RAMP™ ROOF ASSET MANAGEMENT PROGRAM
Stop Reacting to Roof Failures. Start Managing the Asset.
The RAMP™ Roof Asset Management Program converts your roofing portfolio from a reactive expense into a managed,
documented asset with a proven ROI. One annual contract covers risk scoring, gap analysis, phased capital planning,
preventative maintenance, and coordination of every rooftop trade — HVAC, electrical, plumbing, lightning protection, and
abatement — under a single point of accountability..

THE PROBLEM RAMP™ SOLVES
What Unmanaged Roof Assets Actually Cost
| Maintenance Decision | Maintenance Decision | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Defer 1 year of maintenance | ~$4 in accelerated degradation per $1 deferred | Lap failures, drain blockages, flashing separation compound rapidly |
| Emergency repair vs. planned replacement | 2-3x cost premium | Emergency mobilization, temp protection, premium material sourcing, disrupted operations |
| Undetected water infiltration — 6 months | $8-25 interior damage per $1 repair | Insulation, deck, structural, contents, mold remediation |
| Documented maintenance program | Asset value increase | Higher appraisals, lower insurance premiums, stronger NOI for lenders and investors |
| Phased vs. emergency replacement | 30-40% cost reduction | Planned procurement, competitive bids, scheduled mobilization vs. reactive emergency pricing |
| Coordinated rooftop trades | Warranty protection + avoided damage | Uncoordinated HVAC/electrical work is the #1 source of new roof membrane damage |
HOW RAMP™ WORKS — SIX-STEP PROCESS
1. Initial Risk Survey
Comprehensive condition survey of every enrolled building. Photographic documentation, core sampling, infrared moisture scanning, drainage assessment, and flashing/termination inspection. Every building starts with a complete picture.
2. Risk Score Report
Each building receives a Risk Score (1-10). The report includes the score, scoring rationale, and immediate action implications. Buildings scoring 7+ are flagged for expedited remediation planning.
3. Gap Analysis
AOD documents the gap between current roof condition and acceptable condition — what needs to be done, in what sequence, and why. Formatted for internal facilities review, lender reporting, and board or investor presentations.
4. Phased Capital Plan
3-year (Protect tier) or 5-year (Portfolio tier) capital plan sequencing repairs and replacements by priority, operational impact, and budget cycle. Current-year cost estimates, inflation adjustments, and ROI projections. Goal: no surprise capital expenditures.
5. Annual Maintenance Execution
Scheduled inspection and repair visits per the plan. AOD serves as the rooftop general contractor — coordinating HVAC, electrical, plumbing, and lightning protection contractors to protect new and existing roof systems from trade damage. All work documented.
6. Annual Renewal & Re-Scoring
At renewal, AOD re-scores every building, updates the gap analysis, and revises the capital plan. Clients receive a year-over-year comparison showing risk score improvement, deferred maintenance eliminated, and projected cost avoidance
— the documented ROI.
The Art of Dwelling- evaluates roof conditions on federal facilities, municipal properties, and commercial buildings to recommend reroofing or coating solutions that match building needs and budget realities. Schedule a consultation to discuss options for extending your facility's roof performance.
RISK SCORING FRAMEWORK
LOW RISK
1-3
Good condition. Maintenance active. No immediate capex required.
MODERATE RISK
4-6
Deficiencies present. Phased repair plan. 2-3yr replacement horizon.
HIGH RISK
7-8
Multiple failures imminent.
Emergency repair likely within 12 months.
CRITICAL RISK
9-10
Active failure. Immediate replacement. Liability exposure present.
ROOFTOP TRADE COORDINATION — THE RAMP™ DIFFERENTIATOR
The most common cause of premature new roof failure is uncoordinated trade work after installation. AOD makes RAMP™
clients the solution: AOD serves as the rooftop general contractor on all trade work touching the roof.
| Trade | What RAMP™ Coordinates | Why It Protects the Roof |
|---|---|---|
| HVAC | Equipment curb work, condensate drainage, new penetration flashing, curb-raising | HVAC is the #1 source of new membrane damage — unflashed penetrations and standing condensate are primary failure points |
| Electrical | Conduit penetration sealing, equipment power runs, penetration documentation | Electrical conduit penetrations are frequently unsealed — each is a potential leak point |
| Plumbing | Condensate line routing, drain tie-ins, overflow drain maintenance, roof drain rodding | Clogged or improperly routed condensate and storm drains drive ponding — the accelerant of every roofing system failure |
| Lightning Protection | Ground rod and conductor installation, attachment hardware, UL inspection coordination | Lightning protection penetrations must be waterproofed correctly — uncoordinated installation voids warranties |
| Abatement | ACM survey coordination prior to tear-off, abatement contractor scheduling | Asbestos in BUR felts and insulation is common on pre-1980 facilities — must be identified before any roofing scope |
| Specialty Equipment | Lift and crane coordination, protection board installation, travel path management | Heavy equipment on unprotected membranes causes immediate damage — AOD specifies and manages protection board for all moves |
