The November 14, 2022 joint meeting of the AASHTO Committee on Performance Based Management and the Transportation Performance Management Technical Service Program provides an update on the progress of the committee and TSP. The featured topic was the System Mobility and Emerging Technologies (SMET) Joint Subcommittee.

For his longstanding service and contribution to improving the nation's transportation system, AASHTO presented the 2022 Thomas H. MacDonald Memorial Award to Tim Henkel at the 2022 AASHTO Annual Meeting in Orlando, Florida.

This webinar presents the findings from NCHRP Project 23-08 "A Guide for Incorporating Maintenance Costs into a Transportation Asset Management Plan", led by Applied Pavement Technologies. The research includes guidance for state DOTs to develop:

• procedures for identifying, collecting, and managing maintenance cost data
• life-cycle techniques and tools for demonstrating the value of maintenance activities
• strategies to include maintenance activities in 10-year investment plans with measured tradeoffs and benefit-cost analyses
• components of a financial plan displaying 10-year anticipated revenues and investments in capital and maintenance costs

Presentations and speakers include:

• Introductions – Anita Bush, Nevada DOT
• An Overview of NCHRP 23-08 Findings and Guidance - Brad Allen, Applied Pavement Technology, Inc. - Rob Zilay, Dye Management Group, Inc.
• Using Maintenance Quality Assurance Data to Support Asset Management – Morgan Musick, Alabama DOT
• The Role of Maintenance in the Life-cycles of Ancillary Assets – Trisha Stefanski, Minnesota DOT
• Maintenance and Ancillary Assets in CDOT’s Asset Management Plan – Toby Manthey, Colorado DOT

State DOTs are completing their federally required 2022 TAMPs. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL) added additional resiliency-related requirements. States were offered the opportunity to extend the due date of their TAMP to December 2022 to provide time to include the BIL resiliency requirements. In this webinar, three states shared their approaches to meeting the BIL requirements in their TAMPs.

Speakers included:
• Todd Lamphere, Washington State DOT
• Mike Johnson, Caltrans
• William Johnson and Toby Manthey, Colorado DOT
• Tashia Clemons, FHWA

The capstone workshop in the NCHRP 23-07 Target Setting series provides a general overview of the guidebook and key lessons about effective target setting methods, including tips for selecting a method and tradeoffs to consider with different types of methods. Deanna Belden, the Director of Performance, Risk, and Investment Analysis at Minnesota DOT, and Edgardo Block, Research and Performance Management Lead at Connecticut DOT, share their experiences with methods such as performance-risk and segment-risk approaches.
