City of Vancouver Asset Management - Asset Management System Functionality
Terminator Description
'Asset Management System' represents the systems that support decision–making for maintenance, upgrade, and operation of physical transportation assets. Asset management integrates and includes the pavement management systems, bridge management systems, and other systems that inventory and manage the highway infrastructure and other transportation–related assets. The types of assets that are inventoried and managed will vary, and may include the maintenance and construction vehicles and equipment as well as 'soft' assets such as human resources and software. Asset management systems monitor the condition, performance, and availability of the infrastructure and evaluate and prioritize alternative reconstruction, rehabilitation, and maintenance strategies.
