Agenda Bad Problem – Not having a backup plan Good Solution – Asset management

What is Asset Management? “A process for maintaining a desired level of customer service at the best appropriate cost.”

How Will it Help? Asset management has many benefits  “Make investment decisions – large and small – based on understanding of life cycle costs and benefits.”  “Set Service Levels and make investments needed to meet them – now and into the future.”  “Reduce asset risk through capital investments, or changed maintenance practices and response protocols.”

In Other Words… Back up budget talks with solid facts Boost utility efficiency Save staff time Understand that a utility is running a customer service business Keep customers happy Booster station with above ground piping Credit: Rural Community Assistance Corporation

Asking the Right Questions What is the current state of the assets? What is the desired “sustainable” level of service ? What assets are critical to sustained performance? What are the best minimum life- cycle-costs and O&M strategies? What is the long-term financing strategy?

Communities Using Asset Management Elkhart County, Indiana  Unaccounted for water exceeded 40%.  Meters were the problem – adding the proper meter in the proper location showed that they didn’t have water loss at all.  “By incorporating an asset management program the system was able to locate the problem and correct the problem. By incorporating [maintenance] costs into the annual budget, the utility recoups the most value out of its assets and has the financial resources to rehabilitate and replace assets as needed.”
