Write Up:

To carry out its duty to Missouri citizens, MoDOT utilizes facilities systems valued at over $163 million, which is up 14% over the past three years. These facility systems include office buildings, maintenance buildings, cold storage, gasoline/petroleum storage, chemical storage and wash bays. However, many of these buildings lack sufficient storage space, breakrooms, bathrooms or work bays which was specific to the space needing repaired/replaced. In 2023 an unfunded needs list was created to give a more comprehensive building need based on the over 9,400 (increasing to 9,500 currently) building features that are inspected to evaluate their physical condition. This change created a larger percentage of unmet needs which shows the jump from 2022 to 2023. It's important to note that the total value of the facilities' systems does not necessarily equate to the total replacement cost of all the facilities.

For fiscal year 2025, the department has a budget of $12 million for the financial provision of addressing the functional and physical needs of these facilities.

MoDOT uses Capital Improvement and Capital Asset Preservation strategies to meet the functional and physical requirements of its facilities. These strategies help maintain a balance between asset management and functionality by systematically evaluating planning and allocating resources to maximize the use and lifespan of its facilities.

Efforts are being made to ensure that all facilities are fully functional by evaluating current and projected physical conditions and combining them with budget planning to extend the life of these facilities. These efforts have allowed MoDOT to repair beyond what needs repairing/replacing over the past year.

Purpose of the Measure:

This measure tracks the functional, physical condition and trends of MoDOT’s facilities. The Functional Condition measures the percentage of maintenance facilities meeting functional goals including the sufficiency of breakrooms, bathrooms, garage bays and cold storage. The Physical Condition measures the quantity and costs of facility systems that require renewal based on annual facility inspections.

Measurement and Data Collection:

Data is collected annually through a review of the Department's long-term Capital Improvements Program and annual facilities inspections. Functional needs are tracked by General Services each year. The goal for Functional Needs is to bring all facilities to sufficiency. Physical needs are tracked through VFA software.  Functional Requirement pertains to needs such as sufficient space for breakrooms, bathrooms, open bays and cold storage.  Facilities Value is the total estimated cost to replace MoDOT facility features. Repair or Replace is the number of facility features that are listed due in FY 2025 or earlier.  Repair or Replace Costs are the estimated costs that are due for renewal in FY 2025 or earlier.
