Solutions · Across the lifecycle

One record for the whole life of an asset.

Buildings change hands, are built, handed over, maintained, upgraded, expanded and eventually taken down. Every stage depends on knowing what is there. viabo gives each stage an accurate starting point — and keeps the record for the next one.

Stage 01

Acquisition, due diligence & sale

Before a property changes hands, both sides need to know what's really there and what state it's in.

viabo support

  • A complete, dated record of plant, services and fabric before settlement
  • Condition documented with visual evidence for valuers, insurers and lenders
  • Remote inspection for investors and advisers who can't visit
  • Selling? Hand the buyer the same record and shorten the process

Stage 02

Pre-construction, feasibility & design

Designs go wrong when they're drawn over plans that don't match the site. Start from what's actually there.

viabo support

  • Existing-conditions capture for sites with old, paper-only or missing drawings
  • Accurate measurements for feasibility, scoping and design briefs
  • Proposed designs and equipment placed in the real space to test fit and clearances
  • Every stakeholder reviewing the same, current picture of the site

Stage 03

Construction

What's installed behind walls and above ceilings is invisible once the building is finished — unless it was captured first.

viabo support

  • Progress captures compared side by side across dates
  • Services recorded before walls and ceilings are closed in
  • Remote progress checks for owners, consultants and project managers
  • Dated evidence that helps resolve variations and disputes

Stage 04

Practical completion & handover

Most developers are judged on what they build; the best are remembered for how their buildings perform after completion. A digital handover sets a new benchmark.

viabo support

  • A permanent record of common property, basements, plant rooms and commercial areas
  • Delivered condition documented — valuable throughout the defects period
  • Manuals, data sheets and drawings attached to the assets they belong to
  • Base-build documentation for commercial tenants and their future fit-outs
  • A clean start for owners, strata, building managers and FM providers

Stage 05

Operations & maintenance

The first years of operation are the most demanding — and car parks, common areas, building services and plant carry most of the maintenance, inspection and defect workload for decades after.

viabo support

  • Assets located, identified and documented before a contractor is sent
  • Defects and issues pinned to the exact spot, with evidence
  • Contractors briefed remotely, with better accountability for the work
  • Condition and maintenance status recorded against each asset
  • Recaptures compared side by side to monitor facility condition over time

Stage 06

Lifecycle & capital planning

Capital plans are only as good as the asset data behind them. The strongest are built on what is actually installed.

viabo support

  • Asset age, condition and quantities recorded from the real site, not old schedules
  • Registers exported to established financial and capital-planning tools
  • Priorities backed by visual evidence that finance and boards can see
  • Comparable data across sites for portfolio-level decisions

Stage 07

Upgrade & refurbishment

Refurbishments and services upgrades start with an audit — and succeed or fail on how accurate it is.

viabo support

  • Mounting heights, spacings and clearances measured without return visits
  • Services and lighting audits with every fitting counted and located
  • New fittings and equipment placed in the record to check fit before install
  • Before-and-after captures that document the outcome — and the return on it

Typical services

Stage 08

Expansion & reconfiguration

Adding space, moving equipment or re-planning a floor means fitting something new into something existing.

viabo support

  • New layouts, racking, displays or equipment tested against the real space
  • Existing services and structures located before work begins
  • Extensions tied back to the same record as the original building
  • Stakeholders sign off on a layout they can see in context

Typical services

Stage 09

Decommissioning & demolition

Even at the end of its life, a building's record has value — for the teams taking it apart and for whatever comes next.

viabo support

  • A complete record of what's in the building before strip-out
  • Inventory of equipment and materials that can be salvaged or reused
  • Services located before isolation and removal
  • A permanent archive of the building after it's gone
