Asset Evaluation. . . Or Condition Assessment? Asset Evaluation High level/Holistic Functional Assists in big picture decisions Typically important in management of larger portfolios/multiple departments/campuses Condition Assessment Specific Detailed Assists in developing capital improvement plan Universal to all facilities owner-managers
Asset Evaluation. . . Or Condition Assessment? Condition Assessment Global General Condition Identify Global Issues/Preventive Maintenance Condition Assessment Detailed Lifecycle Costs Specific System Analysis Condition Assessment Maintenance/Deficiency Deferred Maintenance Capital Improvement Plans Customized Populate existing database Candidate for Renovation or Demolition
What’s included in an evaluation/assessment? Depends upon Building Type and Client Needs
Asset Evaluation. . . Or Condition Assessment? The Key to Managing Risk is Knowledge: What are my hazards? What are my risks? What are my options? What are my plans?
What is the deliverable? Asset Evaluation: • Descriptive data • Photos • Floor plans
What is the deliverable? Condition Assessment: • Qualitative description of state of building and its components, with costs for: • replacement of building and/or systems today and some point in future • Assists in preparing Capital Improvement Plans • Replacement of deficient systems today and some point in the future • Assists in preparing Deferred Maintenance Plans
What is the deliverable? Condition Assessment: • Descriptive data • Photos • Costs
What is the deliverable? Specific Assessment (Roofing): • Scaled roof plan with notations and/or photos of special features or typical deficiencies • Previously known data (components, manufacturer, installation contractor, leak history, repairs, etc.) • Newly gathered data
What is the deliverable? Specific Assessment (Roofing): Attention: XXXXXXXXX Property: XXXXXXXXXXX XXXXXXXXXXX Dear XXXXXXXX, On XXXXXXXXX the roof of the above referenced building was inspected by XX Professional Roofing Services, Inc. This roof condition assessment report contains the following: •Description of the roof system and components. •Notes on any known historical roof problems. •Identification of any deficiency items and repair recommendations. •Identification of current or ongoing maintenance items. •Identification of preventative maintenance items. •Projected life span of the roof system. •Text and pictures to illustrate this roof assessment report. This is a comprehensive report, which addresses all of the key elements of the roof system. If we may be of any further service, please feel free to call. Sincerely, XXXX PM
What is the deliverable? Roofing Example: • PART 1 BACKGROUND INFORMATION • PART 2 SPECIFIC NOTES AND DEFICIENCIES OF THE ROOF • PART 3 CONDITION REPORT • PART 4 RECOMMENDATIONS
What is the deliverable? Risk Strategies: Credit: FEMA
What is the deliverable? Seismic Survey:
What is the deliverable? Seismic Survey:
Poor Seismic Systems • Corrosion of critical structural elements • Hardscape deterioration • Lack of mechanical maintenance • “There’s no sense in replacing the carpet if the roof is leaking!” Hidden Troubles
DETERIORATION: Are there unsafe conditions? Is there deterioration present that could lead to bigger issues? Are there changes to my maintenance plan needed to limit future issues? Hidden Troubles
Hidden Troubles Do I understand how my facility will perform in the event of an earthquake? The Building Code: “The purpose of the earthquake provisions herein is primarily to safeguard against major structural failures and loss of life, not to limit damage or maintain function.”
Operational Immediate Occupancy Typical Code Building Life Safe Collapse Prevention Unsafe Hidden Troubles Building Performance Levels
Hidden Troubles Seismic Risk A function of seismic hazard andbuilding performance Not if, when…
Costs, Costs, Costs! Assessment Lifecycle, Maintenance, Replacement, and Risk Next Steps: Mitigate, Repair, Replace
Costs, Costs, Costs! Lifecycle Costs
Costs, Costs, Costs! Plant Replacement Value Deficiencies Equipment
Costs, Costs, Costs! Financial Seismic Loss Potential
Costs, Costs, Costs! Structural Studies: • Condition Assessments - $ • Preliminary Seismic Evaluations/ PML’s – $ • Post-Earthquake Planning - $$ • Building Inventory/ Portfolio Analysis - $$ • Seismic Program (after inventory) - $$ • Detailed Seismic Evaluations/ Retrofits - $$$+
Take Aways • Yes there are different kinds of Asset Evaluations and Condition Assessments. • To be of value, be sure the assessment includes what you need. • Think about how you will utilize the data and then ask for what you need. • Hidden troubles include deterioration, energy loss, and potential systems failure. • Doing nothing is NOT free.
I can do this myself (can’t I?)
