Linking strategic goals and asset management for resource allocation and decision making using pavement management

A comprehensive information search was conducted to identify strategic planning goals, evidence of performance measurement and the inclusion of asset management programs, in each of the 50 states. Twelve states were identified as innovative, with highly developed performance measurements, sophisticated strategic planning goals and well-developed asset management programs. The final screening criteria gave preference to programs that had been in place for eighteen months or longer, with clearly defined objectives and evidence of measurable goals. Programs with comprehensive scope and application were given preference. Specific information was gathered about agency’s structure, performance measurement methods, asset management programs and strategic planning practices. Legislation, organizational structure and corporate culture were assessed. Best practices were acknowledged and elements from programs in use today in Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Montana and Pennsylvania were investigated.
