From Reactive to Proactive: Transforming Envelope Maintenance with Asseti

In the realm of building maintenance, the shift from reactive to proactive strategies marks a significant evolution, especially when it comes to the external envelope and overall condition of buildings.

Traditionally, maintenance efforts for external components and envelopes have often been reactive—addressing issues only when they become apparent. However, this approach can lead to increased costs, disruptions, and potential safety hazards. Enter Asseti, a groundbreaking platform that revolutionizes envelope maintenance by enabling proactive monitoring and predictive analytics.

Understanding Reactive vs. Proactive Maintenance

Reactive Maintenance: Reactive strategies for condition maintenance involve responding to visible damage or issues as they arise. While immediate repairs may resolve current problems, they can be costly and may not prevent future issues from developing.

Proactive Maintenance: Proactive envelope maintenance focuses on preventive measures and early intervention. By leveraging real-time monitoring and predictive analytics, proactive strategies anticipate and address potential issues before they escalate. This approach minimizes downtime, extends the lifespan of external building materials, and optimizes building performance and energy efficiency.

Asseti: Empowering Proactive Envelope Maintenance

Asseti transforms envelope maintenance from reactive to proactive  its advanced capabilities:

• Real-Time Monitoring and Early Detection
  Asseti provides continuous real-time monitoring of the external asset condition, capturing data on environmental conditions, structural integrity, and performance metrics. By detecting anomalies early, such as cracks, leaks, or material degradation, Asseti enables maintenance teams to take timely corrective actions, preventing minor issues from becoming major repairs.

• Predictive Analytics for Strategic Planning
  Utilizing cutting-edge predictive analytics, Asseti forecasts degradation and maintenance needs based on historical data trends. Machine learning algorithms analyze data to predict potential issues, allowing facility managers to schedule maintenance tasks strategically and allocate resources efficiently. This proactive approach reduces overall maintenance costs and enhances operational efficiency.

• High-Resolution 3D Imagery for Detailed Inspections
  Asseti employs high-resolution 3D imagery to provide detailed inspections of building conditions. This technology allows maintenance teams to visualize and analyze elements with precision, identifying even minor defects or structural weaknesses that may not be visible to the naked eye. By enhancing inspection accuracy, Asseti ensures thorough assessments and facilitates targeted maintenance interventions.

• Streamlined Workflows and Enhanced Efficiency
  Asseti integrates seamlessly with existing building management systems (BMS) and maintenance workflows, streamlining processes and enhancing efficiency. Automated alerts and notifications notify maintenance teams of critical issues, enabling prompt responses and proactive interventions to maintain integrity and safety.

• Cost Savings and Sustainable Practices
  By adopting proactive envelope maintenance with Asseti, organizations can achieve significant cost savings over time. Predictive maintenance minimizes the need for emergency repairs and prolongs the lifespan of building envelope materials, contributing to sustainable building practices and minimizing environmental impact.

Customer Proof Points with Asseti

Asseti has successfully empowered numerous organizations to enhance their external condition maintenance practices. Here are some examples:

Case Study: Mirvac

• ‍“In addition to the roof top monitoring program and reports, it (Asseti) also allows Mirvac to identify a tenant's use of the industrial assets and mitigate risks (such as overloading due to inappropriate utilisation of space by tenants) and procure additional income, as the data is now captured and on record to enable enforcement of contractual penalties and/or additional rent from additional usage of the industrial assets, that were not previously being captured and documented. There is now timely and accurate documentary evidence at all times.”
  - Mirvac Industrial Facilities Manager

• "Really handy when creating visuals for scope of works, not only for roof projects but also for hardstand, landscaping and mechanical projects.”
  - National Technical Operations Manager
