What Types of Clients Does Lehe Planning, LLC Serve?

Lehe Planning, LLC serves municipal and county governments, local emergency management agencies and fire departments, nonprofits, and other clients. According to the firm's website, it has served these client types since its founding in October 2000. If your organization falls into one of those categories and you need planning or project management services, this firm's stated client base suggests a potential fit; if you are a private developer or a for-profit business outside those categories, the site does not list you among its typical clients.

Client Types Listed on the Website

The firm's homepage names four broad groups it has "successfully served":

The phrase "and other clients" leaves the door open to engagements beyond the four named categories, but the site does not describe who those other clients are or what work was done for them.

What the Client Mix Suggests About Fit

The listed clients share a common thread: they are public-sector or mission-driven organizations that typically need planning and project management support rather than ongoing in-house staff. That pattern is consistent with the firm's self-description as a provider of "quality professional planning and project management services through a personable approach."

If you are evaluating the firm for your own organization, the practical question is whether your project resembles the kind of work these clients would commission — for example, a comprehensive plan, a county planning study, an emergency management planning effort, or a nonprofit project with a defined scope. The website does not publish a service-by-service breakdown or case studies, so the client list is the main signal available on the page.

What the Page Does Not Say

A few things are absent from the available page content and should not be assumed:

• No pricing information. The page lists no fees, rates, or payment details.
• No project examples or references. Specific engagements, outcomes, or client testimonials are not shown.
• No geographic limits stated. The page does not say whether the firm works only in a particular state or region, even though its team leader's professional history is tied to Alabama APA chapter activity.
• No intake or eligibility rules. There is no stated minimum project size or client requirement.

How to Confirm Whether Your Organization Fits

Because the site gives a client list but not a service catalog, the most reliable next step is direct contact. The homepage includes a "Contact Us" link, which is the entry point the firm provides for inquiries. When you reach out, it helps to describe your organization type and the planning or project management need you have, so the firm can tell you whether it is a match.
