This will also include the facade, curtain-wall systems, glazing, exterior sealant, exterior balconies, and stairways. Heating System; identify boilers, furnaces, and major labeled equipment. Ventilation System: The HVAC system should be described and include data on the equipment's specific location, age and life expectancy, and condition. It should be noted if the system is adequate for the heating/cooling air distribution. The assessment must include information regarding the ventilation system(s) and assess overall condition Electrical Systems - Provide detailed summary of the electrical system including the service going into the building (i.e., overhead or underground). This should also include total amperage and other notable features. The type of wiring, location of primary transformer and type of generator (if any) should also be included Plumbing - Identify the plumbing system(s) at the building, including domestic water supply, domestic hot water production over 80 gallons, sanitary sewer, primary backflow preventer or any special or unusual plumbing systems (such as fuel systems, gas systems). Note any deficiencies in the plumbing system(s) for the building including the sewage disposal system. Roofing System: identify the material roof systems, including roof type, reported age, slope, drainage, or any unusual roofing conditions. Observe for evidence of material repairs, significant ponding, or evidence of material roof leaks.

Americans with Disabilities (ADA) - Review building, grounds and parking lot for compliance with the most recent ADA standards. List compliance deficiencies and cost to meet compliance. Site Paving: observe and evaluate the site paving components including paving, curbs, culverts, drains and sidewalks. Grounds: observe and evaluate the grounds for dangerous conditions to patrons, staff or students. Cost estimates- Employ a standardized, nationally recognized, cost estimating system to determine repair and replacement costs for all noted deficiencies. This data shall be presented in a user-friendly reporting format that prioritize current and anticipated maintenance and repair requirements to maximize the utilization of resources and return on investment and minimizes the cost of irreversible loss of service life and total cost. Costs must be broken out by deferred asset maintenance cost by asset component or system, calculate a facility condition index by system, and have the ability to separate rehabilitation and improvement costs from deficiency costs. Costs shall be inclusive of contractor overhead/burden. Interested Team. This will put the sending email address onto the Prospective Team list.
