Introduction to Parks and Grounds Management

Parks and Grounds Management can be used to inventory assets, understand asset condition, and communicate changing asset conditions that impact services.

Parks and grounds are essential assets that contribute to the quality of life in a community. They improve health outcomes, provide environmental benefits, and support social interaction, community engagement, and special events. Agencies managing assets in parks, government complexes, and campuses are increasingly burdened with overuse and often are the first agency to receive funding cuts during an economic downturn. As a result, they are continuously balancing asset maintenance needs with available funding. The first and most critical step parks and grounds agencies must take to prioritize asset needs is to create an asset inventory. An agency cannot plan parks and grounds improvements, maintain existing assets, and ensure guest safety unless they know what assets they have, where they are, and what condition they are in.

The Parks and Grounds Management solution delivers a set of capabilities that help parks and grounds agencies inventory assets, understand asset condition, and communicate changing asset conditions that impact services.
