For many years, facilities operations had adopted the notion of a periodic facilities condition assessment to help them plan for future capital needs. These assessments were typically done every 5 or 10 years. They would evaluate the assets and systems and attempt to forecast what would be needed between the time of the study and the evaluative horizon. Anything over that horizon was not included in the plan.  This articles seeks to find a way in which master planning can evolve from the periodic exercise that has become the standard and become more like life-cycle planning.
