WT can support you to achieve your project’s sustainability objectives through whole-of-life carbon assessments, meeting sustainability regulations, and Green Star certification guidance. From planning and design through to construction and operation, our Green Star accredited professionals can help, get in touch today to speak with our friendly team.

We are committed to supporting Aotearoa New Zealand’s net zero carbon emissions goals (through the Climate Change Response Amendment Act 2019) by advising our clients about the entire carbon life cycle of their project. We enable this through carbon assessment tools and professional construction industry methodologies.  

Upfront embodied carbon cost management

Upfront embodied carbon cost management covers Cradle to Practical Completion*:

▪ Product Stage – A1 Raw Material Supply, A2 Transport, A3 Manufacturing
▪ Construction Stage – A4 Transport, A5 Construction & Installation Process

We help you identify carbon and cost ‘hotspots’ by providing upfront carbon calculations with associated costs.

We then offer a unique carbon value engineering assessment (C02VE) to identify areas where alternative option discussions can take place, including alternative designs, materials, products, and construction methods (in collaboration with design teams) to achieve your sustainability or cost goals. Our multi-scenario design assessments allow for data-driven design decisions, making it easier for you to make informed choices and achieve sustainability goals.

*in accordance with BS EN15978

Capital renewals

Capital Renewals covers Practical Completion to Cradle*:
▪ Use Stage – B1 Building Use, B2 Maintenance, B3 Repair, B4 Refurbishment, B5 Replacement
▪ End of Life Stage – C1 Deconstruction & Demolition, C2 Transport, C3 Waste Processing, C4 Disposal
▪ Beyond Life Stage – D Reuse, Recovery, Recycling

With our Capital Renewals analysis, we can identify carbon and cost ‘hotspots’. This approach enables data-driven asset management and planning to help you make informed decisions about the future of your building assets.

Using comprehensive asset data, we provide a carbon value engineering assessment (C02VE) to advise on alternative refurbishment and replacement strategies. Our expertise extends beyond use and maintenance, as we identify opportunities for reuse, recovery, and recycling throughout the deconstruction and demolition of assets.

*in accordance with BS EN15978

How WT can help you meet sustainability, ESG, and social value goals

▪ End-to-end lifecycle coverage meaning that your project has been assessed holistically, ensuring that both the upfront embodied carbon and ongoing operational carbon considerations are addressed.

FACILITIES MANAGEMENT

At WT, we believe that facilities management is crucial for optimising operations, controlling costs, and ensuring occupant satisfaction. It involves maintaining buildings, complying with regulations, and protecting assets to support organisational goals and ensuring resilience.

WT's advisory team specialises in the strategic and operational management of facilities, ensuring that your project’s facilities are safe, efficient, and fit-for-purpose. With our expertise, you can trust that facilities are planned and optimised for efficient maintenance from the moment they become operational, providing long-term value to your project.

Facilities management in design

Our advisory team collaborate closely with the design team from the initial stages of design all the way through to practical completion and the defects liability period. This ensures that facilities management principles are integrated into the design process effectively.

Why should facilities management advisors be included during the project’s design phase?

▪ Considering operational needs and requirements early ensures the final project design functionally meets the needs of the facility and incorporates efficient operations from the outset, avoiding future expensive modifications or disruptions.

▪ Early inclusion allows all stakeholders to make informed decisions regarding materials, systems, and technologies that can minimise long-term operating costs and enhance the project’s sustainability.

▪ Advisors reduce risk as they ensure that design decisions have been thought about holistically with the client’s core objectives at the forefront, alongside cost, functionality, and sustainability.

▪ Facilities management advisors ensure the design complies with relevant regulations and standards.

▪ Having WT advisors present in early project stages allows for technology and automated dashboards to be set up to allow for operational monitoring and efficiencies to be made.

Soft landings services

We want you to avoid the risk of a gap between predicted and achieved performance on your project. Often, there is a disconnect between briefing, design, and construction phases, and as a result operational performance is negatively impacted.

