For structural, civil and MEP engineers
New business leads for structural, civil and MEP engineers in Portland & Vancouver, WA
Engineers are hired during design, so by the time a permit is drawn the team is usually set. The records that come earlier are the ones to watch: a pre-application conference, where an owner meets the county about a site before design is done and civil questions about grading, stormwater and access are first raised; a demolition permit, which clears a site for a new building; and a new-building permit, which can still bring commissioning, special inspections and tenant work.
Launch Lookout pulls Clark County pre-application conferences and demolition and new-building permits from Portland Permitting & Development, Clark County and the City of Vancouver every day, and maps them around your office.
Pre-apps name the applicant and describe the project, so a civil firm can see a site that needs a stormwater plan and a structural firm can see a building type it knows. Demolitions in built-up areas usually mean infill. A short note that mentions the specific site reaches the owner while the design team is still being assembled.

Questions
- Which records matter most for engineers?
- Clark County pre-application conferences first, then demolition permits. Both come before design is finished.
- Are build-out permits included?
- They are on the map in your account, mostly to see what is being built where. On those, an engineer has usually already been chosen.
- Which cities are covered?
- Pre-apps come from Clark County; demolitions and new buildings from the City of Portland, Clark County and the City of Vancouver.
