Leading capital planning and infrastructure projects for counties and municipalities is a tough job. In addition to all the usual complexities around deciding where to invest capital and maintenance budgets across all the competing priorities, you also have the complexity of partnering with your cities.
Should you upgrade the county roads and transit system, or repair the aging water and storm-water runoff systems? And how confident are you that your projects will come in on time and within budget?
Managing a capital planning process is hard. You need to get your idea in front of the executive director and commissioners for approval and funding, with everything locked down in place so that it goes well. Business justification and clear stack ranking? Check. Strong proposals with finances and people identified? Check. You need to manage this process carefully to overcome the first hurdle of getting the funding for your projects.
Once you have approval, how do you ensure capital projects go according to plan? Upgrading roads, building new water systems, and managing large civil engineering projects that crisscross your county or municipality are always at risk of time delays and budget overruns.
