End-to-End Consulting
& Energy Advisory

A thorough condition assessment is the foundation of every sound building management decision. Our engineering consulting team conducts systematic, field-based evaluations of your building's envelope systems — including roofing membranes, wall assemblies, glazing, caulking, flashings, and pavement surfaces — documenting their current condition, remaining service life, and any deficiencies that require attention.

The result is a detailed, prioritized report that gives building owners and managers the clarity they need to make informed capital planning decisions. Rather than reacting to failures after they occur, our condition assessments put you in a position to plan proactively — optimizing maintenance expenditures, avoiding emergency repairs, and extending the service life of your building's most critical systems.

A Building Condition Assessment (BCA) provides a comprehensive evaluation of all major building systems — structural, envelope, mechanical, electrical, and site components — establishing a clear picture of your asset's current state and forecasting future capital requirements. Our engineering consulting team conducts BCAs in accordance with applicable Canadian standards and provincial requirements, delivering reports that are credible, defensible, and actionable.

Reserve Fund Studies build on the BCA framework to develop a long-term capital expenditure plan — typically covering a 30-year horizon — that ensures adequate reserves are maintained for future repair and replacement of building components. For condominium corporations, property managers, and institutional owners, a well-prepared Reserve Fund Study is both a regulatory requirement and a critical financial planning tool. Our studies are prepared with precision and presented in a format that is accessible to both technical and non-technical stakeholders.

When building envelope systems require repair, replacement, or upgrade, the quality of the engineering consulting and design work directly determines the outcome. Our team develops detailed engineering consulting designs for roofing systems, wall assemblies, glazing systems, and waterproofing applications — specifying materials, detailing critical transitions, and producing contract documents that contractors can build from with precision. We work across all major envelope system types, from conventional low-slope membrane roofing to complex curtain wall systems and below-grade waterproofing.

We also provide full project management services through design, tendering, and construction — acting as your owner's representative to ensure that the work is completed on time, on budget, and in strict accordance with the design intent. Our construction-phase involvement includes site reviews, progress monitoring, deficiency identification, and final inspection — giving building owners the assurance that their investment is protected from the first day of construction through final closeout.

Pavement systems represent a significant and often underappreciated component of a property's capital asset base. Poorly maintained pavement not only creates liability exposure but signals neglect to tenants, customers, and visitors. Our engineering consulting team assesses the condition of asphalt and concrete pavement systems, determines the most cost-effective rehabilitation strategy — whether that is crack sealing, resurfacing, or full reconstruction — and develops a detailed design and specification package for tendering.

We manage the full project delivery process, from contractor prequalification through construction oversight and final acceptance. Our pavement engineering consulting work is grounded in a life-cycle cost approach — always weighing the upfront cost of rehabilitation against the long-term cost of continued deterioration to ensure our clients get the best value from every dollar invested in their pavement infrastructure.

The air and vapour barrier systems within a building envelope are among its most performance-critical — and most frequently compromised — components. Gaps, discontinuities, or improper detailing in these systems lead to uncontrolled air leakage, moisture accumulation within wall assemblies, thermal bridging, and significantly elevated heating and cooling loads. Our engineering consulting team evaluates the performance of existing air and vapour barrier systems, identifies deficiencies, and develops remediation strategies that restore envelope integrity.

For new construction and major retrofits, we provide design and specification services that ensure air and vapour barrier systems are properly designed, detailed, and installed from the outset — reducing the risk of costly in-service failures. Thermal performance optimization work complements this by identifying areas of high heat loss or gain and developing targeted improvements that reduce energy consumption, improve occupant comfort, and extend the service life of adjacent building components.

The gap between a well-prepared design and a properly executed installation is where many building envelope problems originate. Our engineering consulting team provides independent, on-site construction review services during the installation of envelope systems — verifying that materials are being installed in accordance with the contract documents, manufacturer requirements, and applicable codes and standards. We document our observations through detailed field reports and flag any deficiencies promptly, allowing contractors to address issues before they become embedded in the completed work.

Independent construction review is one of the most cost-effective risk management tools available to building owners. A deficiency identified during construction costs a fraction of what the same issue costs to remediate after the building is occupied. Our presence on site — as your independent technical advisor — ensures accountability throughout the construction process and gives you confidence that the work meets the standard you paid for.

Field testing provides objective, measurable evidence of building envelope performance — going beyond visual observation to quantify how systems are actually performing under real conditions. Our engineering consulting team conducts and oversees a range of envelope performance tests, including air leakage testing, water penetration testing, thermal imaging, and adhesion testing, using these results to verify that installed systems meet design performance requirements and to identify areas requiring remediation.

Commissioning support services ensure that building envelope systems are formally verified as functional, complete, and performing as designed before final acceptance. This is particularly important on complex new construction and major renovation projects where multiple trades and systems interact at the envelope interface. Our commissioning involvement provides a final, independent checkpoint that protects building owners from accepting work that does not meet the contracted standard.

Our Facility Condition Assessments are conducted to recognised industry standards and aligned with the capital funding requirements of public-sector and institutional owners. Each FCA produces a defensible inventory of building components, their condition, remaining service life, and forecasted renewal costs — the foundation of any credible capital plan.

Unlike a traditional PDF report that is obsolete the day it is delivered, our FCAs feed directly into a continuously updated capital renewal platform — so the data your facilities team works with on Monday is the same data your finance team uses for next year's budget request.

We build multi-year capital renewal models that translate condition data into a prioritised, scenario-tested funding plan. Leadership teams can model deferred-maintenance backlogs, evaluate the impact of different funding levels, and stress-test capital strategies against operational realities — all from a single source of truth.

The output is a capital plan that holds up to scrutiny: defensible to boards, ready for funding submissions, and clear enough that your facilities team and your finance team are finally working from the same playbook.

A Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS) is only as good as the way it is implemented. We deploy and configure CMMS solutions that match your team's actual workflows — work order intake, dispatch, preventive maintenance scheduling, vendor management, and inventory tracking — without forcing your staff to adopt processes designed for someone else's organisation.

Implementation is hands-on: configuration, data migration, staff training, and the early operational support needed to make adoption stick. The result is a maintenance management system your team will actually use, every day.

Every major asset across your portfolio — roofs, HVAC equipment, electrical systems, envelope components, site infrastructure — is tracked with its specifications, installation date, condition rating, and renewal forecast. Condition is updated continuously as assessments and work orders flow through the system, not once every five years when a consultant is engaged.

This continuous picture is what separates reactive maintenance from strategic asset management. You see deterioration trends as they emerge, not after a failure forces an emergency capital request.

Securing capital funding — whether through internal budget cycles, federal and provincial infrastructure programs, or board approval — requires data that is current, defensible, and presented in the format the funder expects. We build dashboards and reporting templates that produce funding-ready outputs on demand: prioritised renewal lists, condition-rated asset inventories, scenario-modelled capital plans, and the supporting narrative that ties them together.

Real-time condition dashboards replace the static, outdated reports your team has been working from — so when a funding window opens, you're already ready.
