St. George campus building assessments
Each building on the St. George campus is audited at least once every five years to assess its age, condition and design compliance, informing planning of and budgeting for future upgrades.
Audits are completed by a specialist firm, in partnership with the property manager and building operator. This ensures that local issues and user experiences are incorporated into the audit.
From this data, we can estimate the cost of fixing a building’s deficiencies (that is, deferred maintenance) and the cost to replace a building entirely (that is, the current replacement value). These costs are then used to calculate the facility condition index for each building.
The facility condition index reflects the relative condition of buildings and allows for cross-industry comparison. It’s also part of the Facilities & Services prioritization framework for deferred maintenance work.
How to interpret the facility condition index
The lower the facility condition index, the better the assets’ condition.
Good: 0–10%
Fair: 11–20%
Poor: 21–30%
Critical: >30%
In 2024, universities across Ontario averaged a three-year facility condition index of 16.36%. The 2024 three-year facilitiy condition index for the U of T tri-campus was 16.01%.
