What the work is in Lichfield
Application types in Lichfield
Who you can contact in Lichfield
76% of Lichfield leads name an agent, architect or planning consultant on the public record, and Strukta links each one to the company behind it. That is who to approach: they are appointed early, they know the budget and programme, and they are usually the person choosing which trades get asked to price. The rest name only the applicant, which still tells you who owns the scheme and where it is.
Turning a Lichfield application into work
Get in before the shortlist exists
An application in Lichfield is typically submitted weeks or months before anyone prices the work. Approach the named agent at validation and you are a known name when the team is picked, rather than a cold email arriving alongside twenty others after the decision notice.
Approach the agent, not the applicant
76% of Lichfield records name an agent, architect or planning consultant. They are appointed early, they know the budget and the programme, and on most schemes they decide which trades get asked to price. The applicant owns the scheme but often has not thought about subcontractors yet.
Filter to the work you actually want
29 leads is more than anyone can chase. Set your trade, the sizes of job worth your time, and how far you travel, and Lichfield narrows to the handful that fit. The rest stay searchable without filling your inbox.
Watch the neighbouring boroughs too
Most firms working in Lichfield also price work next door. Coverage runs across every UK council, so widening your patch is a filter change rather than another subscription.

Frequently asked questions
How many construction leads are there in Lichfield?
Strukta is tracking 29 live construction leads in Lichfield, in Midlands, each one a planning application for work someone intends to build. The figure updates every day as new applications are validated.
What information does Strukta show for Lichfield projects?
For each Lichfield project you get the sector, planning stage, key dates and the agent or applicant on the record, linked to the companies and contacts behind it and back to the public planning portal.
Can I track new Lichfield planning applications automatically?
Yes. Save Lichfield as a search, set your trade and stages, and Strukta surfaces new and updated matches in your daily inbox and weekly digest.
How does Strukta help me act on Lichfield leads?
Strukta ranks the live records that match your trade and patch, links them to the companies and contacts behind the work, adds Researcher briefs where you need more context, and gives you saved records, notes and next actions to keep follow-up moving.
Are Lichfield planning applications already approved?
Mostly not, and that is the point. The large majority of live records in Lichfield are at an early planning stage, which means the scheme is real and being prepared but the work has not been let yet. That is the window where a trade can get in front of the agent before a shortlist exists. If you would rather wait for certainty, filter to decided applications instead and take the smaller, later, more contested list.
When is the right time to contact someone about a Lichfield application?
Sooner than most trades do. An application is usually submitted weeks or months before anyone prices the work, so contacting the agent at validation puts you in the conversation while the team is still being chosen. Waiting for a decision notice means arriving at the same moment as everyone else who watched the same portal.
Is this different from searching the Lichfield planning portal myself?
The portal is the source and it is free, so the honest answer is that you can do this by hand. The difference is what happens after you find something: Strukta covers Lichfield alongside every other council you work in, ranks what fits your trade instead of listing everything, links each record to the companies and contacts behind it, and tells you when something new appears rather than waiting for you to check. If you only ever work in one borough and enjoy the search, the portal is enough.
Do I get contact details for Lichfield leads?
You get whoever is named on the public record, which is usually the agent, architect or planning consultant, linked to the company behind them. Not every application names someone, and Strukta shows you which do before you spend time on them. Direct emails and phone numbers are revealed per contact from your plan's monthly allowance, so you are never paying for details you did not ask for.
Does Strukta cover tenders in Lichfield too?
Yes. Public tenders from Contracts Finder and Find a Tender sit alongside the planning records, so a Lichfield school refurbishment shows up whether it arrives as a planning application or as a published contract notice. Both feed the same inbox, ranked against the same trade profile.
