Canadian Infrastructure Report Card (2016) revealed that based on the planned reinvestment levels, the physical condition of core municipal infrastructure is expected to deteriorate. Federal and provincial strategies demand enhanced sustainability performance from infrastructure owned and operated by local governments. Proactive physical and performance management of existing municipal infrastructure is vital to ensure the public wellbeing and to optimize the use of public tax money. However, the published literature reveals that Canadian local governments lack sufficient funds as well as standardized methods for optimized infrastructure management. ******The primary objective of my research program in the next five years is to develop innovative and practical solutions, decision support mechanisms, and hybrid project delivery methods to ensure optimized lifecycle performance of municipal infrastructure portfolios. The proposed research primarily focuses on integrated planning and management of maintenance, repair, and rehabilitation (M/R/R) projects of key municipal civil infrastructure (i.e., buildings, drinking and wastewater systems, and roads) operated by small and medium-sized municipalities. This research program includes interconnected research deliverables to develop an integrated and performance-oriented municipal infrastructure management approach. The proposed level of service (LOS) assessment will facilitate the operational performance evaluation of municipal infrastructure, which will be used to develop the performance-oriented infrastructure management method. This knowledge would be transferred to develop an integrated multi-period maintenance planning approach for municipal infrastructure portfolios. Outcomes of this research would support M/R/R project management by life cycle thinking based project evaluation and predictive project management decision making. Furthermore, this research program proposes implementation guidelines, project delivery methods, and best management practices for performance-oriented infrastructure portfolio management. ******This research program will create a platform for multidisciplinary collaborations and has the potential to attract local, national, and international organizations for collaborative research projects. The proposed research program offers several unique solutions for municipal infrastructure management, including performance-oriented infrastructure portfolio management, lifecycle impact based project evaluation, predictive construction management, and innovative project delivery methods for the big data era of the construction industry. Overall, the proposed research would create and contribute to a novel paradigm in municipal infrastructure management. **

加拿大基础设施报告卡（2016年）显示，根据计划的再投资水平，核心市政基础设施的实际状况预计将恶化。联邦和省级战略要求地方政府拥有和运营的基础设施提高可持续性绩效。对现有市政基础设施进行积极的物理和性能管理，对于确保公众福祉和优化公共税收的使用至关重要。然而，已发表的文献表明，加拿大地方政府缺乏足够的资金以及优化基础设施管理的标准化方法。****** 我的研究计划在未来五年的主要目标是开发创新和实用的解决方案，决策支持机制和混合项目交付方法，以确保市政基础设施组合的生命周期性能优化。拟议的研究主要集中在重点市政民用基础设施（即，建筑物、饮用水和废水系统以及道路）。该研究计划包括相互关联的研究成果，以开发综合和以绩效为导向的市政基础设施管理方法。提出的服务水平评价方法将有助于市政基础设施的运营绩效评价，并将用于发展以绩效为导向的基础设施管理方法。将转让这一知识，以便为市政基础设施组合制定一个综合的多期维修规划办法。本研究的结果将支持M/R/R项目管理的生命周期思维为基础的项目评估和预测项目管理决策。此外，该研究计划提出了实施指南，项目交付方法和最佳管理实践，以绩效为导向的基础设施组合管理。* 该研究计划将为多学科合作创造一个平台，并有可能吸引地方，国家和国际组织进行合作研究项目。拟议的研究计划为市政基础设施管理提供了几种独特的解决方案，包括以绩效为导向的基础设施组合管理，基于生命周期影响的项目评估，预测性施工管理以及建筑行业大数据时代的创新项目交付方法。总的来说，拟议的研究将创造和促进一个新的模式，在市政基础设施管理。**
