c. Peak Vehicle Requirement includes "standby" trains that are scheduled, ready for service, and have a designated crew. d. Factors that may influence spare ratio are: equipment make-up (locomotivehauled trains; married pair units or single cars; equipment design, reliability and age); environmental conditions (weather, above-ground or underground operation, loading and track layout); operational policies (standby trains, load factors, headways); maintenance policies (conditions for removing cars from service, maintenance during nights and weekends, and labor agreement conditions; and maintenance facilities and staff capabilities. e. A template for the calculation can be found in the Circular 9030.1C, Appendix F 8. The grantee's information system reliably provides needed operating and financial data such as current estimates of maintenance facilities and vehicle operating costs, reliability and life expectancy, for decision-making and performance review. 9. Grantee in its selection and specification of vehicle equipment and systems has matched the appropriate technology with the planned transit applications for the best performance at the lowest cost. 10. Grantee estimates of costs, service levels, quality, or reliability are mechanically correct and complete, consistent with the grantee-defined methodologies and free of any material inaccuracies or omissions 11. Grantee forecasts and schedule are mechanically correct and complete, and are consistent with the plan scope and project scope adopted in the Record of Decision. 12. The PMOC will report its findings in a written statement which summarizes the overall findings, and characterizes, for the FTA, the acceptability of the Fleet Management Plan. The statement will include the PMOC opinion as to the completeness of the Plan. 7.0 REPORT, PRESENTATION, RECONCILIATION Document your work in a written report. Present the findings, conclusions and recommendations to FTA headquarters and regional staff and the Project Sponsor either in a teleconference or in person. In an extended working session, reconcile findings and conclusions with the Project Sponsor so that disagreements if any are reconciled to the extent possible.
