Core Systems Assessment. For facility which do not require a detailed approach, but where accuracy of information is critical, this fully-remote approach leverages the power and insights that exist in Xxxxxxx's cost and facilities databases (RS Means, Sightlines, and Gordian JOC) to assess building needs at a system-level (Uniformat Level 3). This approach uses database cost- models, existing maintenance data, and user experiences to focus on the 20 most critical systems in each building which comprise over 95% of the identifiable needs within a facility. The system-level cost models are then customized for each unique facility to accurately reflect the specific needs of that physical asset. The selected baseline approach is used to assemble the inventory - through building assessments, data migrations, and cost-model creation. The resulting inventory is stored in the secure Gordian Cloud platform where accessibility and continued accuracy of the data can be ensured. This web-based platform will be the central repository for all detailed assessments, migrated data, cost models, and strategic tools as they are created. An introduction to this platform will begin during the baselining stage but will continue throughout the partnership with Gordian, as sustained engagement on the platform will be critical to the longevity and sustainment of the project results. Formal training on the usage of Gordian Cloud will be delivered after the conclusion of the project. What makes Gordian unique is the integration with operational perspectives and customized strategy tools. To harness the vast amount of latent knowledge held by supervision and trades staff, Xxxxxxx will conduct interviews with facilities managers and other knowledgeable individuals. We find these interviews invaluable to: Confirm and adjust assumptions in the Core Systems and Detailed Assessments Confirm building and system alignment with operational objectives and direction. Validate life cycle and pricing estimates. Build operator confidence in the process, project recommendations and overall findings. * Supervisor interviews are an iterative process requiring equal involvement of the community, institution, or district and Gordian staff. The time commitment required of community, institution, or district staff can vary, ranging from a few hours to a couple days. Because this stage runs through Gordian Cloud, these interviews can happen on- site or remotely through a web-meeting, as requested. An assessment that stops at thi...
Core Systems Assessment. A fully-remote approach leverages the power and insights that exist in Gordian’s cost and facilities databases (RSMeans, Gordian Planning, and Gordian JOC) to assess building needs at a system-level (Uniformat Level 3). Because all three baseline approaches result in Uniformat codifications and are compared using RSMeans pricing, we are able to create a consistent and apples-to-apples inventory of facilities needs across your portfolio of physical assets.

Once the selection of the baseline approach is complete, the next step is to assemble the inventory through building assessments, data migrations, and cost-model creation. The resulting inventory is stored in Gordian Cloud’s secure platform, which leads us to phase 2.
