All in Bloom, Wheeling: a florist's first storefront, opened on schedule

An online flower business opened its first retail store in Wheeling on its target date. The Business License, Sign Permit and Building and Fire inspections were coordinated fully remotely.

In short

An online flower business opened its first retail store in Wheeling on its target date. The Business License, Sign Permit and Building and Fire inspections were coordinated fully remotely.

Project overview

After running an online flower business, the client decided to open a first retail storefront. The lease was already signed and the opening date was set.

Key challenge

The opening date was fixed. Licensing, village paperwork, inspections and the sign approval had to run in parallel, or the launch would slip.

Our role

We managed the approval process remotely:

  • preparing and coordinating the Business License application
  • communication with village departments
  • collecting the required information from the property owner
  • coordination with the sign contractor
  • help with the Sign Permit
  • scheduling and coordinating Building and Fire inspections
  • project management through final municipal approval

Outcome

The Business License and the Sign Permit came through in time. The store passed its Building and Fire inspections and opened on schedule.
