2.5 Core and advanced asset management This asset management plan is prepared as a ‘core’ asset

This TAMP has been prepared under the direction of the City’s Strategic Community Plan and the Corporate Business Plan. As a result, this TAMP is aligned to deliver the City’s Vision and Goals in terms of providing cost- effective, transparent, high-quality and affordable service levels in accordance with community expectations.

management plan in accordance with the International Infrastructure Management Manual (IIMM). It is prepared to meet minimum legislative and organisational requirements for sustainable service delivery and long- term financial planning and reporting. Core asset management is a ‘top down’ approach, where analysis is applied at the ‘system’ or ‘network’ level. It starts with the big picture and then proceeds to break down the network into smaller segments. This asset management plan is moving from core asset management to more advanced asset management using a ‘bottom up’ approach. This new approach will be used for gathering asset information for individual assets to support the optimisation of activities and programs to meet agreed service levels.
