Volume 2 | Issue 10: DOB NOW: BUILD (Continued)

DOB NOW continues to expand its incorporation of permit filings. It now includes electrical and elevator filings to commence December 4, 2017. 

It will be MANDATORY to submit electrical and elevator filings in DOB NOW: Build.  

Also MANDATORY is the registration of all stakeholders in order to use the system. Owners, applicants of record, inspectors and contractors MUST BE REGISTERED in order to use the system. 

This new launch follows the recent rollout of DOB NOW: Build for sidewalk shed, supported scaffold, fence, curb cuts, façade repair and sign job filings.

The eFiling Registration Form is the portal to register for DOB NOW: Build, however because of the limitations of the system at the present time, we recommend working with RPO to develop a strategy for registration so we can best assist you with the filings that require stakeholder involvement as well as the maintenance of the required on-line accounts. 

After registering for an account in eFiling, stakeholders will then be able to use DOB NOW: Build. 

As part of its service offerings, RPO can provide assistant with the registration process as well as maintenance of the REQUIRED online accounts. Please contact our office if you would like assistance with this process.
