I am a licensed engineer in TN and several other states. My firm in a consulting only firm and we provide fire protection design intent drawings on a daily basis. I have been contacted by a contractor, that I do not know, to fill a position in a new division they are trying to start. They have apparently been in the business for several years doing fire protection related work, but no installation. They are trying to get a contractors license to do small repair work. TN requires them to have a registered architect, engineer or someone with a NICET certification on staff. I have read all I can find about this position, which is not much, but would like some other opinions. This would not replace my current job. It is not required I be in their office frequently (according to this contractor), but I’m not entirely sure of what my responsibilities would be. TN says my name and number would be on service and red tags. Does this mean I have to inspect any work they do? I do not want to jeopardize my license or my relationships with local contractors. I also, obviously, want this to be worth my time ($$$). Any opinions?
