Services provided:

Building condition assessments, data collection, digital mapping of assets, preparation of repair and maintenance forecasting, strategic asset development, asset management plans per region and asset class.

Project summary:

NSW Public Works (NSWPW) conducted condition assessments on more than 550 built assets for NSW Crown Lands. A flexible scope empowered assessors to plan access, with NSWPW enabling system adjustments based on discoveries during assessments. Project plans were effectively communicated to regional NSW Crown Lands teams and building occupants. Geographic areas were segmented into regions for efficiency, with adaptable planning accommodating the dynamic operational requirements of the active estate.

Key projects components:

Assessing building conditions to identify risk and repair costs

NSWPW completed condition reports using our surveying system, which collects data and collates photographs via a frontend application, bespoke for each project. A financial risk is estimated for repair or replacement. Specific hazards are also noted in the report to aid safe and continued operation.

Collecting maintainable asset data to develop asset maintenance schedules

In line with ISO41000 (Facilities Management System Standards), data was collected to input into a management system that will allow planning and execution of maintenance and provide proper record keeping.

Forecast maintenance based on collected asset data

Maintainable systems and components data allows for maintenance schedules to be prepared, both for statutory maintenance requirement and planned maintenance, based upon the manufacturer’s guidelines and industry best practices.

Digital capture and mapping producing technical drawings of building assets

A specific site was designated for development and was selected for 3D and 2D mapping utilising NSWPW’s specialist cameras and scanning equipment. The 2D and 3D technology scans both internally and externally and creates floor plans and plans of the fascia of the building.

Strategic development plans for specific building assets with potential community benefits

As part of the discovery process, specific sites were identified for potential development. NSW Crown Lands engaged NSWPW to develop plans for such sites with a key focus on the benefit for the local community.

Production of the asset management plan’s (AMP’s) per region and asset class

NSW Crown Lands engaged NSWPW to produce asset class and regional asset management plans, with the data from the condition assessments underpinning part of the plans.
