At Technical Assurance, we believe in a simplified, programmatic approach to building envelope asset management. Our team of professionals will help you implement a sustainability program to:
- Reduce emergency spending and reactive repairs
- Extend the life of building systems
- Extend the time between capital renewals/replacements
- Lower your total cost ownership
A Run-to-Failure vs. Proactive Approach
Run-to-failure is a type of maintenance that is only performed when equipment or building assets fail. This approach incurs higher costs for one-time system replacement versus smaller, more cost-effective and manageable repairs over time. A proactive approach is preventative maintenance, which is a type of maintenance that is performed regularly to avoid unexpected failure and incurred costs while extending the life of your assets.

Take the Online Facilities Self-Assessment
As building enclosure consultants, we’re passionate about helping building owners and facility managers solve critical problems within their facilities. Documenting the issues you are experiencing is the best first step ahead of evaluating and testing existing building enclosures to get to the root cause. This online assessment will help us better understand your concerns and provide the necessary context for a free consultation.
The Proactive Approach: Asset Life Cycle Management
Our asset management programs are sustainable investment plans that proactively manage the life cycle of building envelope and roof system assets. This approach positively impacts the financial health of organizations by reducing the overall spend on facility assets through extending life cycles and reducing deferred maintenance and capital backlogs.

Redefining Sustainability
Technical Assurance is passionate about sustainability in the purest sense—making things last longer. We believe that the complexities that face facility asset management can be simplified through programmatic management and progressive technologies.
Our process includes the implementation of life extension measures that will ultimately prolong the life of building system assets and lower the total cost of ownership to drive cost savings. Predictive and preventative maintenance programs ensure the continuity and sustainability of our entire process.
Facility Directors: Make Your Case with Data
Amid financial uncertainty, facility directors are faced with making difficult choices when it comes to budgeting. Replacement projects can be unavoidable and typically come from a dedicated budget. Whereas, discretionary spend (i.e. the budget for preventative maintenance) may be the first item to get cut. This run-to-failure strategy is counterintuitive and ends up costing organizations more in the long run.
How can facility directors suggest realistic funding requests that actually get approval?
The answer isn’t making requests based on anecdotes, opinions or last year’s leftover project list. You can make a case with irrefutable, data-driven, systematic plans that are backed by statistical financial projections.
