Expediting

Honed after more than 40 years of experience, clients rely on HLZAE’s knowledge of the New York City Department of Buildings to navigate the intricacies of municipal requirements and secure project approval.

Working with the applicant of record and the client, our expediting team creates a filing strategy that considers client requirements, scheduling constraints, and budgetary concerns. We offer the resources and know-how of a large firm and the personal attention of a small firm.

We are experienced with all types of filings: Interior, Exterior, Structural, Mechanical, Plumbing, Fire Alarm – and are familiar with the requirements of municipal agencies regarding each one. We also provide consultation on building and zoning code issues, assist contractors with obtaining permits, and handle violations research and dismissal. From interior renovations to large-scale projects with multiple filings, HLZAE will expertly and expeditiously manage the filing process from inception to approval to sign-off.

Consider Energy Costs From the Start

A majority of a building’s lifetime energy costs are determined by early design and system decisions. Energy auditing and analysis give project teams the data they need to make smarter choices to help reduce operational spend, improve performance, and avoid costly corrections later.
