High-value support during every phase of construction

AASHTOWare Project Asset Tracker Update

March 03, 2025

Let’s start by refreshing your memories on what exactly AASHTOWare Project Asset Tracker is all about. AASHTOWare Project Asset Tracker is a tool designed to connect web-based AASHTOWare Project data at any phase-from design to completed project-to an asset ID. AASHTOWare Project Asset Tracker maintains pay item data at the asset level, which the system rolls up to the total quantity items used by web-based AASHTOWare Project. Items in AASHTOWare Project Asset Tracker are connected to web-based AASHTOWare Project cost estimate items, project items, or contract project items, depending on the stage of the project. Connecting pay items to an asset ID enables agencies to connect their AASHTOWare Project data to their asset inventory and geospatial database to ensure accurate data in an efficient manner.

The project is currently eight months in and the team consisting of agency subject matter experts, PTF product owners, and Infotech development resources has made substantial progress. They utilize the hybrid agile development methodology and are currently on Sprint 13.

Updates to web-based AASHTOWare Project and AASHTOWare Project Asset Tracker integration:

  • Functionality to manage assets throughout the lifecycle from concept to project to contract.
  • Connection between AASHTOWare Project Asset Tracker and AASHTOWare Project to seamlessly import and sync data between the two products, including the capability to push rolled-up items to web-based AASHTOWare Project.
  • Integration with construction functionality of web-based AASHTOWare Project to allow users to easily access designs from contract projects and select asset items for daily work report item postings.
