Building Audits – Essential and Non-Essential Services, in particular, the services which support the building’s functions, offers the opportunity to create a “control point” from which the building is being measured from to improve it’s performance; to investigate it’s overall technological performance and where the opportunities are.
Our Aim is to use the synergies between the different building services to reduce the environmental impact of your facility, that is, how well do the individual systems integrate to in an overall single strategy to reduce running costs of the building.
Improve Nabers
The results of these Audits can form an active control document as the basis to set performance indicators.
The baseline, if you will. The audit serves as a review tool to measure the starting point from which recommendations that have been implemented.
NABERS is an annual assessment under legislation for many commercial facilities (1000 meters N.L.A), consequently, the Nabers process is encouraging owners to improve their building’s performance.

Asset Maintenance – Main Plant Equipment Maintenance
All buildings, including commercial and residential apartment buildings, have fixed assets built into them to provide for the building’s operational services for the functionality of the building. Theses assets, and their peripheral equipment, need maintenance and monitoring the same as any other asset, with or without moving parts.
Asset Maintenance is imperative to keep costs low in both energy consumption and breakdown events.
Asset Maintenance Plan
An Asset Maintenance plan can be as simple as a spread sheet or require multi license, multi user software.
The important part of the strategy is to keep the maintenance strategy active, that is, use the plan and keep it up to date.
Asset Register
