PRESS RELEASE. TULSA, OK, October 10, 2005 – The Architect of the Capitol (AOC), the organization responsible for preserving, maintaining, and enhancing our nation’s most recognizable treasures, recently selected TMA Systems to assist in the modernization of its Facilities Management Information System. AOC is responsible to the United States Congress for the maintenance, operation, development, and preservation of the United States Capitol Complex, which includes the Capitol, the congressional office buildings, the Library of Congress buildings, the Supreme Court building, the U.S. Botanic Garden, the Capitol Power Plant, and other facilities.
TMA’s advanced Facilities Asset Management System will be used by the AOC to compare conditions among facilities, evaluate and plan funding requirements, set goals and track progress.
