Effectiveness in offices is not a matter of luck
Anna has seen to it since September 2017 that every case at Casacombug Urban Lobby moves forward without unnecessary delays. In 2023 alone, she led to the issuance of 34 positive development condition decisions for projects in Poznań. She knows every corridor in the office at Kolegiacki Square and knows exactly how to prepare documentation so an official has no grounds for sending it back for correction. For her, concrete facts on the table is the basis of every conversation with public administration.
Her work begins where others lose patience with procedures. The average time she obtains a substantive response from architecture departments is 19 business days, while the market norm often exceeds two months. Anna makes sure every attachment is in its place, because at Casacombug Urban Lobby we know that the paperwork must be correct from the first application submission. No unnecessary moves and no looking for someone to blame – we simply deliver results.
What does Anna do daily in your project?
- Checks the completeness of 43 different types of attachments for urban applications to avoid requests for supplements.
- Conducts direct consultations with inspectors in key departments of the Poznań City Hall and surrounding municipalities.
- Reports project progress every 8 business days, giving the investor a clear picture of the situation on the desk.
- Analyzes risks in MPZP projects even before their official display for public viewing.
Before joining our team, Anna worked for 6 years in the legal department of a development company building 127 units a year. That is where she learned that time is money, and an error in one document can halt construction for half a year. Today she uses that knowledge to protect our clients' schedules. We know these procedures inside out, therefore Anna doesn't waste time on guesses, she just calls where necessary right away.
To be honest, we don't promise miracles in one day, because offices have their own rhythm and their own rules. We guarantee, however, that Anna will not miss any deadline resulting from the code of administrative procedure. In 96.4% of cases handled by her in the last quarter, decisions were made according to the original plan, without the need for writing reminders to the SKO.
If your investment is stuck at the agreement stage, Anna will check the real status of the case within 48 hours. Without beating around the bush, she will say if the error lies in the design or in official slowness. P.S. Usually one concrete talk in the department is enough to get the folder moving.
