How Contractors Can Track Permit Status, Inspections, and Open Items

Track the permit number, jurisdiction, current status, approved documents, related trade permits, open city comments, fees, and the next required action.

The field team should be able to see which permit items can affect construction without searching through separate portals, emails, and documents.

Contractors already manage labor, materials, subcontractors, schedules, field conditions, inspections, and client communication. Permit administration should have its own clear owner and tracker.

Application items, city follow-up, plan review comments, revised documents, and resubmissions can then be routed to the right architect, engineer, contractor, owner, or other project contact.

Inspection records should show requests, results, failed items, reinspections, finals, and the responsible person for each correction.

This helps prevent inspection problems from remaining unresolved until the end of the job.

Before the project file is treated as complete, confirm final inspections, related permit status, certificates when required, and remaining Permit Closure items.

Clear Property Records can provide the ongoing permit coordination while the contractor manages construction responsibilities.
