- A pilot program is currently underway with the Queens and Brooklyn Public Library Systems.

Last year at this hearing, DDC discussed advanced capital planning, ACP, which is how we work with other agencies to provide the information and technical expertise they need to plan holistically for the long term maintenance and necessary upgrades of their capital assets.

This type of overall capital planning as opposed to work being done on a piecemeal or project to project basis holds great potential for the city to save time and money on future projects.

ACP has three main elements.
4:52:37
A new data portal we created that compiles already available public buildings data in one location.
4:52:44
A method to gather the data that we don't already have to us available us including inventories of mechanical equipment or whether a building complies with the American with Disabilities Act, the ADA.
4:52:59
And using data to support holistic capital planning across agency portfolios of properties guided by DDC's technical and engineering expertise.

All three elements are moving forward and we currently have a pilot program with the Queens and Brooklyn Public Library Systems.

We will continue to grow the overall program.
