Local Water Done Well is Asset Management Done Well — webinar series
Asset Dynamics and ProjectMax delivered a series of three webinars for the water sector in 2024. Entitled "Local Water Done Well is Asset Management Done Well", the series was designed to assist water services operators to establish a least regrets pathway — responding to near-term reform requirements while building a foundation for long-term performance.
All three webinars are available to watch below, along with slides for download.
Webinar 1: Levels of service — aligning decision making with what matters to stakeholders
31 July 2024
When done well, levels of service translate the expectations of customers and stakeholders into clear criteria that drive the development of plans for assets and services. In many cases, however, disconnects exist between levels of service and the organisation's capability to deliver, and the decision-making processes that drive infrastructure investment.
Rob Blakemore of ProjectMax and Jules Congalton of Asset Dynamics covered the following topics:
The role of levels of service in the asset management framework
Developing existing levels of service to provide clear criteria for investment
Evaluating performance against levels of service
Using performance against levels of service to drive improvement
Webinar 2: Asset management framework — working together to deliver asset management
28 August 2024
An asset management framework creates strategic alignment and ensures teams throughout the organisation can collaborate effectively to achieve asset management outcomes. The establishment and continual improvement of a fit-for-purpose asset management framework is a critical determinant of infrastructure performance and underpins the ISO 55001 standard widely adopted by water services organisations internationally.
This webinar covered:
What is an asset management framework and why does it matter?
Understanding the ISO 55001 asset management system
Practical guidance on establishing your asset management framework
Defining and documenting asset management processes
Webinar 3: Data and information — the lifeblood of asset management
2 October 2024
Data and information are essential inputs to all asset management decision-making and the safe and efficient delivery of work. Yet just 28% of asset managers have confidence in their organisation's asset information. Addressing data quality gaps requires a systematic and structured approach to identify and resolve root causes, supported by stakeholders from across the asset management process.
This webinar covered:
The role of the Asset Information Strategy in data improvement
How to establish asset information governance
The power of creating connections between data and business needs
Addressing root causes of data issues
The water sector reform agenda continues to evolve, and the asset management challenges it presents — building capability, improving data quality, and establishing fit-for-purpose frameworks — remain as relevant as ever. Asset Dynamics continues to support water services operators across New Zealand on these challenges. If you would like to discuss how we can help your organisation, get in touch.
