This book was released on 1995 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report documents and presents the research approach used in the development of the guidelines for the Public Transportation Facilities and Equipment Management System (PTMS). The research agency conducted a representative survey of stakeholders who are involved in developing a PTMS in various states, and combined this information with the latest advances in facilities management systems to develop a set of guidelines appropriate to states and transit agencies of all modes and scales. A step by step procedure for developing a PTMS is outlined in the guidelines, along with additional industry sources for measures and standards, and examples of analytical methods for evaluating the data collected.
Download or read book Measuring the Benefits of Implementing Asset Management Systems and Tools written by Sue McNeil and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although transportation agencies in the U.S. have been developing Asset Management Systems (AMS) for specific types of infrastructure assets, there are several barriers to the implementation of AMS. This paper documents the development of a generic methodology for quantifying the benefits derived from implementation of AMS and justifying investment in AMS implementation. The generic methodology involves three analysis methods: descriptive analysis, regression analysis, and benefit-cost analysis. This paper demonstrates how the methodology can be applied to evaluate the implementation of a pavement management system in terms of efficacy, effectiveness, and efficiency (3Es).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "TRB's Transit Cooperative Research Program (TCRP) Report 157: State of Good Repair: Prioritizing the Rehabilitation and Replacement of Existing Capital Assets and Evaluating the Implications for Transit presents a framework that builds upon a set of fundamental concepts and provides a basic set of steps for transit agencies to follow when evaluating and prioritizing capital asset rehabilitation and replacement investments. In addition to the printed report, an analytical approach and set of spreadsheet tools were developed to support the framework. These tools address how to evaluate rehabilitation and replacement actions for specific types of transit assets, and how to prioritize candidate rehabilitation and replacement actions."--Publisher's description.

Divided into two parts, Part one focuses on leadership and goal and objective setintg, while Part two is more technically oriented. Appendices include work sheets and case studies.
Download or read book Asset Management Implementation Plan and Tiered System Process written by Michael J. Markow and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study has developed a five-year transportation asset management plan for the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT). This study has also developed a proposed tiering structure of the state highway system to support asset management. Asset management represents a strategic approach to managing transportation infrastructure. It embodies a set of principles to improve how an agency conducts business, how it reaches decisions, and how it processes, uses, and communicates information. CDOT, in consultation with the Colorado Transportation Commission, has already taken a number of steps toward improved asset management. A unique Investment Category approach organizes program investments within a policy-oriented framework incorporating explicit measures of performance. Other steps taken by CDOT include updates of the statewide planning process and the program prioritization process, establishment of maintenance program levels of service, institution of customer surveys, and updates of relevant information technology applications. The recommended transportation asset management plan builds upon these established concepts, methods, information, and tools to propose specific actions over the next five years in the following areas: (1) completion of all elements of the Investment Category structure; (2) incorporation of asset management principles in CDOT's planning and programming processes, building on a tiered structuring of CDOT assets that has also been recommended in this study; (3) integration of asset management information on a GIS platform, and renewal of Information Technology strategic planning to support asset management department-wide; and (4) strengthening of program delivery mechanisms and measures. The recommended tiering of the state highway system is built around the concept of interregional corridors, because CDOT is the sole provider of significant interregional highway transportation.

Download or read book Transit Asset Management written by Michelle Calvillo and published by Nova Science Publishers. This book was released on 2014 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For some time, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) and the U.S. transit industry having been working to improve the understanding and practice of transit asset management. There is considerable evidence that this is a critical area of focus. Improving transit asset management is now a national policy. To advance transit asset management, this book provides a transit-specific asset management framework for managing assets individually and as a portfolio of assets that comprise an integrated system. The book provides flexible, yet targeted guidance to advance the practice and implementation of transit asset management. This book also examines the extent to which selected transit agencies follow leading asset management practices to prioritise capital investments, and challenges in using these practices, the extent to which these agencies measure the effects of capital investments, and FTA initiatives to support transit agencies' use of leading practices.
