Onsite Inspection and Documentation

What URS documents during the walkthrough.

Water shutoff location tagged and noted, plus photos
Emergency response parking/loading location noted, plus photos
Roof drain observations noted, plus photos
Other utilities inspected and noted, plus photos
IoT device recommendations with notes, locations, and descriptions
Action items — possible leaks, potential moisture issues, and similar areas of concern located and noted, plus photos

Scope notes

Includes one onsite readiness walkthrough, standard visit up to 90 minutes, for accessible common, mechanical, utility, roof/drainage, and response-access areas.

Additional time, unusual access delays, multiple buildings, expanded areas, or return visits may be quoted separately.

2D Floor Plan and Matterport are not included in Essential. Plus adds the annotated 2D Floor Plan, and Pro adds the Matterport 3D Scan Digital Twin.

Loss-prevention opportunities

Your onsite inspection also flags practical loss-prevention IoT opportunities, when applicable.

See the device categories →

Leak sensors at known water-risk points

Point or cable sensors near water heaters, sinks, toilets, laundry rooms, risers, mechanical rooms, and other known leak areas.

Automatic water shutoff valve

Whole-building, branch-line, or unit-level water shutoff equipment tied to abnormal flow or leak detection.

Humidity monitoring in damp or mold-prone areas

Humidity sensors in basements, crawlspaces, storage rooms, laundry areas, mechanical rooms, HVAC zones, or prior moisture areas.

Sump pump high-water, power-loss, or failure alert

High-water, pump-failure, and power-loss alerts for sump pits, elevator pits, basement drainage, or other below-grade water systems.

Freeze or low-temperature sensors

Temperature sensors in exterior-wall plumbing areas, vacant spaces, crawlspaces, mechanical rooms, or freeze-prone rooms.

Alarm or BMS/BAS-connected flood and equipment monitoring

Flood, freeze, humidity, sump, or equipment alarms connected to a monitored alarm panel, building automation system, or building management system.

HVAC condensate overflow sensors

Float switches or sensors at air handlers, fan coils, ceiling units, and other HVAC equipment with condensate pans or drains.

IoT and sensor recommendations are inspection-based opportunities to review, not requirements or automatic add-ons. Water is the number one cause of commercial property loss — 58% of losses in finished facilities, according to FM, the largest commercial property insurer. Carriers reward buildings that reduce that risk: FM applies a 10% premium offset to fund client loss-prevention work. Ask your carrier what it credits.
