Asset Intelligence

Engineering-led asset intelligence for high-value built assets.

Urbanstrut helps clients bring inspections, maintenance planning, guarantees and asset records into one structured environment so important assets can be managed with greater clarity and confidence.

The problem

High-value assets need more than disconnected inspection reports.

For many building and infrastructure assets, the technical issue is only part of the risk. The other part is weak information control: drawings, photos, PDFs, guarantees, site instructions, contractor records and inspection actions sitting in separate places.

01

Inspection evidence

Asset zones, inspection events, photos, defects, reports and close-out evidence are connected instead of left as loose files.

02

Maintenance planning

Defects, service items, due dates and recommended interventions are tracked so maintenance becomes visible and manageable.

03

Risk and assurance

Engineering judgement is converted into asset-care dashboards that support asset owners, facilities teams, insurers and auditors.

Engineering-led asset intelligence

Urbanstrut turns inspection knowledge into usable asset control.

Urbanstrut combines engineering judgement, inspection approach, refurbishment knowledge and asset-management advice to help owners keep clear records, track maintenance actions and understand long-term asset risk.

  • Built around real inspection, refurbishment and maintenance decisions.
  • Focused on traceable evidence for owners, facilities teams and insurers.
  • Introduced through focused asset reviews and selected pilot projects.
Pilot project

FNB Bank City Facade Service Book

A structured asset-intelligence pilot for the Bank City facade portfolio, connecting precinct assets, drawings, inspections, findings and maintenance obligations.

Bank City pilot

One facade portfolio, organised as a living service book.

For FNB Bank City, Urbanstrut has structured the facade-maintenance record around the way the asset is actually managed: buildings, elevations, PC Pack areas, inspection rounds, guarantee obligations, service entries, findings and future due dates.

6building groups and link bridges
28facade and exterior asset areas
35elevation drawings with grid structure
17inspection events and report records
42guarantee and maintenance documents
225grid-referenced findings on record
01Precinct-to-asset structure. Bank City is organised from the precinct level down to buildings, elevations, link bridges and individual facade asset areas.
02Inspection evidence in context. Reports, findings and service entries are linked back to the relevant asset areas and drawings instead of sitting as disconnected PDFs.
03Guarantee and maintenance control. Annual inspection obligations, evidence requirements and future due dates are visible as part of the same service-book record.
04Records that outlive one project phase. The service book can keep working after a guarantee period, giving the owner a long-term facade maintenance history.

Figures reflect the current pilot register and are intended as a concise indication of scale, not a substitute for the private service-book record.

How it helps

What asset owners can keep under control.

The focus is simple: know what you own, what condition it is in, what needs attention and what evidence exists when decisions need to be made.

  1. Know what assets you haveA clear view of buildings, facades, roofs, zones, components and locations.
  2. See condition and defects clearlyInspection findings, photos, reports, severity and close-out evidence in one reliable record.
  3. Protect guarantees and service recordsMaintenance obligations, service dates and supporting evidence kept ready when needed.
  4. Plan work before it becomes urgentForward inspection and maintenance planning based on condition, risk and priority.
  5. Report with confidenceSimple evidence packs for owners, facilities teams, insurers and management.
Best fit

Where this adds value first.

This service is best suited to assets where inspection evidence, maintenance decisions and long-term risk need to be visible and defensible.

FAC

Facade and roof assets

High-value building envelopes where inspection evidence, defects, maintenance and third-party risk must be controlled.

IND

Industrial and mining assets

Remote or complex assets where structured maintenance records and risk visibility support owner decision-making.

PORT

Portfolio owners

Landlords and asset managers who need a consistent view across multiple sites, buildings or asset classes.

Getting started

Start with a focused pilot asset.

A pilot asset gives the owner a clear way to test the approach: confirm the asset structure, capture inspection evidence, identify priority risks and agree how maintenance records should be kept over time.

  • Review a selected asset, building envelope or portfolio sample.
  • Structure the inspection, defect and maintenance evidence.
  • Produce a clear owner-facing view of priorities, actions and records.
