Abstract: Advanced asset management systems have emerged as important tools in the management, maintenance and procurement of vehicles for transit fleet operators. This project presents the research undertaken to create an interactive, geographic information system based asset management system for the Alabama Department of Transportation to manage vehicles purchased and operated through section 5310 and 5311 federal grant programs. The benefits of the system for the transportation department include the ability to estimate the overall fleet quality, to identify vehicles that need to be replaced each year, to predict future funding and budgetary needs, and to access other agency information.
