Find the work that fits your network.
Research active contractors before starting a conversation about your installer, dealer, or partner program.
Define the profile first
Start with the trade, service territory, project types, and level of observed activity that matter to your network. A clear recruitment profile makes permit research more useful than a broad directory download.
Review the evidence
Repeated relevant work can be a reason to research a business. It does not establish licensing, installation quality, insurance, capacity, or willingness to join a program. Those checks remain part of your qualification process.
A focused research workflow
Connect contractor accounts with relevant permit activity, preserve source context, and review potential relationships in your territory. Use the work behind a business to build a more informed recruitment process.
Dealer and installer recruitment, not hiring
This is channel recruitment: finding contractor businesses to carry your product line, join your installer network, or take on a dealer agreement. It is not employee hiring, staffing, or recruitment services. The research question is which companies already perform the relevant work in your territory, at what observed volume, and whether that makes them worth a partnership conversation.
Qualify before you approach
Repeated relevant work is a reason to look closer, not a qualification. Check the credential separately through the issuing state, confirm the branch actually serves the territory you care about, and establish who handles purchasing before a first conversation. Permit activity narrows the field; it does not close the loop.
