How do you submit architect plans for landlord review?
Hi guys,

     I’m on the tenant side, helping coordinate post lease signing stuff such as coordinating the plans review between the GC, architect and landlord. I use emails to submit plans for landlord approval, but often I find it difficult to get different parties answer questions on time (architect, landlord, GC) and you know how time sensitive things could get these days. Is there a better way to do this plan review process? Do you use some type of project management tool or communication tool for this?

If so, submit the plans to them and they will submit them to the appropriate party, whether it be the listing broker, the management company or the landlord directly.

You're managing an external team which is tricky since none of these people actually work for you. A program like Microsoft project might help. But... You would just be using that internally and would somehow need buy in from the GC, LL, and arch. \n\nI use emails, phone calls, and spreadsheets mostly to track progress. It takes an incredible amount of effort and persistence to keep folks in line and moving forward.

The deal maker is likely compensated based on your tenants rent commencement so they are incentivized to push  the deal forward as quickly as possible.  Also most leases have a turnaround time for landlord review (or at least they should).   Referencing this when submitting your plans is a good reminder that the clock has started on this deadline.", "replies": [], "depth": 1}, {"id": "hrcvltg", "text": "With external parties?
