Capital Planning

Capital Planning

Capital planning shouldn’t stop at facility condition assessments and energy studies.  

As a facility manager or owner, accurate and actionable information on buildings is required, but a process to manage the data, prioritize projects, and maintain budgets is essential. BV assists with the prioritization of expansion and modernization projects while making sure budgets are adequately planned for repairs and routine maintenance. Based on available capital and projected budgets, BV can assist you in prioritizing recommended repairs and developing project phasing plans. Read our FCA and Capital Planning Blog here
