What is ADAC? ADAC stands for “Asset Design & As Constructed” It is a set of tools design to make the transfer of asset design and as constructed data easier between asset constructors and asset managers ADAC does this by providing: A comprehensive data specificationA comprehensive data specification An open standards (XML) data transfer mechanismAn open standards (XML) data transfer mechanism A choice of implementation optionsA choice of implementation options A range of third party software & support services (if required)A range of third party software & support services (if required)

Problems ADAC Solves 1.Multiple AM data standards / formats − Designs / as cons created in multiple formats − Difficult to exchange data between systems or organisations 2.Re-work caused by incomplete / inconsistent asset data capture − Not all data captured − Data collected in different formats − Spatial data & asset component data are not not consistent ADAC solves 2 major problems facing Asset Managers today: Result: a lack of confidence in your asset data that impacts your ability to do long-term asset, service & financial planning

What is ADAC? ADAC Benefits 1.It has the greatest coverage of asset classes & types 2.It has the greatest level of detail (both spatial & non-spatial) 3.It provides you with more choice: − Hi-tech, low-tech and “no tech” implementation options − Supported by a range of software products & support services 4.It has strong industry alignment: − Endorsed by IPWEA / Overseen by IPWEAQ − The supported direction of NAMS.AU for as con data 5.It is stable & based on a strong foundation: − It is supported of a consortium of members not an individual − Developed by asset management (AM) people for AM people ADAC is the smart choice for asset design & as con data:
