Site Safety Plans for NYC DOB filing.
Site Safety Plan, Tenant Protection Plan, and TPPN preparation and filing for NYC Major Buildings. Same firm that writes your plan can enforce it on site. No translation losses.
A Site Safety Plan is the DOB-required document that lays out how a NYC Major Building will be built safely: perimeter protection, pedestrian routing, fall protection, fire safety, sequencing of major operations, emergency procedures. Without an approved plan, the project cannot pull permits or break ground. Our in-house team prepares, files, and revises Site Safety Plans for projects of every size and complexity.
"A Site Safety Plan shall be prepared, filed with the Department, and approved before the issuance of a permit for any Major Building, demolition, or designated alteration project."

Send DOB job number, address, and key project documents. We confirm the credential needed and quote a fixed weekly or hourly rate.
Manager assignment
We match your project to a licensed manager whose experience fits your scope and provide their license number and resume before they start.
Mobilization
Manager visits the site, reviews the approved Site Safety Plan, meets the GC superintendent, and confirms day-one logistics.

Final logbook delivered, sign-off on remaining DOB requirements, and the final invoice issued.
We frequently take over plans mid-project from another firm or revise approved plans when project scope changes.
A premium service, quoted per project.
Skilled Safety Management is a premium service. We don't publish standard rate cards because every NYC project has different scope, duration, shift requirements, and complexity factors that materially change the price. We provide a fixed-fee proposal within 24 hours of receiving your project documents.
Factors that affect a quote
- Project size, height, and DOB classification (Major Building, alteration, demolition)
- Project duration: months on the books drive total fee
- Shift requirements: night, weekend, 24-hour operations
- Dual credentials needed (SSM + CSM, SSM + F-89, etc.)
- Complexity and risk profile: adjacent to occupied buildings, transit, landmarks
- Geography: mobilization distance from our Brooklyn HQ
