professional plan -check review and inspection services; and

and does not have the required Licensed Structural, Electrical, Plumbing and
Mechanical Engineers to perform complete plan -check services in- house; and

Professional Engineers and create a new plan -check division at this time, because the

collectively ( "Plan Check Consultants ") will complete the plan -check process, in a more
efficient and effective manner; and
