Abstract

A tire condition management device, program, and tire condition management method are provided that can stop unnecessary warnings from a tire pressure monitoring system. [Solution] The tire condition management device (10) includes an acquisition unit (131) that acquires location information of a vehicle (20) and warning information from a tire pressure monitoring system that detects a decrease in the internal pressure of tires mounted on the vehicle and issues a warning, indicating whether or not the tire pressure monitoring system is issuing a warning; and a determination unit (132) that, when the tire pressure monitoring system is issuing a warning, determines whether the vehicle is stopped based on the location information, issues a warning to the vehicle manager if the vehicle is not stopped, and does not issue a warning to the vehicle manager if the vehicle is stopped.
