Facility Condition Assessment
Castagna Consulting Group provides facility condition assessment services allowing clients to optimize long-term facility investments. We use a comprehensive methodology to determine current building deficiencies and estimated costs associated with renewal, repair, and code compliance. The facility analysis determines immediate and long-term costs liabilities for building component lifecycle renewal, deferred maintenance, code compliance, and functional inadequacies based on an industry-standard cost database. Clients use this information to address operational requirements, facility renewal forecasting, and funding scenarios for capital project planning.
