How mapping retirement homes helps LendLease manage its 14,000 dwellings

LendLease manage 98 Retirement Living Villages across Australia. These dwellings consist of units, villas, townhouses, duplexes, apartments and are a mix on single and multi storey building. These dwellings provide independent and assisted/serviced homes.

Mipela have been working with LendLease to spatially map these dwellings to allow them to more efficiently manage the portfolio. This time consuming task involved the cadastral boundary capture of each village and the footprint of each individual dwelling. This data is then reconciled against LendLease’s CRM to correctly correlate each dwelling’s information. Being able to visually represent and drill down into the corresponding data provides LendLease staff with the information at their fingertips – knowing what the status of a dwelling is and where it is located within a village.

This data will also feed into their asset management system, providing a baseline of stock availability, refurbishment requirements and proximity to others as part of the natural and built landscape.

GIS Lead for the Property Division, Michael Krause said, “Being able to provide the business with visual tools about our dwellings has multiple benefits for our business. We’re just starting on this journey and the expertise of Neil Briton from Mipela has been invaluable in pulling this all together.”

“Now that we have provided this information to the business via a user friendly dashboard tool, we will be looking to further enhancement the data to assist with asset/facilities management.”
