06 The System Is the Problem: Asset Management, ROI, and the Case for Total Strategy
We’ve been making the same mistakes for decades. Jack Dempsey isn’t afraid to say it, and in this 3-minute clip from our Café Zai conversation, he breaks down why the system is designed to fail, not just in federal facilities, but across the entire built environment.
I set it up by pointing out what many of us know:
Agencies, GAO, Congress, this isn’t partisan. No one has gotten it right. The will is there. The technology is here. But we’re still spinning the same wheels.
Jack picks it up with:
The real definition of renewal
Why Total Cost of Ownership #TCO is only part of the story
And how short-term budgeting, broken data, and a lack of strategy are baked into the system
“The federal government doesn’t even have a balance sheet for what it owns.
You can’t do ROI if you don’t even know what your assets are doing.”
Jack Dempsey leads and directs the development and implementation of technology enabled asset management strategies and solutions. Jack has over 30-years’ experience as an Asset Manager. For the first 20 years as a US Coast Guard Officer and Civil Engineer, then as a Director, Consultant, Advisor, Convener, Researcher, and Board Member focused on advanced asset management implementation. He is a Professional Engineer with a passion for solving problems and challenges owners of large and complex facilities portfolios face every day. His specialty is the development and implementation of asset management capabilities.Jack has over 30-years’ experience as an Asset Manager.
