Direct Answer

What is a Florida private provider?

A Florida private provider is a licensed professional you hire under F.S. 553.791 for plan review and building code inspections instead of waiting on the building department. FCC reviews plans (24-hour single-family average) and runs live and offline virtual inspections. You still file the permit and NTBO; zoning, fire, and similar inspections stay with the jurisdiction.
