Operational Impact
The partnership with Ameresco allowed the City of Boulder to establish a long-term capital plan and quantify the deferred maintenance of their facilities portfolio. The use of the AssetPlanner® software solution provided a comprehensive needs analysis, which was a key component of Boulder’s acclaimed facilities master plan (FMP). The FMP included portfolio tiering, a decision development model that incorporates objective scoring and tiering of facilities against six guiding principles to prioritize them for strategic direction. The city also set a national example of preservation of embodied energy through adaptive reuse, exceeding its own sustainable deconstruction ordinance requirements by achieving nearly 90% waste diversion in a redevelopment project. | |
