Asset Management:

The specific purpose of Asset Management is to:

·       Demonstrate responsible stewardship,

·       Define and articulate how the subject asset is and will be managed to achieve the organisation’s objectives,

·        Provide a basis for customer consultation to determine the appropriate levels of service,

·       Identify and manage any risk associated with asset failure or less than adequate maintenance,

·       Achieve cost effective funding for the asset by optimising whole of life costs, and

·       Support long term financial planning

 The outcome of the Asset Management plan will be the identification of the funding and service delivery requirements taking into account the following factors:

·       Adopted Levels of Service,

·       Future demand for infrastructure,

·       Current asset performance,

·       Asset Failure,

·       Risk,

·       Required works, and

·       Funding constraints.

 The preparation of Asset Management plans is a cyclical process whereby a process of continual improvement is used to ensure that the plan is a working document and to ensure the long term effective management of Councils assets.

 A basic asset management plan generally follows the six step process highlighted in Fig 1.
