Why Concho Development Services?

We represent owners, developers, builders, engineers, architects, and property owners in navigating municipal review processes efficiently and successfully. Our founders wrote the playbook — now they work for you.

What sets us apart:

  • Insider Expertise. Our team served in the very departments that review your projects. We understand the process from the inside out — what reviewers look for, what causes delays, and how to structure approvals efficiently.
  • Single Point of Contact. Instead of juggling multiple departments, work with one team that coordinates across Planning, Engineering, Fire Marshal, Health, Inspection Services, and Utilities on your behalf.
  • Risk Mitigation. We conduct compliance gap analysis before submission, minimizing costly change orders and reducing the risk of project delays, incomplete submissions, and frustrating back-and-forth.
  • Results-Driven. From permit application to certificate of occupancy, we manage the entire process with a focus on keeping your project on timeline and on budget.
