WORKSHOP SUMMARY

In the coming years utilities will need to implement new administrative systems and management tools to allow them to adapt to the increased regulatory requirements and environmental complexities they face. The Fiscal Sustainability Planning Workshop is a one-day event that focuses on the 5 keys to Asset Management. These new tools will allow utilities to operate on a “Business Model” for long term sustainability addressing stricter regulatory requirements, growing populations, increased service demands, limited water supplies, climate change, aging infrastructure, increased energy costs and limited funding.
Asset Management allows the utility to provide a sustained level of service at the lowest and most appropriate life cycle cost. Utility staff, managers, and board members will find this class useful to learn the tools needed for assessing the current status of their operations and for developing strategic plans for sustainable utility services.
An Asset Management program has 5 Core Components:

Assets
Service level
Criticality
Life cycle
Funding

The workshop will include an Asset Management IQ questionnaire and tabletop exercises to assist you in performing assessments of your utility for each of the 5 components of Asset Management. Ideal workshop participants include upper management, directors, senior field personnel, and board members/council members.
