1. An operation management system configured to manage operations of a plurality of registered mobilities in a limited specific area that includes unpaved roads but does not include ordinary roads, by sending a command as to a target route and a traveling speed to each of the registered mobilities, which is capable of obtaining positional information thereof,
wherein the operation management system includes a computer configured to:
generate a road surface map data such that a position in map data and road surface information are associated with each other, based on the positional information and the road surface information obtained from at least one of the registered mobilities on which a road surface condition detecting device configured to detect a road surface condition is installed;
compute a positon where a puddle is formed, based on i) one of water sprinkling information that is information on water sprinkling over a road surface by a sprinkler vehicle or weather information of the specific area and ii) the road surface map data;
designate a designation mobility from among the plurality of registered mobilities and modify the target route of the designation mobility based on the position of the puddle; and
send a command as to the modified target route to the designation mobility.
