Facility Management
PLANiT’s products include a variety of reports, plans and tools that are critical to efficient facility management. In addition to delivering accurate as-built plans for your building and site, we can also produce parking plans and develop spreadsheets that show key building details such as construction material quantities and unit area calculations according to relevant industry standards.
Use our state-of-the-art Building Information Models (BIM) to estimate maintenance contracts more accurately and model energy consumption and building reconfigurations. PLANiT helps affordably ensure long-term facility management efficiency.
Design
In order to efficiently and effectively redesign your building or portions thereof, you first need an accurate digital rendering of the facility as it exists today – not as it was planned in the original blueprints. PLANiT’s technicians use advanced patent-pending MeasuringBoard® technology to measure precisely and develop accurate as-built CAD drawings that are far more efficient than those produced with traditional methods.
Drawings can be delivered (usually the same-day) in a variety of formats for architectural and design purposes. PLANiT can also go beyond simple CAD floor plans to develop parametric Building Information Models (BIM) which represent the future of electronic building design, management, and maintenance.
Confirm Property Assessment Calculations
Property taxes are a major annual operating expense. Building size is a key factor used in calculating most assessed values and can significantly influence the amount of taxes you are required to pay each year. Independent area calculations and space audits certified by a Professional Engineer help ensure that you do not incur unwarranted financial burdens; are not overcharged, and do not overpay.
Marketing Solutions
With over 90% of buyers and renters using the Internet to search for available properties, your real estate marketing campaigns deserve a presentation powered by the best and most vividly convincing marketing technology. Floor plans provide a powerful visual representation of a unit or building that photos and even panoramic tours cannot convey.
Take advantage of cutting edge online marketing tools to attract more buyers and provide a more engaging and compelling user experience – while giving your site a more professional appearance. PLANiT offers basic 2D plans, enhanced colour plans that show sample furniture placement, high definition 3D plans, and even animated fly-throughs. We deliver the most complete results-oriented marketing packages in the industry to successfully target buyers, renters, or investors.
Maximize Revenue
The actual measurements and area calculations of existing buildings rarely match those specified on original blueprints. If your leases are based on actual rentable area but you base those calculations on blueprints or, plans created by someone that is not professionally certified in the relevant industry standards, you could be missing out on considerable additional annual income.
PLANiT is the only measuring company licensed by the Professional Engineers of BC, Alberta, Ontario, Québec and Nova Scotia to certify building areas. Our technicians are experts in all relevant industry standards including BOMA, SIOR and others. Accurate floor plans will ensure that you are not overpaying on maintenance contracts and will also help to identify underutilized areas within a building. That allows managers and designers to potentially plan reconfigurations to add additional rentable area – or even entire units – to an existing space.
Liability Protection
If you own a building with several occupants, chances are high that you are required by law to develop and keep an up-to-date Fire Safety Plan and other evacuation and emergency plans. One of the most critical components of these plans is a detailed, accurate and easy-to-read schematic or floor plan to assist emergency responders.
PLANiT’s schematics are unsurpassed in the building industry. Since critical contact and occupant information within a Fire Safety Plan changes over time, plans must be routinely reviewed and updated. PLANiT’s online Fire Safety Plan portal is designed to help owners and managers affordably and accurately update them on an ongoing basis – without having to pay outside consultants each time.
Due Diligence
Don’t risk purchasing a building based on quoted area measurements that are inaccurate. Insist that the as-built floor plans and area calculations are up-to-date and have been prepared and certified by licensed professionals with a reputation for quality and ongoing support.
PLANiT’s BOMA Certified Measurement Professional and Professional Engineer certifications ensure that you are receiving unparalleled expertise and professional backing for the data that will support your important investment decisions and all of our products and services are backed by full E&O Insurance.
