Facility Condition Assessment
Know The Condition Of Every Building You Own
A facility condition assessment answers three questions: what’s in each building, how much life is left in it, and what it costs to keep. The output is a Facility Condition Index per asset and portfolio-wide — one number a board understands, with the whole system-by-system record behind it.
What The Engagement Covers
- Facility condition assessment
- System by system, per building: structure, envelope, roof, mechanical, electrical, plumbing, interiors, site.
- Facility Condition Index
- Deferred maintenance against replacement value, scored and rated, per asset and rolled up.
- Deferred maintenance backlog
- Itemised, costed, and prioritised rather than presented as a single alarming total.
- Space utilisation and needs assessment
- What you have against what you use — often the finding that changes the capital plan.
An Index Is Only As Good As The Costs Behind It
An FCI is a ratio, and a ratio is only as good as its numerator. We build the deferred maintenance figure from a system-level taxonomy with repair costs and replacement schedules attached, per asset class — not from a percentage-of-value rule of thumb.
The result is a backlog you can act on. A portfolio-level index tells you the situation is serious. Knowing which systems are past schedule, at which facilities, and what share of the backlog they account for tells you what to do in the morning.

What You Get
- Condition report
- Per building, per system: condition, remaining life, cost to correct.
- FCI scorecard
- Per asset and portfolio-wide, with the rating band and what moves it.
- Deferred maintenance backlog
- Itemised and prioritised, feeding straight into a capital plan.
- Condition record
- The dataset, re-assessable annually without starting over.
Where This Comes Up
Facility condition assessment is the most consistently funded of the six. Large jurisdictions run it as a standing programme; campuses run it on a cycle tied to the capital plan. It is also the natural first engagement, because everything downstream depends on its output.
Capital Planning & Compliance Reporting
A five-year plan with a disclosed ranking model behind it, and the GASB and FCA reporting your auditor and your board expect.
Asset Strategy
Decide what to keep, what to reposition, and what to let go — from your own documents rather than a broker’s opinion of value.
