Maintenance Resource Prediction in the Facility Life-Cycle Process

Abstract

Estimates of maintenance resources are needed during all phases of the Army facility life-cycle: planning, design, operation/maintenance, and demolition. In the past, estimates that involved maintenance resources have been inaccurate due to the lack of a comprehensive data base containing maintenance costs. To improve this accuracy, the U.S. Army Construction Engineering Research Laboratory (USACERL) has developed a series of maintenance resources data bases which can be used in economic analysis. In addition, models have been devised for prediction of outyear maintenance costs. Computer programs have been developed to automate the data bases and prediction models. This report describes the research and development for this project. Separate USACERL reports present the data contents, computer program descriptions, and user manuals.
