Abstract:

A management goal in every Secondary Road Department is to optimize the work performance of its employees. To be most effective, everyone in the department needs access to all the information about the soft assets used to do their jobs and effective communications with other staff. While this has long been accomplished via paper records, radios, phones and end-of-day discussions, this has created inefficiencies within the department. To respond to this challenge, the Iowa County Engineers Association (ICEA) Computer and Information Technology Committee created a vision of a web-based set of tools that would help optimize the functioning of secondary road department maintenance assets. The Iowa County Engineers Association Service Bureau (ICEASB) with its team of web-based computer developers, worked closely with the ICEA Computer and Information Technology Committee to create several new computer applications that help manage the soft assets of a secondary road department. This suite of applications makes up the Operation Management System (OMS) hosted on the ICEASB website.
