18 Part 3: Automated Debris Management System
19 AUTOMATED DEBRIS MANAGEMENT SYSTEM (ADMS) Several Vendors begin development USACE releases ADMS specifications for ACI SATOC work ADMS used on USACE mission for Joplin, MO Tornado Advanced ADMS systems introduced for FEMA Severe Winter Storm projects USACE awards new ACI contracts, several new ADMS vendors Pre First used during a USACE debris project FEMA 327 released, recognizing electronic tickets ADMS used on several FEMA projects in Hurricane Isaac USACE updates ACI ADMS specification for 2014 ACI contracts USACE validation of ADMS system against new specification 19
20 ADMS INITIAL CHALLENGES Logistics Cost System performance Reliability Complexity Device integrated features 20
21 ADMS FIELD DESIGN REQUIREMENTS USACE ACI ADMS compliant Performs as fast as paper-based Minimal user input Reliable and resilient Device integrated features Reasonable cost (FEMA 327) 21
22 ADMS COMMON PLATFORMS IOS (iphone) Window Mobile Android Thermal Printers 22

46 Part 4: Federal Requirements for ADMS
47 US ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS (USACE) SPECIFICATION REQUIREMENTS - HANDOUT 1. Load Ticket 2. Database 3. Manual Entries 4. Direct Haul Route 5. Daily Reports 6. Ticket/Tower Applications 7. Truck Certification 47
48 USACE SPECIFICATION REQUIREMENTS - HANDOUT 9. Disposal Site Management Application 10.Field Administrative Application 11.Data Consolidation Application 48
49 USACE SPECIFICATION REQUIREMENTS - HANDOUT 11.Data Consolidation Application (continued) 49
50 Part 5: Case Studies of Debris Technology Innovation
51 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #1 Problem: Hazardous tree removal requires extensive expense and manpower to produce required documentation. QC Checks performed days after Photos missing or mismatched Improper allocation to applicant Tail work following end of field work Invoice processing delays 51
52 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #1 Solution: Automate data collection and photo association combined with in-process quality control (QC) In-process photo review/feedback Geospatial processing and reporting Efficient design = productivity Elimination of tail work Elimination of invoicing error through real-time validation reporting 52
53 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #1 Results: Elimination of tail work reduced post field work labor costs by 43%. On average, monitoring labor cost were 48% lower for a hazard removal using advanced ADMS. Contractor productivity exceeded that of a comparable paper based project when a single monitor was assigned. 53
54 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #2 Problem: Large area debris projects suffered communication and coordination resulting in: Longer periods of field operations Reduced efficiency of the debris removal contractors Poor coordination of debris removal in communities 54
55 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #2 Solution: A common operating picture portal with views showing real-time field operations: Geospatially based web services Perspective based views (layers) Communication and coordination training Public information and outreach 55
56 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #2 Results: 15% increase in ROW cubic yards collected per monitor/hour Enhanced public information and coordination 10% reduction in project administrative costs when pass tracking and reporting is required 56
57 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #3 Problem: Large metro area traffic impacts debris removal productivity: Haulers not meeting productivity goals Excessive idle time for debris monitors Higher fuel costs for haulers Unable to meet agreed schedule 57
58 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #3 Solution: GIS Transportation Analysis of DMS site locations Road network combined with traffic analysis to determine DMS coverage Debris concentration analysis using Census data to locate DMS closer 20 minute one-way standard to achieve require productivity Traffic avoidance in routing to DMS 58
59 TECHNOLOGY IMPACTS CASE #3 Results: 30% higher hauler productivity when one way drive time is 20 minutes or less Less idle time for debris monitors Known traffic effects on productivity enables more accurate scheduling 59
