Problems / Solutions

Keeping the thing you already have

The care that was postponed, the shop that only opens when it is already broken, the building with no log. A sealed machine is on the Manufacturing pages. A part you cannot get is on the Resources pages.

Problem

Deferred care

GAO: federal building repair backlogs more than doubled to $370 billion from FY 2017 to FY 2024.

Solution

A schedule of care

Do the next small job on time. A postponed filter is the $370 billion.

Problem

Emergency-only

ASCE 2025: schools D+. Seventy-six percent of school capital went to new construction. Seven percent to land and existing structures.

Solution

A look before it breaks

Walk it. Listen. A midnight call is not a plan.

Problem

A building with no log

ASCE: 20 percent of public schools do not know the construction year of the main building. Fewer than half of states collect representative facility data.

Solution

A log you can keep

Date. Part. Who did the work. A memory is not a record.
