Commercial Plan Review Fees
We frequently engage third-party plan reviewers to complete commercial plan reviews, in-whole or in-part. While we strive to ensure that our published plan review fees represent an accurate picture of the cost of a given plan review, we do not control the billing practices of our third-party reviewers. It is our policy to bill no less than the actual cost incurred for a plan review performed by a third-party.
