To better understand maintenance costs as an element total life cycle costs, collect or record data in a manner that links use of labor equipment and materials to specific assets. Identify relationship between asset condition and maintenance costs.
Teams for each Asset Type Led by Maintenance Managers Representation including: ◦ Field leadership ◦ Specialty office experts ◦ Maintenance office ◦ MnIT ◦ Finance ◦ Performance measures ◦ Asset management specialist
Pavement Management System predicts an increase of 85% of roads in “poor” condition in the future. We know this means more patching, but how much? What are future maintenance costs for the agency? Would it prompt us to re-evaluate our plans for capital investment?
Improve understanding of maintenance costs by asset and impact of maintenance actions on life cycle Support statewide, district, sub area work planning and budgeting, staffing planning and budget needs. This supports “Telling our Story”

Purchase a commercial “off the shelf” software program Replace dated and poorly integrated existing systems Automated Facilities Management System (AFMS) first, phase in additional systems Vision is for a high level of integration May provide opportunities to simplify or streamline recording tasks.

There is a great deal of activity in the area of asset management both nationally and in Minnesota. We have been managing assets as long as we have been an agency. Recent efforts are to be; ◦ More comprehensive ◦ Better planned ◦ Better integrated ◦ More financially effective ◦ More transparent
