Helping municipalities manage assets with confidence
AssetCheck is a structured assessment tool designed to help South African municipalities evaluate, benchmark, and improve their asset management practices and is aligned to international standards and local legislation.
Our mission
Municipalities are responsible for trillions of rands worth of public infrastructure — roads, water networks, electrical grids, and buildings. Yet many lack the tools and frameworks to manage these assets strategically.
Asset Check exists to close that gap. By providing a clear, structured maturity assessment, we help municipalities identify where they stand, understand what good looks like, and take confident steps toward better governance and long-term financial sustainability.
What guides us
Every feature and assessment in Asset Check is built around these core principles.
Evidence-Based Assessment
Our methodology is grounded in internationally recognised asset management standards, ensuring every assessment reflects real-world best practices.
Built for South Africa
Designed to align with the Municipal Finance Management Act (MFMA), GRAP 17, and the specific governance requirements facing South African municipalities.
Continuous Improvement
Asset Check is not a one-off audit — it is a living framework that tracks your municipality's maturity over time and guides measurable progress.
Collaborative Research
Developed through active research partnerships with leading academic and energy institutions, ensuring the tool remains current and credible.
