As a recipient of federal funds, the Delaware Transit Corporation (DTC), also known as DART, is required to prepare a TAM plan. The TAM Plan involves an inventory and assessment of all assets used in the provision of public transportation. The term “asset” refers to physical equipment including rolling stock, equipment and facilities. The goal of asset management is to ensure that an agency’s assets are maintained and operated in a consistent State of Good Repair. The TAM Plan will be a living document that provides performance goals, implementation and investment prioritization strategies that will provide DTC with tools to continue to manage its assets at optimal efficiency, reducing maintenance and life-cycle costs, informing capital investment decisions, and minimizing risk.