Enter 'soft landings' – a strategic approach aimed at smoothing the transition from construction to operational use, maximising building performance, and user satisfaction.

Our approach begins with early stakeholder engagement, involving designers, contractors, and end-users from the outset to ensure the project aligns with their needs and expectations. During the design and construction phases, we maintain a strong focus on performance, ensuring quality control and adherence to design standards for optimal building efficiency.

We facilitate a smooth handover, and our approach ensures that staff are well-prepared to manage the facilities.

Once the building is occupied, our team can work with you on continuous improvement through conducting post-occupancy evaluations to monitor performance and gather feedback from occupants. This allows us to scope out and recommend any necessary adjustments to continuously optimise the building’s performance.

Facilities and property data analytics

WT’s Advisory Team utilise powerful business intelligence software to gain a comprehensive understanding of your project’s operations. Our software aggregates multiple data sources so that all facilities and asset information can be presented in one place. From there, we create data visualisations as part of a digital dashboard, customised to your project and set up to be user-friendly for all stakeholders to appreciate and understand the operational management aspects of the project.

Manage maintenance jobs with ease

We can help you to identify and resolve maintenance issues quickly, before they become costly and disruptive. We do this by setting up a user-friendly and automated system that monitors facilities and assets in real-time. If there is a potential issue arising, or apart that may need replacing, the system will notify you before it escalates into a critical issue. You will have the ability to check on the health of any asset remotely by logging on to the system, or in person by scanning a QR code on the asset. We develop comprehensive planned preventative maintenance schedules for all assets which can be utilised for facilities procurement and feed into the financial building operating model.

This is your key to effective facility management to prevent operational downtime.

Total cost of ownership support

The Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is conceptually straightforward in that it is the estimated total costs of goods, services, or construction works over the whole of their life.  However, in the context of physical building assets and/or infrastructure, it can present significant challenges to arrive at accurate estimates given the scale and complexity of the initial build, as well as the complexity of operations, maintenance, and servicing over the asset’s service life.

We leverage the extensive experience and expertise of our cost management and quantity surveying practitioners within the WT New Zealand team to fully understand the initial build cost, which we then couple with our asset and facility management data to develop robust whole of life cost models. These cost models allow our clients to make both initial and ongoing investment decisions based on accurate data and figures.

BODY CORPORATES AND LONG-TERM MAINTENANCE PLANS (LTMP)

WT understand that Body Corporates face the critical task of maintaining their assets to ensure reliability, longevity, and cost-effectiveness while fulfilling their obligations under the UTA 2010 and keeping costs manageable for their members.

Project success hinges on a deep understanding of assets, their condition, and strategic planning for maintenance and replacement, coupled with effective supplier management. With escalating cost pressures on Body Corporates, exacerbated by soaring insurance rates and construction industry inflation, cost management has become imperative for sustaining affordability.

The WT team empower Body Corporates to comprehensively grasp their asset portfolio, devise efficient maintenance strategies, and plan for timely replacements. Our team also provide supplier performance reviews to ensure adherence with contractual obligations.

What is a long-term maintenance plan (LTMP)?

All Body Corporates must have an active long-term maintenance plan (LTMP) which is updated every three years. The LTMP must span a 30-year period and outline all of the capital required to replace the common area assets within a building over that period. This information then helps to calculate the contributions each owner makes to the maintenance or “sinking” fund. WT provide a digital, comprehensive view of this 30-year period which is available to Body Corporates at any time via our online platform.

RISK, ASSURANCE AND INDEPENDENT ADVICE

Throughout project execution, it's crucial to deploy sufficient controls and monitoring activities. These measures ensure that organisations and project participants receive accurate accounts of the project's status, health, and the realisation of any benefits or success criteria set out in the business case or early planning stages. While basic reporting is typically provided by the project delivery team, high-profile and complex projects often seek an additional layer of assurance.

At WT, our advisory team have extensive experience in providing independent third-party assurance. We utilise objective metrics to provide true and accurate accounts of project status, along with pragmatic and sensible recommendations for required management actions to address any identified areas of concern.
