This project, undertaken by Roth IAMS through FCAPX, a Division of Roth IAMS, aimed to conduct Facility Condition Assessments (FCAs) along with Accessibility Assessments (AAs) for approximately ten buildings within the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville. The buildings varied from offices (such as Town Hall) to community centers, ice-rink arenas, fire halls, and operations centers.

The primary objective of the project was to provide the Town with an updated asset management plan reflecting the current condition of each building. The condition data was captured using Capital Asset Management (CAM) software, facilitated by electronic handheld devices. Simultaneously, Accessibility Assessments were conducted to identify and track accessibility barriers in compliance with Ontario Building Code (OBC) and Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act (AODA) standards.

A custom checklist approved by the Town was utilized during the walk-through to highlight these barriers. Noncompliances were logged into the CAM software as accessibility improvements, prioritized against upcoming capital renewal events.

Roth IAMS provided CAM published reports along with data exports in Excel format outlining the capital renewals required over the next 30 years. The successful completion of this comprehensive assessment not only met the immediate needs of the Town but also sparked interest in utilizing CAM software for ongoing funding and capital renewal management.

The Facility Condition Assessment and Accessibility Assessments conducted by Roth IAMS for the Town of Whitchurch-Stouffville exemplify a successful partnership aimed at enhancing asset management practices and ensuring compliance with accessibility standards. By delivering thorough assessments and comprehensive reports, Roth IAMS not only met the Town’s immediate needs but also positioned them for long-term success in managing their infrastructure assets. This project underscores Roth IAMS’ commitment to delivering innovative solutions that drive client success and community impact.
