The VA wants to know how long its boilers will last

The US Department of Veterans Affairs is paying a company to study the useful life of its boilers. This means the VA wants to know exactly when its heating systems will need to be replaced.

Government agencies often operate critical infrastructure until it fails, leading to unexpected costs and service disruptions. By understanding the actual lifespan of its equipment, the VA can plan maintenance and replacement schedules more efficiently. This shifts from reactive repairs to proactive asset management, which can save taxpayer money and ensure continuous service.
