Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

vi | P a g e

1. Executive summary

1.1. Context

Tenterfield Shire Council’s Fleet comprises of a diverse combination of heavy road maintenance plant, trucks, trailers, light transport vehicles, minor plant and equipment. The Fleet is utilized to facilitate the maintenance and construction of the road and services networks, provide mobility to Councils workforce and support essential services in the town of Tenterfield, its villages, state forest, national parks and neighbouring rural district. The provision of the Fleet in an operative condition is essential for the ongoing serviceability of infrastructure that supports the main industries of the region of agriculture and tourism.

The main issue associated with the management of the Fleet asset is funding to address basic maintenance and renewal requirements. Of specific concern is the condition of numerous old units which are near or exceeding their service life, thus requiring additional maintenance and repair.

Due to limited available resources, Tenterfield Shire Council prioritises the extension of our fleet and addition of new assets as low priority, focusing instead on maintenance, renewal and replacement of existing assets to maintain a modest level of service.

1.2. The Fleet service

Prado Wagons 1

Navara 4WD Utilities 1

Heavy Trailers 5

Specialised Plant Items 7

Tractors 4WD 3

Minor Plant Items 14

These assets have a replacement value of $10,689,000.

1.3. What does it cost?

The projected cost to provide the services covered by this the Fleet Asset Management Plan including operations, maintenance and renewal of existing assets over the 10 year planning period is $22,734,650 or $2,273,465 per year. Council’s estimated available funding for this period is $23,006,500 or $2,300,650 thousand per year which is 100% of the cost to provide the service. The budget is balanced meaning services can be provided at existing levels.

The gap between available funding and requisite expenditure is due largely to several years of prior inadequate replacement funding leading to a considerable percentage of the Fleet exceeding the duration of its useful life.

1.4. What we will do

Council plans to provide existing services through Plant and Fleet assets. This will require sustainable management of:

Operation, maintenance, renewal and upgrade of Heavy Plant, Light Plant, Light Vehicles, Small Plant and miscellaneous equipment to meet service

levels within the limitations set by council in annual budgets.

Disposal of underutilised fleet items and the inclusion of alternate fleet items required within the next 10 year planning period with the asset management plan being adjusted as required to account for these items.

1.5. What we cannot do

Council does not have enough funding to provide all services at the desired service levels without disposal of some minor, non-key items or to provide new services. Services that cannot be provided under present funding levels are:

Replacement of non-key fleet assets at their optimal age.

Acquire additional plant or equipment unless there is a demonstrated efficiency gain.

1.6. Managing the risks

There are risks associated with providing the service and not being able to complete all identified activities and projects. We have identified major risks as:

Rising costs of fuel and increasing purchase prices for new assets.

Increasing community expectations for road and services networks.

Decrease in the value of the existing fleet due to age and damage.

We will endeavour to manage these risks within the available funding by:

Managing and maintaining the existing plant and equipment.

Monitoring the efficiency and suitability of the existing plant and equipment to ensure items are replaced at the optimal time.

Monitoring the demand, utilistion, and sutability of the existing plant to deliver the required service levels sustainably.

1.7. The next steps

The actions resulting from this asset management plan are:

Identify options for additional funding including state and federal infrastructure grants, and special rates variations.

Improve the quality of renewal and maintenance prioritisation through updates to condition rating systems.

Monitor the provision of Plant and Equipment alongside the community expectations for roads and services.

Monitor utilisation and adjust internal hire rates to maintain the sustainability of existing services.

1.8. Questions you may have

What is this plan about?

This asset management plan covers the Tenterfield Shire Council Plant and Equipment. These assets include heavy road maintenance plant, trucks, trailers, light transport vehicles, generators and minor plant equipment.

What is an Asset Management Plan?

Asset management planning is a comprehensive process to ensure delivery of services from Council’s fleet is provided in a financially sustainable manner.

An asset management plan details information about fleet assets including actions required to provide an agreed level of service in the most cost effective manner. The Plan defines the services to be provided, how the services are provided and what funds are required to provide the services.

Why may there be a funding shortfall?

Most of the Council’s transport network was constructed from government grants, or by other government organizations such as the NSW Department of Works which were often provided and accepted without consideration of ongoing operations, maintenance and replacement needs. Recent budgets have not considered the pending need to renew assets including fleet, and have instead relied on continuous repairs.

