The BLUEFIN Way
Following our 6 Steps to Success process ensures that we meet our clients’ goals and deliver measurable results. BLUEFIN has implemented this solution on over 20,000 buildings and half a billion square feet of combined roof area for clients in the retail, financial services, education, manufacturing, military and government sectors.

Set Program Goals and Strategy
In order to determine the best approach to managing your roof portfolio, we provide an opportunity assessment – a quick and simple feasibility study to gauge the potential for a portfolio approach to provide meaningful benefits to your roof management process.

Assess and Score Roofs
Using a Patented Process
What kind of roofs do you have? How are they performing? How do they compare to your peers? How long will they last? Where are your weak points? What strategies could be employed now to make them perform better, last longer, cost less, and save energy? How do these strategies align with your business operation and long-term facility plans? BLUEFIN’s patented Roof Express© roof assessment technology provides all the information needed to answer these key strategic questions and it provides the detailed information needed to develop and deploy a roof management program specifically tailored for your buildings and your organization.

Perform Preventive Maintenance
More than half of roof leaks and roof-related problems are directly tied to neglected roof maintenance. BLUEFIN’s roof technicians perform roof maintenance and correct maintenance items while we do the inspection – all for a firm fixed price that is understood and agreed upon up front. An immediate 50% reduction in leaks and roof-related emergencies is common. And, as a result, your roofs are immediately positioned to perform better, last longer, and cost less.
|FOUR|
Set Priorities, Optimize Budgets and Build Implementation Plans
Once we determine where you can save, BLUEFIN’s project planning determines how.
We set priorities for low-cost maintenance and repair to extend roof life, itemize deferred maintenance and repair items that need immediate attention, identify roofs that are candidates for long-term restoration in lieu of roof replacement, and prepare detailed 10-year budgets and implementation plans for all of these activities.
|FIVE|
End-to-End Project Management
There is a lot going on in a comprehensive roof management program. A dedicated BLUEFIN project management team stays with your program from beginning to end. They orchestrate the entire project, coordinating resources and getting people, materials, and paperwork to the right place at the right time. You will have a single point of contact whenever you need an answer.
|SIX|
Track Results & Ongoing Improvement
After completing a roof management project, we help you ensure it delivers as promised. In addition to immediate evaluation and verification, each BLUEFIN program includes follow-up and support for on-going improvement. We actively maintain the relationship – visiting your sites, evaluating roof performance and checking that your personnel are equipped to maintain that performance in the course of their day-to-day responsibilities. BLUEFIN guarantees that implementing our 6 Steps to Success process will deliver monetary savings and better-performing roofs.
