Full Reserve Study
Your board needs a current reserve baseline.
A Full Reserve Study is for an association whose existing record cannot support the current reserve decision. It establishes the component, cost, useful-life, capital-timing, and funding baseline the board needs now.
The issued study should make the current reserve position, major capital needs, funding recommendation, open items, and board decisions understandable without requiring the board to interpret a technical workpaper.

- 01
Why Full
Use a new baseline only when the old one cannot carry the decision
If the existing study can support an Update, Ballast should not sell a Full. The engagement starts by confirming which path the record supports.
- 02
What is covered
Build the current capital and reserve record
The accepted scope establishes the components, current cost bases, remaining useful lives, project timing, reserve position, and funding analysis needed for the study.
- 03
What the board sees
Put the decisions before the schedules
The report leads with position, recommendation, near-term capital, major drivers, limitations, and actions before detailed supporting schedules.
- 04
What happens next
Issue one baseline the board can keep using
The completed report becomes the issued reserve baseline. Ask about Ballast Board availability; ongoing service requires separate confirmed scope and terms.
