Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

Strengths

Good inventory

Historic maintenance data available

Formal condition assessment process

Deterioration models exist

Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

ChallengesNo standard inventory

No condition assessment protocols

No formal deterioration models exist

Repairs/maintenance record not captured electronically

No direct link between with other asset classes

Not a lot commonalities between assets

Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

SidewalksThe Problem

New business goals to improve Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliance for sidewalks

Need for quicker and more accurate reporting

Ensure the most critical needs are addressed first

Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

The Solution

ADA GIS Portal

Tool for engineers, planners and maintenance staff that provides a statewide view of ADA compliance

View locations of pedestrian incidents and fatalities, public and government facilities, as well as, areas where improved mobility for the disabled is needed

Provides for quicker and more accurate reporting

Sidewalks

Data Viewer

Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

The Success

Sidewalks

Dramatically reduced the hours neededto create required reports

Evaluation tool to improve the qualityof mobility for citizens with disabilities

Ability to condense projects and streamline funding

Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

Invasive Species

GIS Application

Canada ThistleInventoried thistle sitesusing GPS

Created an GISapplication to view andreport about thistle

Created field map books tobe used to locate thistlefor treatment

Re-inventoried site thefollowing year to measure:

Has the site shrunk, enlargedand/or migrated

How much chemical wasused at each location

Effectiveness of the control strategy

Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

Highway Lighting

Collected Inventory using GPS

High Mast Lighting

Panels

Structures

Researched construction history

Began developing a GIS Application

In the process of creating condition assessment protocols

Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

Moving ForwardAsset Data Warehouse

Create a repository structure to maintain asset history, description and condition information that will be easily accessible to business units throughout SHA

Create basic standard and ad-hoc reports to include summaries of inventory and condition information

Create interfaces with established management systems

Create GIS application that brings all assets into one place

Develop and implement asset class specific performance models

Develop cross-program analysis tools utilizing information in the Asset ManagementData Warehouse to support trade-off analysis and performance-based planning andbudgeting for asset management activities

Managing Non-Traditional Asset Classes

Maryland PhilosophyA mix of traditional and non traditional assets,everything can benefit from a data driven asset management approach and philosophy

Signs are affected landscaping, etc. …

Focus on data and data integration, looking at assetsand asset data alone is not as valuable as lookingat them together as they affect each other.

Harness investments, look for opportunities to dolighting, barrier, roadway work and sidewalks allat once
