You Don't Have to Find Contractors Yourself

Finding the right contractor can be time-consuming.

That's where RMO Agency comes in.

We have been connecting licensed contractors and businesses since 2006. Rather than searching for potential opportunities on your own, we provide pre-screened prospects and help facilitate the introduction. Our team also assists with the licensing process and remains available after the license is issued.

You focus on the professional relationship. We help with the process.

We know there are other agencies offering to find you potential contractors, but none of them truly care about your license and the relationship with your new contractors like we do. 

Why Work With RMO Agency?

PRE-SCREENED OPPORTUNITIES

We don't simply send you every contractor who contacts us. We review prospective contractors before making introductions.

PROFESSIONAL INTRODUCTIONS

We help facilitate the introduction so you can determine whether the relationship is right for you.

YOU'RE IN CONTROL

You decide which contractors you are willing to work with. If a relationship isn't working, our team is available to help address the situation and determine the appropriate next steps.

ONGOING SUPPORT

You aren't left on your own after the license is issued. Our team continues to provide support, resources, and tools throughout your participation in the program.

A COMMUNITY OF CONTRACTORS

As an RMO, you become part of a community of licensed contractors. RMO Agency hosts opportunities for RMOs to connect, network, and share experiences with other professionals.

20+ YEARS OF EXPERIENCE

RMO Agency has been helping California contractors since 2006.

What Does an RMO Do?

RMO stands for Responsible Managing Officer.

An RMO is a licensed contractor who serves as the qualifying individual for up to 3 companies.

RMOs are able to serve as license qualifiers and supervisors in California due to certain clauses in the California Business and Professions Code (B&P Code §7065.1, and §7068.1 allow companies to forego the exams needed to get a Contractor’s License by hiring RMOs as supervising officers).

California law requires the qualifier to exercise the appropriate direct supervision and control over the construction operations for the company being qualified  

RMO Agency helps you understand your responsibilities and provides resources and support throughout the program.

Why Become an RMO?

How the RMO Program Works

1. Apply to Become an RMO

Complete our RMO application and provide your contractor license information, experience, location, and preferences.

2. Get matched With Qualified Contractors

We look for contractors who may be a good fit based on your location, classifications, and other requirements. You may be introduced to up to 3 potential contractors as allowed in CA.

3. You Choose Who You Work With

You have the opportunity to review and approve each contractor before moving forward. We believe an RMO relationship should be a real professional relationship not simply a name on a license.

4. Management of the Licensing Process

Once you and the contractor agree to work together, RMO Agency helps coordinate the CSLB licensing process and paperwork. We monitor the application and help keep the process moving.

5. Build a Professional Relationship

Once the license is issued, you and your contractor continue working together according to the requirements of the program and California law. You provide guidance, mentorship, supervision, and other agreed-upon support.

6. We Continue to Support You

Our relationship doesn't end when the license is issued. RMO Agency provides ongoing support, resources, and tools to help you maintain a successful relationship with your contractor.
