When does each big replacement land, and for how much?
Your boilers, roofs and windows are all counting down. Tell us roughly where each of your estate's eight big-ticket systems sits in its life. No asset register needed.
You'll see when each liability arrives, what it costs at today's prices, and the amount your trust should notionally be setting aside every year. Two minutes, nothing sent anywhere.
1. Your estate
2. Where does each system sit in its life?
Answer for the estate overall, worst-first if schools vary. "Don't know" is a legitimate answer, and an important one.
When it lands
Each system placed by remaining life, costed at today's indicative replacement prices for your estate.
Why this list is your CIF pipeline
Everything in the "due now" and "within 5 years" zones is a future Condition Improvement Fund bid or School Condition Allocation decision, and bids are won on evidence: condition data, fault history, quotes, photographs, a maintenance record that shows the asset was looked after. The trusts that win funding are the ones that can produce that file on demand. The time to start building it is before the asset fails, not the week the bid window opens.
Turn this guesswork into an asset register that maintains itself
FMProof holds every asset per school (install date, expected life, service history, every fault ever logged against it) so this forecast stops being a finger-in-the-air exercise and becomes a live report. Every planned service and reactive repair attaches to the asset automatically, which is precisely the evidence file a CIF bid needs. From £650 per school per year on Silver, inside the Microsoft 365 your trust already owns.

Basis: indicative replacement costs at today's prices per school (primary / secondary): heating plant £120k/£350k, roofs £300k/£1,000k, windows & external doors £200k/£600k, electrical distribution £150k/£500k, fire alarm & emergency lighting £40k/£120k, hot & cold water services £100k/£300k, catering kitchens £60k/£150k, lifts £80k per secondary. Typical service lives of 15 to 35 years by system. These are planning figures for a board conversation, not a condition survey or a quotation. Your condition survey and professional advice take precedence.
