Rivervale and Burswood hold some of Perth's newest apartment towers. The Springs precinct, Belvidere Street and the Burswood peninsula near the stadium have filled with high rise and mid rise schemes over the last decade or so, many with large basement car parks, pools, gyms and hundreds of residents. Newer buildings bring their own work: developer handover, defect lists and getting every system documented before memories fade.
Cameron Facilities provides strata building managers for Rivervale and Burswood schemes, working with your strata manager and council of owners from handover onward.
What we see in Rivervale and Burswood strata buildings
Developer handover and defects
The first years of a building are when defects surface and when the council has the most leverage to have them fixed. We inspect, photograph and log every defect, track it with the builder and keep the record the council needs.
Documenting a new building
Manuals, warranties, as built drawings and service contracts are often scattered at handover. We load them into SiteIQ with the asset register so the building's information stays with the building.
Event days near the stadium
Big events change access, visitor parking and contractor timing. We plan visits and deliveries around the event calendar and keep car park access under control.
Shared facilities at scale
Pools, gyms, barbecue areas and large car parks need bookings, cleaning and regular checks. We manage the contractors and keep the facilities safe and open.
How our building manager works in Rivervale and Burswood
Our building manager attends twice a week on set days to inspect the common property, meet contractors and deal with residents in person, with remote support by phone, email and SiteIQ between visits and the 24 hour emergency helpdesk after hours. During a developer handover we add attendance, agreed with the council in writing.
Every visit, work order and inspection is recorded in SiteIQ, the facilities management platform developed by Cameron Facilities. Our staff clock in on site by GPS, photos sit against each defect, and the council and strata manager see open jobs, completed work and upcoming compliance dates in their own portal, with a monthly report on top.

Ten year maintenance plans for Rivervale and Burswood schemes
Towers in Rivervale and Burswood are designated strata companies under the Strata Titles Act 1985 (WA), so they need a ten year plan and a reserve fund, reviewed at least every five years. For a new building the first plan sets the habits for its life: a complete asset register, realistic replacement cycles for lifts, pumps, membranes and pool plant, and a fund that grows steadily. SiteIQ holds the asset register that feeds the plan.
Plans can be prepared and kept current inside SiteIQ, linked to the live asset register. See our 10 year maintenance plan for strata.

Rivervale and Burswood strata building management: common questions
We are about to take handover from the developer. When should a building manager start?
As early as possible, ideally before handover, so defects are inspected and logged while the builder's obligations are fresh and every manual and warranty is collected.
How do you handle event days?
We schedule visits, contractors and deliveries around the event calendar and keep car park and visitor access managed, with the 24 hour helpdesk available throughout.
Can you build our asset register?
Yes. We record every major asset in SiteIQ with its location, age, warranty and service history, and use it to build or review the ten year plan.
We also provide strata building management in Perth CBD, East Perth, West Perth, South Perth, Subiaco, Fremantle, Victoria Park, Mount Lawley, Scarborough, Applecross, Joondalup. See every suburb on our strata building management by suburb page.
