From Kitchen to Boardroom Table Part 2

If you can run a house, you can run a business. The challenge is recognizing what should be managed by a 3rd-party or supported by technology.

If you can run a house, you can run a business. Remember, the challenge isn’t capability. What might be better off managed by a third-party or supported with a technology solution? Let’s talk about you and how you apply a kitchen-table decision to the boardroom. Who are you? What do you want ? What do you know? Your Skills & What You Know You prioritize under pressure At home, you make dozens of decisions with limited time, limited resources, and competing needs. That is executive decision-making. You manage trade-offs You already know you can’t have everything at once. That is budgeting, strategy, and focus. You handle conflict People want different things and you’ve learned how to calm, negotiate, set boundaries, and repair relationships. That is leadership. You build routines and systems Meals, schedules, errands, chores, appointments are systems like day-to-day business operations. You plan for the unexpected You’ve ever dealt with flat tires, broken appliances, or an emergency, so you understand contingency planning. As a business leader, what does all of this mean to you?It means that you are not starting from scratch because you already have the experience! Your Goals & What You Want Are you pursuing more freedom, more income, more control, or maybe a legacy to pass on? Check out the kitchen table checklist ➡ In as few words as possible, write down what you want. This is the beginning of your business plan or an initial guide to your operations. What problem do I want to solve? Who specifically do I want to help? What do I want to be known for? What am I willing to do that others won’t? What am I not willing to do? What does “success” mean in year 1, 2, 3?

Like running a home, business operators succeed when they don't get slowed down by details that are essential, time-sensitive, unforgiving. Permits/Licenses fall into that category.

If you are building a business from the ground up or acquiring an existing one, business is demanding, intimidating, challenging, and rewarding all at once. It requires time, attention, and commitment well beyond regular hours. Multiple people, processes, and priorities operate both together and independently, which can feel overwhelming, and you will quickly discover there is much to learn or that there are things you didn’t even realize you needed to know. Despite these challenges, few opportunities are as rewarding, offering the chance to transform your experience, vision, and values into something tangible and lasting. This may sound overwhelming. If you are already in it, you might be here because you face uncertainty, are frustrated or maybe feeling intimidated. That’s not weakness! It’s a sign of readiness. You are more prepared than you may realize! Running a home mirrors running a business more closely than most people realize. One of the quiet realities of both homes and businesses is compliance whereby management of requirements and renewal must be handled correctly without fail. At home, we rarely think twice about outsourcing certain responsibilities like tax prep, insurance, repairs, technology help, etc. It’s not that we can’t do them but that our time and risk tolerance are limited. The same principle applies to business operations and managing permits or licenses. This “Invisible Operations Department” sits at the intersection of every aspect or department of your business. When managed well, they are almost unnoticeable but they are immediately disruptive when they are not. Just like missing an insurance renewal at home or ignoring a vehicle inspection, lapses in permits and licenses don’t announce themselves politely.

PermitPROS is proud to announce that we have engaged with Mambo Seafood Restaurants, marking an exciting milestone in our growth and continued leadership in permitting, compliance, and operational support services. As a beloved and fast-growing restaurant brand in Texas known for its vibrant dining experience and strong community presence, Mambo Seafood needed a permitting partner capable of supporting its expansion with efficiency and expertise. PermitPROS is honored to meet that need. We’re bringing proven processes, dedicated client support, and industry-leading knowledge to ensure their growth progresses at a stead clip and day-to-day operations run smoothly at all locations. In hospitality, most restaurants, depending on size, average over a dozen major operational licenses. Add in variables like special features in the operation or alcohol service, and staff certifications and the number continues to climb. When a restaurant is trying to grow or run the leanest ship possible, it’s a job on its own to keep up with all the permits and variables for multiple locations. Challenges with licensing / permits for restaurants in Texas: - Regulatory Complexity in Cities & Counties - Time Usage by Staff - Speed-to-Market - Fines, Shutdowns, and Compliance Risks - Scaling Into New Markets - Cost Efficiency Compared to Hiring In-House - Professional Handling of Complex Situations Licensing and permitting is complex, time-intensive, and high-risk across multiple jurisdictions. PermitPROS allows restaurant brands to expand faster, safer, and more cost-effectively. Our comprehensive range of permitting and compliance services can enable restaurant concepts to stay focused on delivering exceptional dining experiences while expanding into new markets. You can rely on our reputation as a trusted provider for top brands seeking clarity, reliability, and consistent results.

If you manage a large organization with roles reliant on keeping personnel licenses, permits, and compliance up-to-date, here is a Compliance Guide for Critical Roles.

www.permitpros.com/compliance/licenses-assignments-compliance-guide/

#compliance #permits #licenses
Manage Role Classifications Responsible Departments: Compliance & Human Resources - HR sends job descriptions for review to the compliance team - Compliance determines if the role requires: - A professional license (e.g., RN, CDL, CPA, etc.) - Certifications or registrations (e.g., OSHA-10, Series 7) - Jurisdictional requirements (e.g., state-by-state licensure) When managed correctly, Human Resources and the compliance team will develop a Licensing Requirement Matrix for all critical roles. Assign License Verification Responsible Departments: Human Resources with Support from Compliance - HR submits proposed candidate/employee name(s) to Compliance for license verification. - Compliance checks and/or verifies: License status (active/inactive), Jurisdiction coverage, Expiration date, Disciplinary history (if relevant) This can be accomplished in 5-10 business days to produce a roster for operations listing licenses or permits that have been verified and confirmed. Approval to Assign from Regulators Responsible Team: Compliance No assignment of staff to an operational role may proceed without clearance from compliance team, which means: (1) If license/permit are valid, compliance team notifies operations of their clearance for assignment or (2) If license/permit is not valid, compliance team flags for follow-up with human resources. Management of Licenses or Permits Responsible Departments: Compliance with Help from HR - Compliance maintains a License Tracking System with automated alerts. - Human Resources is notified: No less than 60 days before license expiration, If a license is suspended or revoked Human Resources and Operations must remove or reassign the employee until resolved.

Avoid Setbacks Due to Staff Licenses/Permits

PermitPROS can provide hands-on support.

Manage Staffing Permits & Operational Licenses PermitPROS can provide incredibly valuable hands-on support to adjust staffing assignments or replace staff for companies in highly regulated industries like healthcare, construction, logistics, finance, or energy. As specialists who manage operational licenses for a diverse field of clients, PermitPROS supports regulatory staff, compliance officers, or executives by overseeing licensing or designing solutions. Ensure Qualified Personnel for Licensed Operations Prevent legal or regulatory violations due to unqualified staffing. For example, in healthcare, only nurses with an active state license can be assigned to patient care. PermitPROS can verify their credentials before onboarding to ensure that only properly credentialed staff are assigned to roles that require specific certifications or licenses. Monitor License Expiration and Renewal PermitPROS is in the field every day and can serve to prevent operational disruptions due to lapsed credentials by maintaining your license tracking, expiry dates and trigger prompt renewals. We ensure uninterrupted operations and valid staff assignments. For example, if an employee’s commercial driver’s license (CDL) is set to expire soon, PermitPROS license management service can flag them so that the employee is not assigned a route that requires that specific license. Advise on Staffing Strategy Based on Regulatory Needs When a financial firm wants to expand its advisory services, PermitPROS can work to ensure that only registered representatives (e.g. Series 7 or similar credentials) are assigned to client-facing roles. Our license management service can enables your strategic growth without compliance risk by informing HR and operations on staffing decisions that are aligned with your regulatory obligations.
