Our main Technical Audits are:

To maximize the economic performance of any golf course, it is essential that the greenkeeping budget is perfectly organized, sized and optimized in accordance with the goals set. Through the economical audit, we analyze the most important defining parameters of the maintenance/greenkeeping budget, assessing on their suitability, pointing out the possible existing issues, and formulating the pertinent recommendations to optimize it. This audit mainly covers aspects such as:

• Analysis of budget items corresponding to the Maintenance Plan

• Human resources management analysis

• Analysis of the workshop and machine pool management

• Analysis of warehouse management and purchasing management

• Analysis of water and energy consumption

• Analysis of planned investments

• Development of the Maintenance Standard Plan

GOLFWORKS evaluates both the hydraulic and electrical elements of the irrigation system (layout, sizing, materials, condition, operability, water quality…) as well as its management through the central control software. This audit aims to effectively document the status and performance of the irrigation system, serving as a basis for optimizing system management, improving water application, minimizing water use and energy cost, as well as enlarging the system components lifespan.

• Comprehensive evaluation of the components of the irrigation system: intakes, pumping station, hydraulic network, controllers, wiring…

• Review of all the irrigation stations: (number of sprinklers, model, stator, nozzles..) and creation of a new database

• Optimization of the irrigation software configuration: update of the database and its programming (irrigation window and flow management)

• Irrigation uniformity test at the different playing areas

• Evaluation and analysis of water supply sources

• Energy quantification and assessment 

Scopes an evaluation of all the processes involved in the operation of the golf course, both from a technical and economic point of view. . 

In the audit process, the training and performance of the maintenance staff is evaluated, as well as the suitability of the agronomic plan (fertilization, phytosanitary plan, labours plan…), purchasing management, irrigation and water system management, state of the machine pool, etc.
