Performance-Based Management Approaches for Maintenance: A Guide | Guide/Manual

Asset Management

Transportation agencies have used performance-based management (PBM) for decades to guide strategic decision-making. PBM uses performance data to improve project and program delivery, align decisions with agency priorities, and increase transparency and accountability. Within a PBM framework, strategic objectives are tied to planning, programming, and performance monitoring to ensure investments support agency goals and performance targets. While generalized PBM frameworks apply to maintenance activities, the primary focus of most PBM-based transportation research has been on investing capital funding effectively.

NCHRP Research Report 1188: Performance-Based Management Approaches for Maintenance: A Guide, produced by TRB's National Cooperative Highway Research Program, is designed to help practitioners implement or strengthen maintenance practices that incorporate PBM strategies. The report, along with its accompanying online tools, provides highway maintenance leaders at agencies of all levels of PBM maturity with the information needed to strengthen existing or establish new performance-based maintenance programs.
