REPORT OF OMTS COMMITTEE CHAIR
Operations, Maintenance and Technical Services Committee Chair Jim Ferryman welcomed the
Directors to attend the meeting to hear the discussion on the Asset Management Improvement
Program . The Directors were reminded that only OMTS Directors would be voting on items that
evening and those items would then be considered at the April 23, 2003 meeting .
OMTS03-18 Advanced Asset Management Program
OCSD staff members Doug Stewart, Bob Ooten, and Dave Ludwin, along with Parsons/GHD
consultants Lynn Norton and Roger Byrne, gave a presentation on the proposed advanced asset
management program .
Directors asked several questions regarding the presentation : why can't staff do this without a
consultant; why do this now; why does it take ten years to educate staff; how was the consultant
selected; has Parsons done this before; why not solicit competitive bids; what does the District get
from this contract; and why so many hours? Directors were assured they would receive reports on
a regular basis on the progress of the program . The OMTS Committee requested a presentation
be provided at the April 23, 2003 meeting of the Board of Directors and to provide several real
examples of cost savings from other agencies .
ADJOURNMENT:
The OMTS Committee Chair declared the meeting adjourned at 9: 1 O p.m .
