3. Tillamook, OR Worst road condition of all 36 counties in Oregon More roads in Fair & Poor condition than Good or Satisfactory Federal forest funding disappearing

4. What Do These Agencies Have in Common? Inadequate funding for preserving asset conditions Primarily “reacting” Didn’t have the information needed to “tell their story” A champion initiated a different way of doing business

5. Different Way of Doing Business Tell Your Story More Effectively Change The Way Assets Are Managed  Document needs  Improve accountability in decisions  Assess and manage risk  Make better use of technology  Better respond to changes in standards  Increase service life  Improve performance  Preserve asset value  Reduce annualized costs

11. What is Transportation Asset Management? A strategic and systematic approach to managing transportation infrastructure. It focuses on business and engineering processes for resource allocation and utilization, with the objective of better decision making based upon quality information and well-defined objectives

12. 2-12 A Resource Allocation and Utilization Process Policy Goals and Objectives Analysis of Options and Tradeoffs Resource Allocation Decisions Financial Staff Equipment Other Program and Service Delivery System Condition and Service Levels Funding Levels Customer Input Preservation Operations Capacity Expansion

13. Principles of Asset Management 1. Policy driven Decisions should be tied to strategic goals 2. Performance based Condition goals should be based on current conditions and expected funding 3. Option oriented All feasible options for using funds are considered 4. Data driven Decisions are based on quality data 5. Transparent Factors influencing decisions are known

14. 5 Core Questions 1. What is the current state of our assets? What do we own? Where is it? What condition is it in? What is the remaining service life and economic value? 2. What is the required level of service? What do stakeholders demand? How different is this from actual conditions? 3. Which assets are critical to sustained performance? How do these assets deteriorate? What are the likelihood and consequences of deterioration? 4. What are the feasible strategies to consider? What repair options are most feasible for our agency? How do these strategies impact system performance? 5. Which long-term funding strategy should be selected? Does the selected strategy align with policy goals?

27. Defines objectives Reduces life cycle costs & risks Improves accountability Increases transparency Improves data management Synergizes decision- making AMP Benefits Asset Management Plans (AMP) A document for one or more assets that: –Identifies current and projected asset conditions –Summarizes factors impacting asset performance –Describes long-term options for preserving assets –Builds the business case for asset management strategies that are policy driven

28. Asset Management Plans Background Description of services provided Description of current & targeted conditions Program descriptions Financial requirements & funding strategies Performance metrics Commitment to users

29. A Strategy For Every Agency Tools are available to help any agency move forward with asset management concepts Agencies should start simply and build their capabilities with time The most important first step is moving away from a worst-first philosophy Worst First Asset Management
