Asset Inspection Methodologies. • Regular physical inspections of assets • Use of technology (drones, sensors, IoT) • Documentation and reporting of asset condition • Identifying early warning signs of deterioration • Prioritizing critical systems (plumbing, HVAC, roofing).
Predictive vs Preventive Maintenance. Predictive Maintenance: • Uses data and analytics to predict failures • Reduces downtime with targeted interventions Preventive Maintenance: • Based on scheduled, routine tasks • Focuses on avoiding common failures • Helps extend asset life and reduce costs.
Creating and Using Inspection Checklists. • Standardized checklists ensure consistency • Tailor checklists for different property types • Include safety, functionality, and compliance items • Use digital tools for real-time reporting • Review and update checklists regularly.
