Facility Auditor - Government

Sports Facility Auditor (SFA) - Government uses mobile technology to capture data and report on sport and recreation facilities and assets anywhere in the world. 

Using a Sports Facility Auditor program offers local government staff, asset and facility managers significant benefits in managing and optimising local sports infrastructure. It provides data-driven insights that help prioritise facility upgrades and improvements, ensuring investments are targeted where they are needed most.

By identifying potential safety risks and facility compliance issues, SFA helps to raise safety and risk issues and reduce potential impact on the community. 

The program also promotes equitable access by assessing facility accessibility, identifying and highlighting potential barriers to facility use and participation. Additionally, it supports long-term asset management planning by guiding maintenance and renewal decisions, ultimately extending facility lifespans and maximizing the value of council resources.

SFA can support local government and other land-owners through informing:

  • Asset Management Planning: Sustainable management and development of public assets.

  • Community Strategic Planning: Long-term plans reflecting community vision and aspirations.

  • Integrated Planning and Reporting: Aligning strategic plans, operational activities, and budgets.

  • Community Engagement: Involving residents in decision-making to ensure transparency and inclusivity.

  • Financial Planning and Sustainability: Prudent financial management for long-term service delivery.

  • Environmental Sustainability: Promoting eco-friendly practices and compliance with regulations.

  • Economic Development: Supporting local businesses, tourism, and employment growth.
