Army Roof Management and Improvement Opportunities.

Abstract

The amount of operations and maintenance (O&M) funding spent to repair and replace roofs makes up a significant percentage of the Army's overall maintenance and repair budget - about $200 million annually. Systemic, integrated solutions offer the Army a great opportunity to save millions of dollars annually in repair and replacement costs, and to avoid incidental costs incurred due to interrupted building occupancy, water damage to interior furnishings, etc. This report discusses current Army business practices for roof management, investigates technology needs, and identifies opportunities for evolving Army roof maintenance activities into a comprehensive roofing asset management program that will address gaps in current practices.
