Home/How it works
DA Intel turns the scattered public record of every new NSW development into a simple feed of the jobs that are actually yours. Here’s the whole thing, end to end.
Pick the trades you do: electrician, plumber, roofer, chippie, whatever it is. Then choose the councils you cover. It takes a minute, and you can change it any time as your work shifts. No two setups are the same, and yours only ever surfaces work that fits it.
The moment a development application is lodged with any of the 128 councils, we read it. An enrichment engine works out which trades that project is going to need, based on what’s being built, so a two-storey dwelling and a warehouse fit-out don’t reach the same people.
When a genuinely-recent DA needs your trade in your area, it arrives by email and SMS with the full context: address, council, DA reference, project and likely value. There’s still time to get your quote in ahead of the pack, and every alert carries the DA reference so you can verify it yourself.
What a signal looks like
Illustrative example, not a real alert.
What you get
An enrichment engine reads each development and works out which trades it needs, so you only hear about work that’s relevant to you.
No stale backlog. Alerts fire on freshly-lodged DAs, so you’re quoting live opportunities instead of chasing jobs that are already done.
Filtered to the councils you actually work. No noise from the other side of the state, just your area.
You hear when the DA is lodged, not when the build is finished. First to know is first to quote.
