PAFC urges review of centralized asset-management after CPW equipment report
Summary
CPW Director Spina presented roughly ten years of equipment and replacement-history information and the committee discussed evaluating existing tracking tools (Munis, Gordian, fleet-management tools) and exploring a centralized asset-management system covering Town and Board of Education assets.
CPW Director Spina provided equipment and replacement-history information for town buildings, covering approximately the prior ten years, and noted the Town has four monitored generators. Committee members said they need a clearer understanding of how CPW currently tracks equipment, maintenance, age, replacement schedules and costs and whether similar information is available from the Board of Education.
Members discussed the potential long-term benefits of a centralized asset-management system that would include equipment details, maintenance history, useful life and capital-planning information. Existing systems—including Munis, Gordian, and fleet-management tools—will be evaluated before the committee develops any recommendation. The PAFC supported coordinating a future discussion with applicable department heads and stakeholders to identify current tools and information needs.
The discussion frames short-term follow-up: inventory current tools, identify information gaps, and scope options for a system that could align town and BOE asset records to improve capital planning.
