Approach
Alkemi brings a unique, team-based delivery model that has been refined and customized in partnership with local governments to account for the nuances of the City development process. Our Planners have managed every aspect of the project life cycle, from initial screen-check review through project approval and final case close-out. We understand how to access necessary City resources, research previous project approvals, and tap into relevant institutional knowledge. Alkemi is comfortable collaborating across departments and agencies to build consensus and achieve the best possible solutions for our clients and communities.
