    In this work, interactive software, developed on Microsoft Office Excel 2013 is proposed, this software allows data processing in an automated way, obtaining, the “Pavement Condition Index” (PCI) value (ASTM D6433-11 or ASTM D6433-07), also, obtaining hierarchical results for the pavement condition, by using a complementary decision tree tool, suggests types of treatment and provides adequate approximations in the condition of future pavement networks due to Markov transition matrices. The software works for both: rigid and flexible pavements. In the second part of this work, the software is tested and validated by performing a complete functional condition inventory on the University of Cuenca’s parking lots and roads, on its “Central” and “Paraíso” campuses, (including rigid and flexible pavements). After this data acquisition, and with this basis, the software presents prioritized intervention needs for the mentioned network, and the costs for each pavement section. Consequently, it is important to note that, this innovative software provides a useful and efficient set of tools to study any type of pavement configurations, and manage any network properly. Finally, the University of Cuenca’s technical personnel, (or any pavement management agency that may use this tool), will have a trustful aid for managing their network with a sustainable approach.
