Reduce your risk, improve your bottom line, make your life easier, and improve your competetive advantage.
Springfield Commercial Roofing has the world’s most advanced roofing evaluation technology. We can collect all of the critical telemetry and then report it in a concise format easily accessible from any computer.
General:
The RMP is a system designed to assist a manager of multiple roofs in managing the roofing assets. It is a decision support tool which provides systematic and consistent methods of assessing roof condition, selecting repair and replacement needs, and prioritizing work based on maximizing benefits and minimizing costs.
The Program is comprised of network inventory, condition inspections, as well as network and project level management.
Components:
Network Inventory
The first step in implementing the Springfield Roofing Roof Management Program is to develop an inventory of all the roofs that the client is responsible for managing. The buildings are divided into smaller units called ‘Roofing Sections’. The ‘Roofing Sections’ are made up of individual roofing areas that are divided by the natural breaks in the building. Springfield Roofing collects physical and historical information about each roof section, including the physical dimensions, construction characteristics, and the material types of each roof component (deck, insulation, membrane, surface, and flashing)
Condition Inspections
Springfield Roofing conducts a full inspection using an objective and repeatable system for determining the roof’s present condition. After the inspection, the severity and quantity of the roof deficiencies are evaluated. The systematic approach insures an objective assessment of overall building condition in regards to the roofing system, component condition, waterproof integrity, and repair needs. The systematic approach consists of:- visual inspections
- surveys of existing deficiencies
- core cuts
- moisture surveys using capacitance metering to identify areas of wet substrate
- Infrared scan
- ENERGY AUDIT on entire facility
Network-Level and Project-Level Management
Once the Network Inventory has been established and the Condition Inspections completed, Network Management can be utilized. The program provides several layers of repair and replacement cost options as well as analysis and sample yearly plans that represent the best technical options. These plans can be easily customized with input from the facility manager to represent both the best technical as well as business option. This greatly reduces the time and effort necessary to make sound facility decisions.
Condition Prediction
The program includes a forecast for the future condition of areas in the inventory so that repair or replacement decisions can be timed correctly
Project Formulation
The program groups individual maintenance requirements together to form projects that can then be entered into a facility’s work management system
Benefits:
- A roof inventory that is organized and easily accessible
- Objective and consistent condition evaluation of roofs
- Systematic and documentable engineering basis for determining needs and priorities
- Identification of budgeting requirements for maintaining roofs
- Cost analysis techniques for selecting repair/replacement alternatives
- Rapid access to information
- Cost analysis on repair and replacement alternatives to determine the optimal strategy
- The necessary documentation for support of repair as well as capitol improvement requests for individual projects
- Small roof problems are detected and corrected before they become costly replacement projects
- Reduced risk
- Predictability of expenditures
- Tremendous cost savings
