AIVG Holdings pitches VELMAND to Florida counties before HB 803 deadlines hit

By AI, Created 23:47 UTC, Sep 11, 2026, AGP -

AIVG Holdings is inviting Florida building departments to evaluate its VELMAND permitting and code-enforcement platform as House Bill 803 imposes new statutory decision deadlines. The company says counties can review a prepared document package and live system demo now, with private briefings available as Florida agencies face tighter permit-processing clocks.

Why it matters: - Florida counties are under new pressure to process permits faster under HB 803. - AIVG Holdings is trying to position VELMAND as a ready-made tool for those deadlines. - The pitch matters because the state’s new rules could affect permit revenue if departments miss required timelines. - Counties outside Florida may also see the platform as relevant because public solicitations are already asking for similar automation, auditability and fee-management features.

What happened: - AIVG Holdings began inviting Florida building departments on Sept. 11, 2026, to evaluate VELMAND, its permitting and code-enforcement platform. - The company said the research and documentation a county needs are already prepared and waiting. - The invitations are aimed at Florida counties, even though VELMAND is available nationwide. - AIVG Holdings said the platform is available now, but no county is yet in production on it. - The company is scheduling private briefings for building officials, county administrators and commissioners. - Interested officials can request briefings at velmand.com or by emailing info@velmand.com.

The details: - HB 803 includes statutory decision deadlines as short as five business days. - The law also introduces a uniform digital application arriving in 2027. - A department that misses a deadline risks losing permit revenue automatically. - All of Florida’s county building departments face the same clock at once. - AIVG Holdings prepared due diligence documents before sending formal evaluation invitations. - The private, encrypted portal includes a clause-by-clause overview of HB 803 tied to the specific mechanism VELMAND provides. - The portal also includes a security and data-governance summary. - The portal includes a data-location and continuity disclosure. - The portal includes a sole-source justification. - The portal includes the pricing and licensing model. - The portal includes a sample cooperative-purchasing agreement. - The same portal includes a recorded walkthrough of a permit run from application to decision on the live system. - AIVG Holdings said counties in other states are already writing requirements into their own bids. - In one Washington State county, a 2026 request for proposals asks for a configurable fee engine and a complete, immutable audit trail of who did what, when and why, with no programming needed from the vendor. - The company said VELMAND was built to meet those emerging requirements and that those features are available today.

Between the lines: - Angela Irizarry, founder of AIVG Holdings, is framing the company’s approach as procurement-first rather than sales-first. - The strategy appears designed to reduce evaluation friction by giving counties documentation before they ask for a demo. - The company is also trying to show that VELMAND aligns with government purchasing and compliance requirements, not just workflow features. - The emphasis on immutable audit trails, data governance and cooperative purchasing suggests the product is being positioned for public-sector scrutiny.

What's next: - Florida counties can review the materials and decide whether to schedule a private briefing. - AIVG Holdings expects to demonstrate the platform against each county’s specific requirements. - The company is preparing for wider adoption as Florida’s 2027 digital application changes approach. - Counties elsewhere may continue writing similar requirements into solicitations, which could broaden the market for VELMAND.
