11th National Conference on Transportation Asset Management
CONNECTING RISK AND ASSET MANAGEMENT
TRACK HIGHLIGHTS
2
OVERVIEW • Provide in-depth discussion of the application of risk
management within an asset management context. • Six Sessions
1. Vulnerability, Future and Risk, Oh My! 2. Playing Risk: Practical Applications Integrating Risk and Asset
Management 3. Theory to Practice in Connecting TAM and Risk Analysis 4. Brisk Risk: Real-World Risk Assessment and Analysis in Asset
Management, Real Quick 5. Addressing Climate Change and Extreme Weather Risks in
Asset Management 6. Linking Climate Change to Asset Management Plans and
Systems
3
HIGHLIGHTS • Three key takeaways:
1. Addressing risk at an enterprise and program level within a transportation agency is fairly new. Many different tools, approaches, and frameworks
2. Look at risk holistically. Must be more than a conversation on climate change threats
and weather-related vulnerability assessments.
3. Examine risk and opportunities together. Use a risk analysis as a mechanism to examine opportunities as
well.
4
CLOSING SESSION QUESTIONS
• Within the context of risk… 1. …how is asset management evolving? 2. …how are agencies creating sustainable asset
management programs? 3. …how is technology influencing decisions? 4. …how are data being used to speak to multiple
audiences?
5
EVOLUTION • Risk is adds realism
and credibility to TAM forecasting
• Risk encompasses: Threats, Uncertainty, Variability and Uncertainty
• Risk needs to be considered as another element of allocation decisions
6
7
CREATING SUSTAINABLE PROGRAMS • Risk is another change agent.
o Changing the culture o Changing the structure
• Risk-informed processes inform and make you prepared. o Boy Scout Motto: Be prepared! o Risk analysis is not eliminating risk, but makes your organization
better prepared for threats, uncertainty, variabilities and opportunities.
• Risk management is about creating an overall more resilient system that minimizes system downtime.
8
9
TECHNOLOGICAL INFLUENCES • Many different types of risk
tools and methodologies. • No simple recipe of using
tools or techniques that can be applied to all agencies.
• Need to better utilize visualization techniques to better analyze and structure data.
10
11
DATA INFLUENCES
• Need to improve the overall messaging of the risk data
• Focus on speaking the “political” language to frame needs of existing system
• We need data scientists
12
GAPS & RESEARCH OPPORTUNITIES
• Using risk analysis to focus on opportunities o Need some case study/examples
• How to get data scientists in transportation agencies
• How to implement risk across the enterprise o Cross-cuts an agency o Not simply a new buzzword

DATA, PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENT AND TARGET SETTING
David Schrank Research Scientist
Texas A&M Transportation Institute September 20, 2016
OVERVIEW
• Lots of changes • Technology improving capabilities • Data governance • Performance Measurement • Conclusions
CHANGE – IT’S COMING FAST AND FURIOUS
• Data is an asset • Amount of data (KB, MB, GB, TB, ?) • Not just pavement and bridge data • Users of information at all levels of organizations • More uses come with increased pressures
TECHNOLOGY – LOOK WHAT I CAN SHOW YOU NOW!!!
• Data collection technologies • Storage and database platforms • Analysis options • Reporting capabilities
DATA GOVERNANCE – WHO’S RESPONSIBLE???
• Identify stewards and owners • IT is now involved • Regular updates but also regular validation
PERFORMANCE MEASURES – LOOK AT THE STORIES I CAN TELL!!
• MAP-21 made this important at all levels • Used up and down chain to discuss needs • Combining TAM performance measures with others • Setting targets is whole new ballgame
CONCLUSIONS
• Change • Improving technologies • Growth of TAM information uses
• Questions???
Lessons Learned in the Implementation and Public Transit Tracks Laura J. Zale Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority
Track Summary
• 57 abstracts submitted • 6 sessions with 24 presentations
–3 cosponsored sessions
• 5 poster presentations • Diverse representation from DOT, MPO, agencies,
and practitioners
Two Common Themes
• The State of the Practice is a “Work in Progress.”
• Regulatory Compliance is a Target (but Not the End Goal)
Evolution of the Practice
Implementation and Public Transit Tracks
Evolution of the Practice: Implementation • Continuation of programs that had started before MAP-21
• Approach may vary depending on agency composition and goals – Programmatic – Asset-Class Driven
Evolution of the Practice: Implementation • A shift in culture has enabled evolution.
–Common vernacular
– Increased transparency
–Data-informed decision-making
Evolution of the Practice: Implementation • Moving the Dial: People, Process, and Technology
–Defining metrics for management –Mapping processes to collect data that informs decisions
• Collaboration among agencies
Sustainability
Implementation and Public Transit Tracks
Sustainability: Implementation • Executive Champion is Key.
• Solid Framework is integral to ensuring
sustainability –Shape of the framework will change based on agency
Sustainability: Implementation • Keep it simple.
• Data handoff protocol.
• Customer focus.
Technology
Implementation and Public Transit Tracks
Technology: Implementation • Field Data Collection Methods
–LIDR –Mobile Units
• IT Governance Standard
• Data Integrity and Cost
Data for Multiple Audiences
Implementation and Public Transit Tracks
Data for Multiple Audiences: Implementation • Many “customers” of asset management.
• Data must speak to a diverse audience. –Front Line Staff –Agency Executives –Riding Public –Decision Makers
