Know the scope before you spend the capital.
Fixed price condition and compliance oriented assessment across a store fleet, producing a costed remediation scope.
A site condition audit is a fixed price assessment across a store fleet, or a pilot cluster of it, that produces a costed remediation scope. It exists so format and finance can see what the work actually is, and stage it, before committing capital.
The problem
- Nobody can size the problem across the estate, so the budget ask is a guess.
- Capital gets committed to the loudest store rather than the worst one.
- Format and finance are working from different pictures of the same fleet.
What's included
- Site photos per location
- Defect and condition notes
- A recommended standard kit for the issues found
- Per site cost shape
- Suggested staging, so the program can be split across capital cycles
Public liability insurance: $20 million.
Program shape
How the work runs
Same order every time. The order is what makes site 40 match site 1.
Agree the cluster
The whole fleet, a state, or a pilot group. Whatever makes the number defensible.
Attend and record
Photos, condition notes, measurements where the fix depends on them.
Recommend the standard
One kit that answers the issues found, rather than a per site invention.
Cost it
Per site, so it can be sorted, prioritised and staged.
Hand it over
A scope format and finance can both work from.
A good fit
- Groups about to ask for capital and needing a defensible number
- Estates where the condition genuinely is not known
- A pilot cluster to prove the audit format before running the fleet
Not a fit
- Certified structural or engineering inspection
- Statutory compliance certification
- An audit with no intention of acting on it
Photos
A marked up plan and the report it feeds
The glazing line, roller shutter and trading area, marked where work is needed. Those marks go into the report: a table of every site and what it needs, and marked up photos showing where tactiles, ramps and line marking go.
FAQ
About site safety & condition audits
What does the audit produce?
Site photos, defect and condition notes, a recommended standard kit, a per site cost shape and a suggested staging order. It is written to be used as a capital submission, not filed.
Is the audit fixed price?
Yes. The audit itself is scoped and priced up front, so committing to it does not commit you to the remediation.
Do we have to use you for the works?
No. The audit stands on its own. Most groups do continue, because the scope and the kit are already frozen by then.
