Survey Production Support

Buried in survey work? Send us the job.

Total Boundary Solutions helps land surveying firms clear backlog with deed research, CAD drafting, job setup, and white-label production support—without the cost or commitment of another full-time employee.

Confidentiality Comes First

Your clients stay your clients.

TBS works quietly behind the scenes as an extension of your office. Your client relationships, pricing, project files, and internal workflows stay private.

We do not solicit your clients, publish who we work with, or use your projects to market ourselves without permission.

Confidential by Default

We do not disclose the firms we support, the projects we assist on, or information shared with us.

No Client Solicitation

We will not contact, market to, or pursue your clients using information obtained through your projects.

No Public Client List

Your firm name, project names, drawings, or testimonials are never published without your express permission.

Your Firm Stays in Control

You retain the client relationship, project management, professional review, and final delivery.

Your Files Stay Private

CAD files, deeds, field data, title material, surveys, and client information are used only for the requested work.

NDA Available

We are happy to execute a confidentiality or non-disclosure agreement before receiving project information.

Project Intake

Send us the project. We'll adapt to your office.

TBS is built to work inside your existing production system. On your first assignment, we learn how your office drafts. After that, sending overflow work becomes much simpler.

1

Your Office Standards — first project only

Help us make the drawing look like it came directly from your office.

  • CAD template (.DWT or .DWG) and company title block
  • Layer standards, blocks, symbols, fonts, text styles and plotting standards
  • Standard notes, certifications, legends and disclaimers
  • One or two completed surveys that represent your preferred drafting style
2

Project Information

Give us enough context to understand the assignment and your expectations.

  • Property address, municipality, county and parcel information
  • Your internal job number and project type
  • Requested turnaround
  • Any special drafting, research or production instructions
3

Record Documents

Send whatever is already available. If research is part of our scope, tell us what you want us to obtain.

  • Subject and adjoining deeds
  • Filed maps, prior surveys and tax maps
  • Title reports, easements and legal descriptions
  • Other relevant municipal, county or record documents
4

Field & CAD Files

For drafting work, send the production files that apply to the assignment.

  • Coordinate / point files and raw field data when needed
  • Field sketches, crew notes, photos and control information
  • Existing DWG files and calculations
  • Field-code or description keys when your office uses custom coding
5

Tell Us Where to Take It

You decide how much of the production process you want us to handle.

  • "Research and plot the deeds, import our field points, and prepare the survey using our template."
  • "Fieldwork is complete. Draft this to our office standards and send it back for PLS review."
  • "Clean up the CAD, finish annotation, and return a DWG plus review PDF."
6

What Comes Back

Deliverables are tailored to the assignment and agreed scope.

  • Editable DWG file
  • Review PDF
  • Supporting research documents obtained by TBS
  • Organized project files and notes identifying questions or conflicts for your review

We learn your office once.

TBS can maintain an internal production profile for your firm—your approved title block, CAD template, layers, symbols, fonts, plotting setup, standard notes, and drafting preferences. Future projects become faster and more consistent.

Your standards. Every job.
How It Works

Send work when you're slammed. Stop when you're not.

TBS is designed to feel like an extension of your office—not another vendor you have to manage.

1

Send the Project

Email or upload the field data, deeds, existing CAD, markups, title material, and any instructions you want us to follow.

2

We Build It

We complete the agreed research, setup, or drafting work using your standards wherever practical.

3

You Review & Deliver

Your licensed surveyor retains professional review and control. We provide production support behind the scenes.

Who We Help

Built for surveying firms that have more work than time.

TBS is most useful when hiring another employee doesn't make sense—but the backlog still has to move.

A good fit if...

  • Your drafting backlog keeps growing.
  • Your licensed surveyors are spending too much time on production work.
  • You occasionally need extra capacity but not another full-time employee.
  • You have older projects that need record research or CAD cleanup.
  • You want a reliable overflow resource you can use job-by-job.

Why firms use TBS

  • No payroll taxes, benefits, recruiting, or permanent overhead.
  • No monthly retainer required for standard project work.
  • Scale production up during busy periods.
  • Keep your client relationship and final professional control.
  • Get experienced help without handing work to a generic drafting shop.
