Stop the deferred maintenance spiral before it's too late
From budget battles to data-driven capital planning
Federal deferred maintenance hit $370 billion. State and local backlogs add another $100 billion. Your buildings are aging, your budget is shrinking, and every dollar deferred costs $6 later. Infodeck tracks FCI scores, generates GASB-ready reports, and gives you the data to justify maintenance investments to council.
Sound familiar?
These aren't hypotheticals. They're conversations we have every week with facilities directors and public works managers across municipalities.
"Our Deferred Maintenance Backlog Just Hit $34 Million"
Every year, you present the capital improvement plan. Every year, council approves 20% of what's needed. The backlog grows 7% annually — now it's $34 million and climbing. Your FCI score is 0.65 when it should be under 0.2. Buildings from the 1970s are patched beyond design life. When the HVAC finally fails completely, emergency replacement will cost 6x what preventive maintenance would have.
"Our HVAC Systems Are 35 Years Old"
Your courthouse HVAC was installed in 1989. The manufacturer discontinued parts 15 years ago. Your senior technician who understood the system retired last year, taking 30 years of institutional knowledge with him. Now it's making concerning sounds and you're Frankensteining repairs on repairs. When it fails during July trials, you'll be evacuating judges and defendants alike.
"84% of Us Say Budget Constraints Are Our Primary Problem"
Finance wants to cut maintenance 10% while council demands you maintain 'state of good repair' standards. You're allocating 15-25% of budget to maintenance when standards require 25-35%. Personnel costs eat 45-55% of operating budget. New buildings get bond funding; maintenance competes for what's left. Every dollar you defer creates $6 in future costs — but that's next year's problem.
"GASB Auditors Are Coming Next Month"
You need to report capital assets and deferred maintenance per GASB 34. But asset documentation is scattered across 15 years of filing cabinets, your predecessor's spreadsheets, and that Access database nobody knows how to query. The auditor wants FCI scores for 200+ buildings. OSHA is asking about fire safety compliance. ADA inspectors flagged accessibility issues. You need an audit trail — yesterday.
"Parents Are Demanding Modern School Facilities"
The news ran a story on 'crumbling schools.' Parents are at council meetings demanding answers. Your school buildings average 49 years old — more than 50% have never undergone major renovation since construction. You have $55 million for maintenance when industry standards say you need $227 million. Citizens see deteriorating facilities and question where their tax dollars are going.
