MUNICIPAL ASSET MANAGEMENT

Municipal asset management (MAM) practices maximize the cost-effective use of municipal capital assets over their lifetimes Municipal capital assets include general infrastructure assets such as water and sewer treatment plants, sewer collection systems, stormwater collection facilities, roads, bridges, airports, schools and bridges.

Parsons provides practical strategic, tactical, and operational techniques for acquiring, deploying, operating, refurbishing, replacing, and controlling municipal capital assets. Our asset management technology focuses on valuation, deployment, utilization, priorization, and replace-versus-repair and other asset management decisions. Findings are measured, adapted, and planned and cost-effective actions are reviewed with our clients.

We clearly define municipal assets' levels of service by asset design and maintenance. Levels of service (LOS) are design targets for new assets and maintenance benchmarks for operations. LOS standards establish work processes. Step-by-step instructions are defined for executing operations and maintenance tasks. These targets and benchmarks assist our clients with staffing and equipment levels and determine our client's budget needs.
