PLANET Computer System
Request Additional Information
Our proprietary software has been developed to meet the needs of our clients by providing an electronic archival of all permits and approved drawings as well as other valuable and current information about their buildings with just a few clicks of a mouse. PLANET is a multi-tiered system that combines several proprietary software packages designed to align Brookbridge with the needs of our clients. This “up-to-the-minute” information is invaluable when considering acquisitions, during scheduled and unscheduled inspections and determining the status of violations and construction projects at your facilities. Since this is a web-based application, access to the system is available at your convenience with an active username and password. Staying informed about your building(s) and project(s) with the most current information available is critical in maintaining a safe and efficient environment. Please contact us for more information or to set up a demonstration.

Brookbridge offers a complete line of filing services for all phases of alteration work, such as interior alterations, structural modifications, mechanical installations, sprinklers, landmarks, asbestos, and any other required regulatory agency protocol.
Compliance Consulting

Brookbridge offers expert code consulting services. Their services are especially beneficial during the conceptual design process. They can provide all concerned parties with the necessary information required to proceed in a timely and code compliant manner.
Acquisitions and Due Diligence Reports
Request Additional Information
Brookbridge's team of experts can assist in the acquisition and due diligence process by performing an in-depth operational and code-compliance review of the properties in question. This service can prove to be invaluable in determining whether escrow funds must be established to remedy any violations that currently exist or have the potential to be cited.
Certificate of Occupancy (New or Amended)
Request Additional Information
As tenants' needs change consistent with their business, amendments to the Certificate of Occupancy may become necessary. Brookbridge can identify the often complicated and confusing restrictions and time constraints that exist when such alterations occur.
Inspection and Sign-Off Services
Request Additional Information
Brookbridge arranges the necessary inspections to sign-off and close out the complicated and often confusing construction application process. Full documentation is provided to our clients to ensure compliance with all applicable regulations. Our staff will ensure that all work is completed in accordance with the client's needs and that plans are filed with the appropriate agencies.
Violation Research and Removal
Request Additional Information
Brookbridge offers clients a pro-active violation search and removal process management plan. This search is extremely beneficial to the extent that the Certificate of Occupancy cannot be amended or issued until all life safety violations are remedied and dismissed. In addition by maintaining a violation “free” property, leasing, management and refinancing projects can proceed in a most expeditious manner.
New York Zoning Analysis
Request Additional Information
Brookbridge can provide an initial zoning review and analysis for your project. The company's analysis consists of all permitted uses, zoning and community board hearings, presentations and, if applicable, landmark status. Brookbridge can guide its clients from the initial application for a new building construction permit to the final issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy.
