PDHs AVAILABLE

WHAT THIS IS ABOUT

The large inventory of aging roadways and bridges, the dramatic fluctuations in construction costs, the retirement of experienced transportation workers, and the increased competition for available funding have amplified the challenges transportation agencies face as they manage their highway systems. A number of highway agencies have established Transportation Asset Management (TAM) programs to help document asset conditions, to allocate funding, and to determine the most effective use of available funds. TAM programs provide the processes and tools necessary to help transportation leaders make informed project decisions that can improve the overall operational efficiency of the organization. This 2-part workshop covers the basic tenets of an asset management program, how it is useful and looks at pavement preservation strategies.

After completing PART I and II of this workshop, you will be able to:

Evaluate an agency’s asset management practices using the 5 core questions
Build a simple asset inventory
Evaluate the cost-effectiveness of different strategies using condition information
Identify requirements for implementing asset management
Identify tools and resources used to support asset data collection and analysis
Develop components of an Asset Management Plan for a single asset
Use asset management principles to make investment decisions for multiple assets
