  • Develop a comprehensive assessment of all roofing existing conditions
  • Implement a process to analyze and define optimal repair/replace alternatives
  • Define consistent and cost-effective roof systems and project delivery methods
  • Optimize the District's warranty protection
  • Develop roofing design guidelines
  • Ensure quality during the design and construction process
  • Increase the useful life of the District's assets
  • Develop and implement a post-construction roof management program
  • Facilitate the accessibility of all program information and data
