The Evaluation and Economic Investment Team's portfolio is primarily focused on three areas: (1) development and promotion of an array of procedures for inclusion in an engineering economic analysis toolbox, (2) identification and dissemination of alternatives for developing data systems to support asset management, and (3) providing assistance with implementation of relevant standards issued by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB). The team is also engaged in outreach activities designed to explain and promote Asset Management.
