Level of service indexes

For level of service (LOS) projects, Infor Public Sector uses level of service indexes to calculate the current condition of the assets managed in the project, the deterioration of the assets' condition over the course of a year, and the amount of money required to maintain the assets at a certain condition level. For example, a public works water department must inspect all of its fire hydrants once per year. This agency must inspect each hydrant and rate the condition of the hydrant using a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the best. After recording inspection results for its hydrants, the agency can create an LOS project for the hydrants to calculate their average LOS rating and the amount of money required to repair the hydrants to meet the agency's LOS goal.
