Long-term Planning

Manage, schedule and budget the maintenance of your premises

Managing, scheduling and budgeting long-term maintenance for your premises is a complex process. How much budget do you need to maintain your organization's property? When does it become more economically viable to replace company assets rather than repair them? TOPdesk's Long-term Planning module helps you to address all these issues and more.

The benefits of Long-term Planning: 

  • Structure the management, scheduling and budgeting of long-term planning for your organization's premises
  • Record long-term plans in adjustable graphical overviews
  • Document the life cycle of company assets and use it to schedule repairs and replacements
  • Make informed decisions when planning and budgeting by comparing different scenarios
  • Execute maintenance tasks efficiently using the Operations Management module 
  • Compliant with various industry standards

Clear graphical overviews

Stay on top of the scheduled maintenance activities by viewing the schedules in graphical overviews. See which activities have been scheduled for which year and the costs associated. You can adjust these planners with one click, giving you immediate insight into the financial consequences of these changes. What's more, you can create an overview of the scheduled long-term maintenance activities for that year, including (total) costs. 

Schedule maintenance and replacements

You want to take care of your premises and assets while keeping your budget in mind. This means making choices. How often should the façade of your premises actually be cleaned? When is it more viable to replace company assets than continue repairing them? TOPdesk will help you answer these questions and more.

TOPdesk's Long-term Planning module features graphical overviews that let you easily record maintenance activities and schedule replacements of your company's assets. For instance, you can schedule biennial maintenance for a new heating installation for the first ten years of its lifecycle, followed by annual maintenance. Long-term Planning gives you insight into the expected investments, enabling you to manage the life cycle of company assets and draw up a realistic budget.

Record multiple schedules

You can only appreciate the (financial) effects of long-term maintenance planning after having weighed up several options. That is why TOPdesk helps you to set up a range of scenarios for maintenance planning. Determine which activities are carried out for each scenario and when, as well as the costs involved. Finally, choose the best scenario for your situation.
