The Desired LOS Plan window contains three panes: LOS Plans, LOS Plan Details, and Activities.

LOS Plans

This pane lists all LOS plans. When you first create an LOS plan, the Defect Survey Year, Inventory Year, and Fiscal Year for Accomplishments columns will be blank for a particular master work plan type. You then select the appropriate years from the drop-down lists in each column to indicate when the defect survey was performed, when the inventory of assets was performed, and the year to be used for summing costs, respectively.

Note: Once the years are selected for these columns and saved, they cannot be changed. (This pane becomes essentially read-only.) If you want to develop a new plan for a different year, you must create a new plan.

After setting the years for the fields in this pane, next add defects addressed by the work plan in the LOS Plan Details pane.

LOS Plan Details

For the plan selected in the LOS Plans pane, this pane lists all defects addressed by the plan and the costs for remedying each defect.

Columns

This pane provides the following columns:

  • Current Cost: This column is the total amount of money expended during the year selected in the Fiscal Year for Accomplishments column in the Master Work Plan Types pane on activities intended to remedy the defect.
  • Current LOS: This column shows the current LOS grade.
  • Defect: This column shows the name of the defect.
  • Functional Class: This column shows the type of road (interstate, primary, etc.) associated with the defect.
  • Scenario Cost: This column shows the predicted amount of money required to attain the LOS grade selected in the Defect Grade column. The difference between the Scenario Cost and the Current Cost is the amount of additional money required to change the Current LOS grade to the desired LOS grade.
  • Station: This column shows the name of the administrative unit that performs activities to remedy the defect.
  • Target LOS: This column shows the desired LOS grade for this defect.
Note: When you change the grade for a defect, the system automatically re-calculates the Scenario Cost.

Right-click Shortcut Menu Commands

When you right-click the pane, the system displays a shortcut menu with the common commands along with the following special commands:

  • Copy from Defect Survey: This command allows you to copy one or more defect records from the defect survey identified by the Defect Survey Year column to the current plan. When you select this command the system displays a dialog box so you can select the defect records to be copied.

    Note: Only defect records that do not exist in the current plan will be copied.

  • Copy from Other Type: This command allows you to copy one or more defect records from an LOS plan to the current LOS plan. When you select this command the system displays a dialog box so you can select the LOS plan and defect records to be copied. See Copy MWP Defect Records for more information.

    Note: Only defect records that do not exist in the current plan will be copied.

  • Copy MMS Scenario Results: This command allows you to copy the results from the results of a maintenance analysis to the current plan.

    Note: Only defect records that do not exist in the current plan will be copied.
  • Fill Scenario Costs: This command calculates the scenario costs for the defects.
  • Show Total Budget: This command adds all values in the Scenario Cost column and displays the total in a popup window.

Activities

For the defect selected in the Plan Details pane, this pane shows the activities that contribute to remedying the defect. This pane is read-only and the activities are associated with the defect in the Setup Defect Activities window.

The Old Budget Related Cost column shows the amount of money expended on the activity during the selected fiscal year by the indicated administrative unit to achieve the current LOS grade. The sum of all values in this column equals the value in the Current Cost column in the Plan Details pane for the selected defect.

The New Budget Related Cost column shows the estimated amount of money that would need to be expended on the activity by the indicated administrative unit to achieve the desired LOS grade. (The amount of the activity needed to achieve this LOS grade is given in the Amount column.) The sum of all values in this column equals the value in the Scenario Cost column in the Plan Details pane for the selected defect.
