Your renewal bill is the size of a year's revenue. Can your asset register defend it?

$65–68B

Replacement cost of Australian local government assets in poor condition — broadly equal to the sector's entire annual revenue.

The problem

Condition assessments are slow and expensive, so registers get built for depreciation, not decisions. Fifty $100 valves become one line item. When one fails, its cost can't be reconciled to the asset base.

What changes

A technician captures each asset in under 2 minutes with MentorLens — photos and a short video. AI produces a Level 2 condition report and a qualified engineer validates it. Your whole network, captured by field crews and capital works contractors.

What finance gets

Each asset with its own condition score, remaining useful life and replacement cost — fed into the finance or ERP system you already run. Keep your system as the book of record. We make the numbers in it defensible.

Our Consultancy

Engineers first. Software second.

We're engineers and operators who have built, run and maintained the infrastructure we now help clients manage. We implement the improvements we recommend — practical outcomes, not theoretical advice. For larger scopes we draw on a trusted network of specialist subcontractors, each with 15+ years' experience.

Why UNGANCO

Infrastructure needs a proven partner.

Priced Like a Coffee, Not a Consultant

You'll save yourself the stress of collating and justifying the replacement cost of each asset — for about the same price as a double-shot coffee at your local cafe, per asset, per year.

100% Indigenous-Owned & IPP-Compliant

Working with UNGANCO helps government and consultancy clients meet their Indigenous procurement obligations under QIPP.

Proven in the Field

25+ years of relationships inside Queensland local government, water utilities, and remote communities. If it works in Cape York, it works anywhere.

One Standard. Any Subcontractor.

MentorLens enforces a single data capture standard in the field — regardless of who is doing the work. Whether it's your staff or a diverse pool of subcontractors, every assessment follows the same process and produces consistent, comparable data. No more reconciling inconsistent spreadsheets after the fact.
