  • The property team at Kinetic Business Centre wanted clear visibility of the condition of their roof and building envelope, while also capturing high-quality aerial visuals of the site. They were looking for insights that could inform maintenance planning and help showcase the centre in a professional way.

    • High-resolution aerial imagery from multiple angles

    • AI-assisted analysis to support asset management decisions

    • RICS-aligned reporting with a baseline register for future comparisons

    • Capture of aerial footage for promotional use

    • A professional RICS-aligned inspection report and photographic register

    • Defect register with risk grading and recommendations

    • Marketing-ready aerial visuals to showcase the site

    • Enabled evidence-based planning and lifecycle forecasting

    • Reduced risk by removing the need for staff to access the roof, in line with HSE guidance

    • Delivered both technical and promotional outputs from a single safe inspection
