Chair, SAME Facilities Asset Management COI
Welcome to the SAME Facilities Asset Management COI! With the onset of more constrained funding, hybrid workspaces and extreme weather effects layered on top of aging facilities and infrastructure the need for AM knowledge and collaboration is greater than ever.
The FAM COI offers a unique opportunity to bring together DoD and Industry AM thought leaders and AM seekers to explore knowledge, resources, and technologies to enable confident analysis and decision making while managing risk.
I invite you to partake in our variety of forums from webinars to FAM Session Track and the FAM Forum at JETC. Our Geospatial Working group offers collaborations across industries and agencies on cutting edge technologies to enable site picture generation, digital surveying and 3D modeling.
For those interested in more interaction, we invite you to join our steering group to direct the COI activities or share your AM knowledge through a speaking engagement. Join us in the national Asset Management journey.

Environmental Sequence Stratigraphy in Practice
Environmental Sequence Stratigraphy (ESS) utilizes nearly 75 years of academic and industry science to develop more effective ways to characterize the distribution of geologic materials in the subsurface. ESS technology helps to better understand contaminant migration and constrain flux-based conceptual site models. With roots in sedimentology, stratigraphy, and basin analysis, the oil and gas industry has used ESS to better understand and predict reservoir conditions, enabling more effective reservoir development. However, using similar approaches in these sites is proving trickier because direct technology transfer is difficult in characterizing contaminated aquifers. -

PFAS Analytical Methods Update – Practical Solutions to Remedial Challenges
To date, available laboratory analytical approaches include what are known as “target” and “non-target” analyses. While targeted analyses are limited to a fixed set of parameters, non-target analyses provide an insight into the total amount of potential PFAS present. Each of these analytical approaches offer a distinct advantage for environmental practitioners. -
