Cultural Resource Management Plans (CRMP)

Service Subtitle

Using 'Smart' Software that maps heritage resources using the latest GIS software.

We critically examine heritage resources, provide condition assessments and propose remedial actions and or advise on conservation methods in line with international best practices.

We then identify areas of concern and flag risk areas. We then formulate a budget-conscious cultural heritage resource management plan taking into account the culture of the community affected by these heritage assets.

Using these heritage management plans ensures the effective conservation of heritage assets i.e. structures, materials, objects, sites and/ graves; this provides for their protection as per the National Heritage Resources Act 25 of 1999.
