Organizational Performance Index (OPI) The OPI tracks the overall performance of the Department in nine key areas. Each District’s performance is compared to one another and to the overall State average.
District Maintenance OPI Maintenance categories are based solely on the 8 MQS categories plus the Customer Satisfaction Survey. Deficiencies per lane mile are associated to ranges which correspond to an OPI score for each Route Type (Priority or General).
District Maintenance OPI Score The District Maintenance OPI Score is calculated by summing the Score times the Weight for the 9 Maintenance categories.
District Maintenance Index Value The District Maintenance Index Value is calculated by dividing the District Maintenance OPI Score by 254.
