Experiences of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in the water supply sector show the consequences of inadequate asset management, such as lack of customer coverage and high nonrevenue water ratios. One response is lending to allow for new infrastructure. Some immediate benefits may be evident, but sustainability is at risk unless better asset management is part of the solution. This guide provides ADB's perspective on asset management, as well as an overview of the concept, processes, and systems of asset management, followed by a presentation of case studies about what utilities have done to manage their assets, including the results achieved.

Water and Wastewater companies operating all around the world have faced rising asset management and replacement costs, often to levels that are financially unsustainable. Management of investment needs, while meeting regulatory and other goals, has required: A better understanding of what customers demand from the services they pay for, and the extent to which they are willing to pay for improvements or be compensated for a reduction in performance Development of models to predict asset failure and to identify and concentrate investment on critical assets Improved management systems Improved accounting for costs and benefits and their incorporation within an appropriate cost-benefit framework Incorporation of risk management techniques Utilisation of advanced maintenance techniques including new rehabilitation failure detection technologies Enhancements in pipeline materials, technologies and laying techniques. These papers developed from LESAM 2007 for inclusion in Strategic Asset Management of Water Supply and Wastewater Infrastructures are focused on the techniques, technologies and management approaches aiming at optimising the investment in infrastructure while achieving demanded customer service standards, and they provide an opportunity to gain access to the latest discussion and developments at the leading-edge in this field. This book will be essential reading for utility operators and managers, regulators and consultants.

The United States can boast the finest water and wastewater systems in the world, but it cannot sustain this extensive infrastructure unless steps are taken to counter its natural wear-down due to age. The resulting task is to initiate and manage a modern, methodical, and sustainable asset renewal process, called asset management. This report fully explores the processes involved in asset management: Define expectations and assess the condition, Estimate the remaining useful life, Manage the wear-out process, and continually Improve the plan. Written for: water utility managers, governing boards , community stakeholders, and others interested in the subject.

Managers of drinking water utilities face the difficult task of identifying appropriate levels of renewal and replacement spending, and achieving buy-in for the required funding levels from boards and councils. This project was commissioned to provide the framework to identify and test several levels of asset management planning, using samples of assets from a dozen participating utilities. As water utilities strive to implement appropriate strategies for managing their considerable treatment plant and distribution assets, they are faced with challenges that include (1) fully valuing water in a marketplace whose customers and policymakers have become accustomed to below market rates for service, and (2) developing more strategic asset management programs in the face of increased funding competition. Most articles, papers, and publications on asset management are based on theoretical examples or single- case studies. This project was designed by AwwaRF as a management study to help address the lack of comparative case studies. The study provides the first casebook that utility managers, finance directors, engineering managers, and interested persons can use to see the kind of information that they would get from varying levels of asset management. The study also identified a number of priority actions for future industry research to further advance the state of knowledge and practice, based on limitations encountered in efficiently populating data sets for this study.
