus a handy dashboard to track and manage full portfolios for multiple permits and multiple projects. GreenLite also provides transparency into the permitting process, letting users check on the status of their application, any updates, and insight into what roadblocks are preventing permit approval. This visibility allows companies to accurately forecast project completion dates and avoid being dragged into the domino effect of bumped deadlines.

A simpler permitting process is a win because of how much time it can save, but it may save money, too. GreenLite’s website states that construction delays due to permitting issues cost the US construction industry over 40 billion dollars annually. It also claims that while standard permit turnaround times can be upwards of 90 days, GreenLite’s X-lane plan review services can get the job done in just 15-20.

Founded in April of 2022, GreenLite’s seamless permit software has attracted big-name clients, including fast-food giants like Chipotle, Chick-Fil-A, and Domino’s Pizza and commercial real estate firm Cushman & Wakefield.
