Built on the city record, not a replacement for it

From open-data lookup to a practical contractor lead desk.

The City portal remains the source of record. PermitWire keeps the original details visible, then adds the organization needed for a morning pass through relevant work.

Discovery should end in action

The permit becomes a workable sales record.

Lead Desk keeps the public permit facts and your private follow-up context in one place, so an opportunity does not disappear into an inbox or spreadsheet.

  • See overdue, due-today, and upcoming follow-ups
  • Keep your quote separate from the city-reported valuation
  • Preserve private contacts, notes, outcomes, and activity

Built for morning triage

City records become a short, workable lead list.

No portal hunting or spreadsheet cleanup. See what is new, why it matches, and whether it deserves a call.

01 · Observe

We watch all three city feeds.

Active, last-30-day, and under-inspection records are combined so fast-finaled permits and inspection-stage movement do not disappear between checks.

02 · Match

Your territory sets the signal.

Trade classification and ZIP watchlists reduce the morning feed to work your team can actually pursue.

03 · Act

Work the lead, not the inbox.

Review the dossier and map, schedule follow-up, record your quote, and keep the outcome attached to the opportunity.
