anchor Description
This project provides for the implementation of a Capital Asset Management System to track, monitor, and provide long-range planning for the maintenance and/or replacement of the County's capital stock in a timely and cost-effective manner. The Department of General Services (DGS), has completed an inventory and condition assessment of the County's critical facilities. The Capital Asset Management System will house the asset inventory information and will link to the work order system to update the status of the County's asset inventory. Users can automatically track and schedule maintenance activities, allowing them to operate proactively while reducing downtime and increasing operational efficiency. The Capital Asset Management System will streamline work orders, and provide critical information on facility and asset management for decision making.

anchor Justification
The County's building portfolio consists of over facilities of varying sizes, functions, complexity, and age. This has resulted in significant difficulties in providing timely maintenance and repair, often resulting in unplanned expenses and operational challenges for departments, customers, and the public. Currently, the County does not have a system that provides for adequate tracking of work orders, with information limited to the building level. This in turn affects DGS' ability to adequately plan maintenance schedules, track expenditures and equipment life expectancy. The magnitude of the County's facilities portfolio warrants improvements on its work order management system. The integrated asset management system will produce a listing of the top priority CIP infrastructure asset replacement needs and allow for evidenced-based decision-making.
