Part 1: Introduction to Asset Management
Public and private agencies face continuous challenges to accomplish more with less as increases in demand, regulatory requirements, infrastructure deterioration, and political and economic forces have significantly outpaced increases in capital and operating budgets. Many of these agencies are turning to Asset Management to cope with these challenges and improve business performance and effectiveness. This presentation will focus on several aspects of developing an asset management system that could help improve performance, reduce long-term costs, and maximize return on investment in infrastructure assets.
Specific topics include (high level overview):
- Strategy and Planning
- Data Collection Methods
- Software Solutions
- Information Management and Decision Support Tools
Implementation examples from state, regional, and local governments will be included.
- When: Tuesday, September 18, 2012
Part 2: Asset Management Data Collection
Technological advances in Asset Management have proliferated over the past 5 years. New techniques including mobile and aerial platforms, automated processes, LIDAR collection, and hardware/software advancements have led to increased efficiencies to support on-going asset data collection. This webinar will discuss both traditional (survey, windshield assessments, etc.) and modern (LIDAR, mobile, etc.) collection strategies that may fit your organizations needs.
