ReserveIQ

Welcome to ReserveIQ

Plan ahead. See the reserve pressure before it becomes a surprise.

Building a 10-year maintenance plan by hand means juggling replacement dates, rising costs and reserve balances across spreadsheets. ReserveIQ brings those moving parts into one guided model, helping trustees turn scheme records into a clearer maintenance and reserve-funding outlook.

Explore component costs and replacement timing, review the PMR 22(2)-informed estimate, then compare a forward-looking cashflow that highlights when major works could put pressure on reserves.

You can load a saved .mrmp file from the top menu at any time.

A guided route from records to plan

  1. 1

    Describe the scheme

    Enter the building profile and key reserve-fund figures.

  2. 2

    Review maintenance items

    Check component lifecycles, estimated costs and expected work years.

  3. 3

    Compare the estimates

    Review the PMR 22(2)-informed component estimate alongside the 10-year cashflow outlook.

ReserveIQ supports trustee planning; estimates should be checked against current scheme records, professional advice and contractor quotations.

Trustee quick guide

Keep your scheme work safe and easy to continue

1. Regulation-compliant minimum levy (default)

Finds the lowest Year-1 levy that is never below the Regulation 2 floor and keeps every year-end balance at or above the minimum buffer. The levy then increases each year by the percentage you set (0% = flat). The "Reg 2 floor applied" column shows the floor in force.

2. Goal-seek each year

Ignores the Regulation 2 floor and sets the lowest non-negative levy in each year so the year-end balance lands on the minimum buffer. Years where existing cash and interest already cover the buffer show a zero levy.

Set by regulation

  • The Regulation 2 floor is set by the reserve ratio (opening reserve ÷ prior-year admin levies, A₀). Below 25%: 15% of A₀. From 25% to below 100%: the greater of prior-year reserve spend and the PMR 22(2) annual schedule. At 100% or more: no floor.
  • The PMR 22(2)-informed component estimate: (estimated cost − opening-reserve allocation) ÷ remaining life.
  • The Regulation 2 floor applies to strategy 1 only; strategy 2 ignores it.

Set by ReserveIQ (planning assumptions)

  • The minimum cash buffer is your input and is checked at each year-end, not intra-year.
  • Levies are limited to R25,000,000 per year. Strategy 1 uses your annual increase; strategy 2 solves each year independently.
  • The opening-reserve allocation method (accrued wear or nearest-due waterfall), which changes the PMR 22(2) schedule and so the floor.
  • Benchmark costs, lifecycles, inflation, call-account interest and the simplified interest allowance and 27% tax rate. These are not tax advice.
  • The 10-year horizon, and interest on the average balance during the year.
