BCAM / WHOLE-BUILDING INTELLIGENCE
Building compliance and asset management software
BCAM is designed to keep assets, obligations, maintenance work, inspection findings and close-out decisions together across a whole building. The aim is a record that shows what happened, who was responsible and what remains open.
BCAM / ONE BUILDING RECORD
A finding travels through several hands.
Consider a changed cable route beside a smoke damper. The diagram shows the relationship between trade evidence and accountable closure; it is a fictional example, not a compliance finding.

SHARED RECORDOne location, linked assets and ownersReview → action → retest → evidence of closure
THE PRACTICAL PROBLEM
A report is only useful when the work behind it remains traceable.
Building owners and contractors need to know which asset was checked, what obligation applied, who found an issue, what action followed and whether the evidence supports closure. Those facts often sit in separate reports, inboxes and registers.
BCAM’s product direction is to keep that chain together while preserving trade expertise and accountable human decisions.
Obligation
Connect the relevant requirement and jurisdiction to the work.
Field evidence
Record what was inspected, found and left unresolved.
Action
Track a defect, repair, review and closure back to the asset.
ILLUSTRATIVE HIGH-RISE WORKFLOW
From an open fire defect to a defensible close-out.
This fictional example shows how BCAM is intended to preserve an audit trail across fire, electrical and mechanical work. It is not a customer record, inspection procedure or compliance determination.
Where AI is used, it can help assemble the record and flag missing evidence for review. It does not sign off the work or turn an unresolved finding into a pass.
Explore an example building recordFind it
An inspector photographs a new cable penetration in a high-rise riser and records its location against the compartment drawing.
Finding open. The photo alone does not establish fire resistance.
Assign it
The building team assigns the finding to the responsible contractor and records the approved detail and evidence the reviewer needs.
The owner, due date and affected barrier stay visible.
Rectify it
The contractor records the installed system and attaches dated evidence. The electrical work order and any affected mechanical interface stay linked to the same location.
Work reported complete. Verification is still pending.
Verify and close
An authorised reviewer checks the installation evidence and reinspection record against the approved detail, then records the decision and its basis.
Close only when evidence supports it. Keep the original finding and the full decision history.

CURRENT STATUS
This is a website preview of the product direction.
Building records, field workflows and Ask Sam are not connected in this preview. BCAM can help organise evidence and follow-up; competent people remain responsible for testing, assessment and compliance decisions.
