Lift Planning Services, LLC is a full-service consulting firm dedicated to providing comprehensive high-quality lift plans and rigging design. Our goal is to assist our customers with lift planning, and through that process to achieve our mission – to elevate crane and rigging safety through planning, guidance, and engineering. 

Lift planning services started in 2015 as a sole proprietorship by Brandon Horne to improve upon lift planning practices and to assist crane companies with their lift plans. These simple ideas have now grown into a full-service consulting firm that specializes in lift planning, with a focus on assisting small to medium sized crane companies. Lift Planning Services, LLC was officially started in 2021 to provide our services to a broader range of customers and industries.

Brandon is a Virginia Tech Civil Engineering Graduate and has more than 26 years of experience in the construction industry with nearly two decades of that time specifically focused on the crane and rigging business. Brandon holds multiple National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO) certifications for Mobile and Tower Crane Lift Director as well as Rigger I & II. His experience ranges from road & bridge construction to mechanical and electrical construction project management.
