About the Founders
Jonah Joines and Tyler Awerkamp, founders of JT SWPPP, began their journey not in an office, but on the ground, engaged in construction cleanup. This hands-on experience provided us with firsthand insight into the daily challenges, tight schedules, and operational demands that general contractors face on every Utah construction site.
Our pivot into specialized Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plans (SWPPP) was driven by a direct, real-world need. A co-founder's father, a seasoned general contractor in St. George, Utah, sought reliable SWPPP support. We saw the complexities, the potential for costly SWPPP non-compliance, and the need for truly efficient stormwater solutions that resonated with a GC's perspective. This wasn't just another service to offer; it was a mission to solve a problem we understood and appreciated having potential to help GC’s and the environment.
This personal connection ignited our commitment. We became certified SWPPP experts, spending the last couple years mastering compliance regulations and best practices. However, even with our growing expertise, we recognized a persistent gap in the industry: traditional SWPPP inspection processes were often manual, prone to inconsistency, and could lead to unexpected costs and delays for busy general contractors.
This recognition led to our transformation. Today, JT SWPPP stands apart as a tech- forward SWPPP company, leveraging cutting-edge innovation to overcome these challenges. Our pioneering use of AI cameras on job sites to conduct and file SWPPP inspections is at the core of our solution. This technology fundamentally changes the game, making our inspection process significantly more reliable, inherently more cost-efficient, and ultimately less expensive for general contractors like you.
At the end of the day, we’re builders at heart. We match that hands-on experience with technology that actually makes a difference on site. We’re not just another vendor; we’re your compliance partner. We’ll get to know your project, make sure your inspections are handled correctly, and save you money in the process. Let us cover your back on SWPPP, so you can keep your project moving forward.
