Durham Public WorksMission

Public Works provides a wide range of services, including street maintenance, engineering design, development review and stormwater quality and infrastructure maintenance.

The Department ensures that the street infrastructure is safe and well maintained, which supports the quality of life and serves as a foundation of a healthy economy.  As guided by the City’s Strategic Plan, Public Works serves as a steward of the City’s physical assets and ensures that residents live in a safe, secure and thriving community.

Durham Public WorksGoals and Objectives

• Communicate clearly to citizens• Evaluate projects against mission:

– Effectiveness– Efficiency– Equitable provision of services

• Visualize commitment to each City district– Expenditure– Progress of work

1/30/2013 Construction CPM Conference 7

GIS IntegrationDesign Goals

• Needs: – Asset database reflects current status of work– Quantify spending by geographic district– Citizen communications

• Constraints:– Disparate systems and practices

• Solution: P6 – GIS system integration– Record GIS facility ID with P6 activity– Summary date and cost information sent to GIS

Futures

• Heat map analysis– Costs, variances by geography

• Use geospatial analysis as an input into engineering estimates

1/30/2013 Construction CPM Conference 26

Lessons Learned

• Establish common practices around common identifiers– Facility ID– Schedule templates

• Appropriate levels of summarization for each constituency– Citizens’ needs vs. engineer’s needs
