The technical department your strata firm wishes it had internally.
Sentinel does not replace your engineers, contractors, or property managers. It provides the construction-led oversight layer that ties them all together, and the data infrastructure that turns building maintenance into long-term asset performance.
Structured quarterly inspections
Once stabilized, every building enters a quarterly inspection program covering the seven areas where multi-family buildings most commonly fail: roof, water management, envelope, balconies and railings, landscaping, mechanical and electrical exposure, and exterior safety. Patterns of deterioration are tracked over time, not rediscovered every five years.
Sentinel Asset Protection Program
When issues arise between inspections, Sentinel coordinates the right trades, engineers, and consultants, making sure scopes match the problem and emergency pricing is avoided.
Per-building portal
Each building gets its own portal accessible to managers, councils, and optionally homeowners. Inspection history, photos, and condition data. Always one click away.
Structured building data system
Maintenance history, repair frequency, contractor performance, and system deterioration trends are tracked on every building. The result is a portfolio-wide intelligence layer.
Portfolio intelligence & benchmarking
Sentinel benchmarks buildings across your portfolio by age, construction type, configuration, and maintenance history, surfacing underperforming assets and recurring system failures.
How Sentinel protects the strata manager.
Beyond operational support, Sentinel helps protect strata managers from the technical, legal, and reputational risks that arise when building problems occur.
Documentation Protection
Inspection reports create a clear record showing that building conditions were monitored and reported.
Contractor Oversight
Sentinel helps ensure trades working on the building are qualified and appropriate for the scope.
Consultant Selection
We help identify experienced engineers and specialists familiar with multi-family building systems.
Bad-Work Prevention
Ongoing oversight helps detect poor workmanship or incomplete repairs before issues escalate.
Clear Technical Communication
Sentinel helps translate construction issues so managers are not forced to interpret them alone.
Risk Transparency
Councils receive clear explanations of issues, demonstrating responsible management decisions.
Dispute Protection
Detailed reports and condition tracking provide objective documentation if disagreements arise.
Post-Repair Verification
Sentinel verifies completed work and documents outcomes against the building record.
Budget Justification
Documented condition data supports maintenance budgets and reduces council pushback.
Fiduciary Protection
Documentation demonstrates proactive oversight and reduces exposure to disputes and liability.
Contractor Quality Tracking
