Feasibility and budget come before design is frozen. This is where a bad allowance or a wrong use gets caught.
Design and engineering produce the set that will be permitted.
Permit review and bidding or negotiation can overlap. Long-lead equipment should be identified here.
Construction follows the permit. Inspections happen during the work, not only at the end.
Certificate of occupancy, or the city’s equivalent closeout for an interior, is the end of the building department path. An interior build-out is usually shorter than a new building once the lease and the design are set.
No week count is stated here. The space and the reviewing city set the time.
Costs and timelines vary by building, finish level, and scope. Request an estimate for project-specific figures.
