TAMP Target Setting Workshop August 2017
Workshop Purpose
Pursuant to the Moving Ahead for Progress in the 21st Century Act (MAP-21) and the Fixing America's Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act), Caltrans is tasked with the development of a risk-based TAMP that covers a ten year period. As part of the federal rule, Caltrans must coordinate with the Metropolitan Planning Organizations (MPOs) and relevant other stakeholders that will assist in the establishment of performance targets for NHS pavement and bridges to be included in the California TAMP.

Building the California TAMP Workshop September 2017
Workshop Purpose
The Transportation Asset Management Plan (TAMP) will allow California to maximize results by managing the life-cycle of transportation assets strategically to minimize costs and manage risks. It will provide a framework for understanding performance gaps, prioritizing actions to address the gaps, and establishing business processes that streamline asset management activities. It will also allow us to meet both federal and state legislative requirements.
Caltrans and its regional partners have worked together through a series of workshops to make decisions on the California TAMP. This has included developing strategies and candidate improvements to support transportation goals and objectives, developing a risk register, and determining financial scenarios related to asset condition targets. One of the key concluding steps in developing the California TAMP is to define the organizational and process improvements necessary to further strengthen TAM practice. The Building the California TAMP Workshop held on September 21, 2017brought together a cross section of TAM stakeholders for this purpose, with a focus on the major accomplishments of the TAMP development effort and the gaps and other issues still outstanding. The workshop focused on the following topics:
- Present the components of the TAMP and provide an overview of how each was developed
- Discuss outstanding/open issues and collect stakeholder input on resolving these issues
- Develop/finalize improvement initiatives
- Compose the TAMP story with a focus on the Executive Summary
