management and work management. In FY 2016, and FY OCI Rollout Complete July 2018
2017, PARD expanded its utilization of Cartegraph by OCI Audit Sept. 2018
completing the following objectives:
A. Developed an asset structure that identified the
asset types to be collected, the attributes for
each asset type, and the parent/child
relationship for each asset type
B. Created work flows for creation of tasks and
work orders
C. Rolled out iPads to 50 field staff to allow real‐
time utilization for both asset management and
work management
D. Completed asset collection initiative to capture
additional asset data

In FY 2018, PARD will further expand utilization of
Cartegraph to develop and implement an Overall
Condition Index (OCI) program for identified PARD assets.
OCI is a condition index that allows for data‐driven
decisions related to repair and/or replacement of assets.
This program will consist of the following:
1. Develop the structure of the OCI program by
determining which asset types will apply, what
parameters will be measured, what frequency
will assessments occur, and any other applicable
parameter
2. Roll out OCI program by performing condition
assessments on specified asset types
3. Complete recurring audit activities to ensure the
OCI program is gathering the intended data and
improving the related decision‐making

Update:
PARD has partnered with UTA College of Engineering as assets, totaling 182 assets at 60 parks.
