What was done

  • Added "Engineering" and "Architecture" to the RelationshipStat.type union in src/data/bailey-stats.ts. Total union size: 9.
  • Reclassified 6 entries that had previously been catch-all Planning:
    • Engineering (3): NV5 (formerly WH Pacific) — 39, CK Engineering, PC — 28, Hubble Engineering, Inc. — 12
    • Architecture (3): Jensen-Belts Associates, PLLC — 186, South Landscape Architecture, P.C. — 31, South Beck and Baird Landscape Architecture — 25
  • Planning now reads as land-planning consultancies specifically: Kent Brown Planning Services LLC (529), Gem State Planning LLC (111), SLN Planning LLC (45), Land Consultants Inc. (20), Tall Timber Consulting LLC (22), RMR Consulting Inc. (16), Suggs Community Solutions LLC (12), Highmark Consultant Company LLC (10) — 8 entries.
  • Updated the data file’s type-assignment comment block to document the split and the rationale for rolling landscape architecture into Architecture (rather than creating a separate Landscape type) for the small case count.

Why

Ryan reviewed the previous “everything goes into Planning” judgment call and asked for the split. Engineering firms and architecture firms are distinct disciplines on a partner roster — collapsing them under “Planning” misrepresented the relationship for any reader scanning by type.
