Capital Planning & Asset Management

With today’s ever-tightening budgets, facility managers need to do more with less. Pinchin can give you the facts on the most cost-effective strategy to manage building maintenance today and for the future. A Building Condition Assessment is a smart way to maximize building life and reduce repair and maintenance costs

Building Condition Assessment (BCA) includes:

• Inspection of building envelope, interior finishes, mechanical and electrical systems, and accessible structural components.
• Assessment of fire and life safety systems and exterior site features such as walkways, parking, and landscaping.
• Written and photographic documentation of each component together with observed deficiencies.
• Review of general documentation on repair and maintenance histories.
• Interviews with facilities and maintenance staff.
• A formal written report including observed deficiencies, estimated lifespan of building elements and systems, and a list of recommendations for repair or replacement with estimated costs.

Pinchin’s BCA services can be enhanced with a Reserve Fund Study, to help our clients develop long-term capital budget planning of expenditures for major repairs or replacements of building components and equipment.
