What is your current building rectification process on repairs and maintenance?
Is it to wait until a Unit Owners/Residents or Property Agents raise a property matter with the Committee or Strata Manager?
If so, then the current process, could be costing your body corporate extra money.
In the current construction and remedial boom within SE QLD. Asking a contractor to attend and fix an urgent repair, will most certainly increase the cost of that repair. As a body corporate and through your committee, you need to consider implementing a more planned and considered approach to maintenance and repairs matters at your body corporate. Start to look around and review of your buildings and plan maintenance before they get to the urgent ‘Make Safe’ stage. Most of the time, you already know the life cycle of the building, through your Sinking Fund Forecast Report.
We all know getting contractors to attend and quote is proving more and more difficult. Contractors, especially SMEs are already extremely busy undertaking approved work. So why would you think they want to stop earning, just to attend your site to quote and possibly not win the job. As contractors say – When you’re quoting, you’re not earning.
Build a relationship with RSG, so we are highly motivated to attend and quote. We would love to develop a long-term relation with your body corporate and work with the committee to plan future remedial work. RSG would be happy to provide quotes consistent with the Sinking Fund Forecast Report. In addition, we would also be happy to quote on unforeseen or urgent repairs, because of the relationship already built.
Certain industries recognise four (4) types of maintenance strategies:
- Corrective Maintenance
- Preventive Maintenance
- Risk-Based Maintenance
- Condition-Based Maintenance
RSG would like to know if you don’t already fit into one of the above strategies. How can we assist you to decide, which strategy you consider most appropriate for your complex?
