Asset Integrity & Condition Assessment

Evidence-led assessment from observed condition to prioritized technical action.

Capability overview

Asset Integrity & Condition Assessment

FORMĚS supports owners and operators in understanding existing asset condition, structural integrity, failure mechanisms, performance and rehabilitation priorities.

Capability set

What each service actually contributes.

The services below are not interchangeable labels. Each answers a different technical question and is scoped according to the evidence, project stage and required level of assurance.

01

Structural Integrity Assessment

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Engineering assessment of structural condition and capacity using available records, field evidence, testing and analysis appropriate to the question being answered.

When it becomes useful

Relevant after deterioration, damage, change of loading, observed distress, aging or where continued safe use needs a defensible technical basis.

Typical technical outputs
  • Integrity assessment report
  • Capacity / condition findings
  • Repair, monitoring or further-investigation recommendations
02

Asset Condition Assessment

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Multidisciplinary condition review that converts observed defects and available records into a structured picture of asset condition and intervention priority.

When it becomes useful

Used for maintenance planning, due diligence, rehabilitation programmes and portfolios that need consistent condition intelligence.

Typical technical outputs
  • Condition ratings / findings
  • Defect and evidence register
  • Prioritized technical actions
03

Property Condition Assessment

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Systematic assessment of building fabric, structural, MEP and maintainability condition to establish current deficiencies and likely intervention priorities.

When it becomes useful

Commonly used for acquisition, portfolio planning, handover, major refurbishment or when maintenance history does not provide a reliable condition picture.

Typical technical outputs
  • Condition assessment report
  • Defect / evidence register
  • Prioritized maintenance or capital actions
04

Failure, Distress & Root-Cause Investigation

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Forensic engineering investigation of cracking, deformation, deterioration, malfunction or failure to distinguish symptoms from the underlying cause.

When it becomes useful

Relevant when repair decisions would otherwise be based on visible damage alone or when recurring defects indicate a deeper mechanism.

Typical technical outputs
  • Root-cause assessment
  • Evidence / hypothesis evaluation
  • Corrective and follow-up recommendations
05

Asset Performance Assessment

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Evaluation of whether an asset is delivering its required function using condition evidence, operating information, maintenance history and performance indicators.

When it becomes useful

Used where condition alone does not explain recurring underperformance, reliability issues or declining service levels.

Typical technical outputs
  • Performance assessment
  • Constraint / degradation findings
  • Improvement priorities
06

Lifecycle Asset Analysis

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Assessment of deterioration, remaining service considerations, intervention timing and long-term technical priorities across an asset lifecycle.

When it becomes useful

Relevant for aging assets, capital-planning decisions, rehabilitation programmes and portfolios where interventions must be prioritized over time.

Typical technical outputs
  • Lifecycle assessment
  • Intervention scenarios / priorities
  • Monitoring or renewal recommendations
07

Structural Health Monitoring

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Definition and interpretation of monitoring strategies that track structural response, movement or deterioration over time against meaningful technical thresholds.

When it becomes useful

Used where one-off inspection cannot provide sufficient confidence and the evolution of structural behaviour needs to be observed.

Typical technical outputs
  • Monitoring strategy / parameters
  • Trend and threshold interpretation
  • Technical alerts / recommendations

Delivery / qualification noteSensors, specialist platforms and monitoring hardware may be integrated with qualified technology partners as appropriate.

08

Repair, Rehabilitation & Strengthening Recommendations

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Development and comparison of technically appropriate intervention options based on the diagnosed condition, cause, required performance and implementation constraints.

When it becomes useful

Used after assessment or investigation when the project needs a defensible repair, rehabilitation or strengthening strategy before detailed implementation.

Typical technical outputs
  • Repair / strengthening strategy
  • Option assessment and priorities
  • Implementation recommendations
09

Seismic Technical Assistance & Audit

Assess & Protect Assets
Use this service

Engineering review of seismic design basis, demand, capacity, vulnerabilities and available records to support risk-informed technical decisions.

When it becomes useful

Relevant for existing structures, change of use, critical facilities, design review or assets where seismic assumptions need independent verification.

Typical technical outputs
  • Seismic review findings
  • Vulnerability / verification assessment
  • Further analysis or retrofit recommendations
Typical buying triggers
