ICMA's Program Excellence Award for Innovations in Local Government Management recognizes one or more local governments that have successfully applied the concepts of reinvention, reengineering, TQM, customization, or other cutting-edge organizational tool or successfully enhanced an existing program or service. In 2004, ICMA presented the award in the 10,000-to-49,999 population category to the city of Monterey, California, and City Manager Fred E. Meurer for their integrated technology solution for public works. This article discusses how the city implemented a new infrastructure and asset management system to support its public works operations and that of a neighboring military base, resulting in cost-savings for the city as well as for the U.S. Department of Defense.
