Asset Maintenance Strategy Developed
7.1. Outline the maintenance resources, internal or external to the agency
All resources, including human resources, knowledge of the asset base, administrative, technical
o
and procurement skills, management and construction technology, vendor support and financial
resources available to the agency affect the maintenance delivery options that can be considered.
7.2. Outline the long term maintenance strategies for each asset type or risk category. (Include
operational, strategic and cultural influences affecting the way maintenance is organised and
delivered.)
Include strategies to address planned obsolescence and ICT upgrade paths, urgent, major,
o
programmed, geographically isolated and high risk maintenance. Outline any links between
individual strategies. Outline any inter agency strategies.
Highlight any constraints on maintenance planning and delivery stemming from service delivery,
o
or organisational pressures. Examples might include security difficulties in providing
maintenance access or retention of certain maintenance capabilities or staff to address emergency
breakdowns.
Include strategies to address knowledge management where empirical knowledge is integral to the
o
effective management of assets.
7.3. Outline the critical maintenance issues from assessing asset condition against performance
criteria, based on:
1. No change in levels of service (Maintenance of Service Effort), and
2. Enhanced levels of service (Enhancement of Service Effort).
The gap between the current assessed standards of the whole asset base and the standards
o
required should take into account the resources that will be available over the life of the asset
strategy. A gap larger than the financial resources available to address it indicates the need for
the agency to review its asset and other resource standards or the levels of service it plans to
deliver.
For projects targeting enhancement of service effort, an agency should consult its Treasury
o
analyst before undertaking extensive planning to avoid wasted cost/effort.
7.4. Provide by overall priority a costed program of works proposed for the forthcoming year
and longer term budget projections for all asset types, based on:
1. No change in levels of service (Maintenance of Service Effort), and
2. Enhanced levels of service (Enhancement of Service Effort).
Detail recurrent office accommodation proposals in appendix 2.
o
The costed program of works should cover the forthcoming year, the next three years and longer
o
term budget projections. Projections should extend to ten years for major maintenance projects
which are capitally funded.
Detail the impact on service delivery and current and future costs if particular programs of
o
maintenance do not proceed.
For projects targeting enhancement of service effort, an agency should consult its Treasury
o
analyst before undertaking extensive planning to avoid wasted cost/effort.
