providing a cloud Software as a Service (SaaS) application on a cloud server network device with one or more processors including services for capital management for an assembly photographic collection on a cloud communications network, the SaaS for:
(1) creating an assembly photograph collection with capital management information for a building,
the assembly photographic collection including a plurality of digital photographs for a plurality of assemblies for the building,
the plurality of assemblies including one or more selected capital assets or building components for the building,
the plurality of assemblies including one or more individual assemblies for structures, shells, interiors, services, equipment and furnishings and general sitework for the building,
the one or more individual assemblies allowing recording of one or more conditions of one or more individual components in the one or more individual assemblies for the structures, shells, interiors, services, equipment and services and general sitework for the building,
the one or more individual components including a list of one or more associated assets,
(2) receiving collections of assemblies of photographic data via the cloud communications network for the one or more selected capital assets or the building components in the building, including one or more digital photographs relevant to a physical condition or a maintenance condition of the one or more selected capital assets or the building components for the building,
(3) recording in the assembly photographic collection, one or more physical conditions or one or more maintenance conditions obtained during performance of routine inspection or maintenance work associated with the one or more selected capital assets or the building components for the building,
(4) creating for the created assembly photographic collection, one or more lifecycles and calculating one or more cost lines and calculating recurring cost information associated with maintaining or replacing the one or more selected capital assets or the building components in the building with the received collections of assemblies of photographic data including the one or more physical conditions or one or more maintenance conditions recorded in the assembly photographic collection,
the one or more cost lines including a plurality of renewal costs over desired present and future time periods,
the one or more life cycles for the one or more selected capital assets or the building components including risk, severity of failure, quality, year installed, condition and one or more digital photos for the one or more selected capital assets or the building components, and
(5) providing a capital management graphical user interface to display the created assembly photographic collection including the received one or more digital photographs, the created one or more lifecycles, the calculated one or more cost lines and the calculated recurring cost information associated with maintaining or replacing the one or more selected capital assets or the building components for the building included in the created assembly photographic collection;
collecting via the SaaS, one or more digital photographs and a target of photographic data from the one or more selected capital assets or building components for the building on a network device with one or more processors via the cloud server network device via the cloud communications network,
wherein the target of the photographic data includes a name of a selected capital asset or building component for the building;
sending a first message via the SaaS including the collected one or more digital photographs and the target of collected photographic data for the one or more selected capital assets or building components for the building from the network device to cloud server network device via the cloud communications network;
receiving the first message via the SaaS the cloud server network device via the communications network including the one or more collected digital photographs and the target of collected photographic data for the one or more selected capital assets or building components for the building;
processing the first message via the SaaS on the cloud server network device to extract the one or more digital photographs and the target of collected photographic data for the one or more selected capital assets or building components with assemblies for the building;
creating with the SaaS on the cloud service network device, capital management information including creating one or more lifecycles and one or more cost lines and recurring cost information associated with maintaining or replacing the one or more selected capital assets or building components for the building included in the extracted target of collected photographic data from the fist message,
the created capital management information supporting data driven decisions of scheduling future replacements or scheduling of future replacements or major repairs, the extracted target of photographic data used to create a visual timeline of one or more visual conditions of the one or more selected capital assets or building components for the building;
collating and organizing the one or more digital photographs extracted from the first message via the SaaS on the cloud service network device onto the capital management graphical user interface including together with the created capital management information including the created one or more projected lifecycles and the created one or more cost lines for the one or more selected capital assets or building components for the building; and
returning via the capital management graphical user interface on the SaaS the created capital management information and the collated and organized one or more digital photographs extracted from the first message from the cloud server network device to the network device via the cloud communications network for display on the first network device.
