Sounds like a pretty typical setup.
Depending on your layout, you may be able to use a templating type system for
the pages as well. It's hard to tell if that's useful without more
information.
/tmpl/<companyid>/index.php
Not sure if that's what you meant by using the company name or if you were
going to do something like "company30" "company50" and such.
Lots of different ways to do what you're talking about, but sounds like
you're in the right path.
