MQA Peer Exchange October 12, 2004 Maintenance Efficiency & Cost Effectiveness Initiative Robert M. Peda, P.E. Director, Bureau of Maintenance & Operations, PennDOT
The Mission • Reduce Expenses through Improved Efficiency • Continue to provide a seamless level of service to the public • Lower Cost of Operations and Improve Efficiency • Redirect available funds and labor to improve roadways • Use more of the available funds to repair roads and bridges • Lower the average age of equipment to improve the efficiency of Department Force Work • Redirection of labor hours gained from improved efficiency • Proactive Management of Maintenance Programs • Measure, Measure, Measure! = High visibility of results = Accountability = Continuous Improvement
Project Delivery Economic Stimulus Management and Productivity System Preservation How does MECE “connect” with the Governor’s Initiatives for PennDOT? Well maintained Highways and bridges are a key to the efficient and effective delivery of services and goods. The MECE Initiative
