Data science for strata communities

From static records to dynamic decisions.

Longridge Consultants applies data science to real-world problems, starting with how strata communities plan, maintain and pay for their buildings.

The problem

Strata decisions are buried in filing cabinets.

Minutes, depreciation reports, inspection findings, invoices and contractor quotes sit in separate PDFs. Councils change every year, and what they learned leaves with them. Owners pay the fees but rarely see where the money goes or why.

Our approach

Treat a strata's records as data, not paperwork.

Connect

Connect the records

Minutes, reports, statements and site plans become one structured dataset.

Map

Map the relationships

Every issue links to its building, unit, contractor, budget line and the decision that resolved it.

Decide

Turn data into decisions

Budgets, maintenance schedules and alerts update as the data changes.

The Strata App

One platform for everyone who keeps a strata running.

A shared, living record of your strata. Owners, councils, strata managers, contractors, report writers and insurers work from the same picture of the complex, down to each unit in a 3D digital twin. Everyone sees the same data, and every decision is traceable.

Owners
Each year's spending broken down by task, with percentages
Council
Budget vs spent, outstanding work and overspending at a glance
Strata managers
Statements and invoices organised; quotes requested about three months before the AGM
Contractors
Open bids, clear scopes, site contacts and a place to record findings
Report writers
One-step exports for depreciation and electrical planning reports
Insurers
Reported issues, maintenance records and council mitigation in one place
Realtors and buyers
Document packages showing whether each issue in the minutes was resolved
Bylaws and rules
Answers that cite the federal, provincial, city and strata rules that apply
  1. Onboard your strata

    Plan number, municipality and the bylaws that apply.

  2. Bring in your records

    Minutes, reports, statements, invoices and site plans.

  3. See it connected

    Each issue tied to its building, unit, contractor, budget line and decision.

  4. Plan ahead

    Council adds or defers each recommendation, and the budget updates.

Built for strata managers

Your strata manager stays in charge.

Strata managers juggle many buildings, hundreds of owners and constant deadlines. The Strata App takes on the record-keeping, chasing and cross-referencing.

Managers spend their time on judgment, relationships and decisions, with better information in front of them. The app supports strata managers. It does not replace them.

About

Data science, applied where people live.

Longridge Consultants started with a practical question: why is it so hard for a strata council to know what its buildings need, what it has already spent, and what comes next?

The answer was in the records. They just weren't connected. Longridge builds tools that turn those records into GIS maps, 3D digital twins and live budgets, so councils, owners and managers can make decisions on evidence.
