Asset Management as a Strategic Decision-Making Tool in DelDOT

Asset management has been receiving greater attention at both the state and national level. Escalating demands by the public for increased accountability, aging infrastructure, increasingly constrained resources, new funding challenges, and increasing emphasis on the private provision of public service and public-private partnership all point to the need for asset management. Asset management is a data driven process that is rooted in comprehensive inventory of physical assets and their condition, and the quantification of the impacts of alternative decision.
