Transect, a provider of environmental due diligence and permitting intelligence software for infrastructure development, today announced it will present its permitting software at the Permitting Innovators Expo, an invitation-only event sponsored by the White House Council on Environmental Quality, on July 31 in Arlington, Virginia.
The Permitting Innovators Expo brings together selected technology companies to demonstrate solutions that can help modernize federal environmental reviews and permitting. Attendees include federal agencies and policymakers exploring technologies that can improve permitting processes for critical infrastructure projects, such as energy generation and data centers.
“Infrastructure developers need to understand permitting requirements as early as possible because permitting risk affects project schedules, capital allocation, and site viability,” said Robin Laine, CEO of Transect. “We’re excited to demonstrate how Transect helps agencies and developers make more informed siting decisions by providing access to detailed permitting information before significant time and capital is invested.”
Permitting is one of the primary factors influencing the cost, timeline, and feasibility of infrastructure projects. Project developers must understand permitting requirements before acquiring land or committing capital because regulations vary significantly by project type, size, location, and multiple other factors.
Permitting has long been a core capability of the Transect platform. Its Permit Matrix identifies the federal, state, and local permits that apply to a proposed project site and provides key information, including regulatory triggers, review timelines, agency resources, and recommended next steps. This enables developers to better evaluate permitting complexity, project timelines, and development risk before committing to a site.
Transect also offers Risk Monitor, which notifies users when permitting requirements affecting a project site change over time. By tracking regulatory updates throughout the development lifecycle, Risk Monitor helps teams stay informed and adapt as permitting conditions evolve.
A distinguishing feature of Transect’s permitting data is its expert review process. Transect combines technology with oversight from an internal team of environmental and permitting specialists who review, curate, and continuously update permitting information. This expert-in-the-loop approach is designed to help maintain high data quality while expanding the depth and coverage of the platform over time.
