Arkansas Training | Asset Management for Wastewater Systems: Optimizing Asset Life for Sustained Operations

* 10:00am – 12:00pm (CDT)

Description:

With limited revenues, aging infrastructure, and regulatory obligations to meet, a comprehensive approach to managing your system is vital. Your system is comprised of many capital assets, each of which plays a role in the overall success of your system and the quality of service provided. Currently, you may have issues related to unknown asset locations, or challenges identifying which assets to replace and when to replace them. Figuring out where to start can be daunting, but asset management provides a framework to help your system approach these types of problems.

In this training, you will learn about how asset management can benefit your system. UNC EFC staff will provide you with the tools you need to get started and will walk you through the process.

Learning Objectives: 

• Identify the 5 core components of asset management
• Develop an inventory of utility components
• Identify critical assets for sustained operations
• Make decisions about how to operate, maintain, repair, and replace those assets
• Set goals for level of service at a sustainable cost