Many of these assets are approaching the later years of their life and require replacement. The useful life of the assets is decreasing and maintenance costs are increasing.

Councils’ present funding levels are sufficient to continue to provide existing services at current levels in the medium or long term, however there are significant risks that must be effectively managed.

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

viii | P a g e

What options do we have?

Resolving the funding shortfall involves several steps:

1. Improving asset knowledge so that data accurately records the asset inventory, how assets are performing and when assets are not able to provide the required service levels,

2. Improving our efficiency in operating, maintaining, replacing existing and new assets to optimise life cycle costs,

3. Identifying and managing risks associated with providing services from an aging fleet,

4. Making trade-offs between service levels and costs to ensure that the community receives the best return from infrastructure,

5. Identifying assets surplus to needs for disposal to make savings in future operations and maintenance costs

6. Consulting with the community to ensure that fleet services and costs meet community needs and are affordable,

7. Developing partnership with other bodies, where available to provide services;

8. Seeking additional funding from governments and other bodies to better reflect a ‘whole of government’ funding approach to infrastructure services.

What happens if we have a shortfall?

Council will have to reduce service levels in some areas, unless new sources of revenue are found. For Plant and Equipment, the service level reduction may include reduction in the quality of machinery and reduction in the plant provided in-house, thus requiring an increase in contracted plant.

What can we do?

Council can develop options and priorities for future Plant and Equipment services with costs of providing the services, consult with the community to plan future services to match the community services needs with ability to pay for services and maximise benefit to the community for costs to the community.

What can you do?

Council will be pleased to consider your thoughts on the issues raised in this asset management plan and suggestions on how Council may change or reduce its fleet services mix to ensure that the appropriate level of service can be provided to the community within available funding.

2.2. Goals and objectives of asset management

Council’s primary objective is to provide services to its community. Many of these services are provided by infrastructure assets. Council has acquired infrastructure assets from other government bodies (i.e. NSW Department of Works), by ‘purchase’, by contract, construction by council staff and by donation of assets constructed by developers and others to meet increased levels of service.

Council’s goal in managing infrastructure assets is to meet the community’s desired level of service in the most cost effective manner for present and future consumers. The key elements of infrastructure asset management are:

Taking a life cycle approach,

Developing cost-effective management strategies for the long term,

Providing a defined level of service and monitoring performance,

Understanding and meeting the demands of growth through demand management and infrastructure investment,

Managing risks associated with asset failures,

Sustainable use of physical resources,

Continuous improvement in asset management practices.

The goal of this asset management plan is to:

Document the services/service levels to be provided and the costs of providing the service,

Communicate the consequences for service levels and risk, where desired funding is not available, and

Provide information to assist decision makers in trading off service levels, costs and risks to provide services in a financially sustainable manner.

This asset management plan is prepared under the direction of Council’s vision, mission, goals and objectives.

Council’s mission is:

Quality Nature, Quality Heritage, Quality Lifestyle

Council’s vision is:

To establish a shire where the environment will be protected and enhanced to ensure sustainability and inter-generational equity,

To recognise and actively develop our cultural strengths and unique heritage,

To establish a prosperous shire through balanced, sustainable economic growth managed in a way to create quality lifestyles and satisfy the employment, environmental and social aims of the community,

To establish a community spirit which encourages a quality lifestyle, supports health and social well-being, promotes family life and lifestyle choices,

To establish a community spirit which promotes opportunities to participate in sport and recreation, promotes equal access to all services and facilities, and

To encourage all people to participate in the economic and social life of the community with a supportive attitude towards equal life chances and equal opportunity for access to the Shire’s resources.

Relevant goals and objectives and how these are addressed in this asset management plan are shown in Table 2-2.

Table 2-2 Council goals and how these are addressed in this plan

Goal/objective How Goal and Objectives are addressed in AMP

Sustainability and inter-generational equity

The long term costs of asset management and maintenance are determined and spread across their life span. This allows planning for acceptable levels of service and allocation of resources to ensure functioning assets with the cost not disproportionally allocated to future generations.

Establish a prosperous shire with The true cost of assets and their useful life is identified. Key assets are prioritised

Goal/objective How Goal and Objectives are addressed in AMP

quality lifestyle and economic development

and realistic levels of service established.

Equal access to recreation, services and facilities

Council’s fleet is an integral part of maintaining the road network which in turn is a key requirement for accessibility. Council’s fleet is also fundamental in the maintenance of the Council’s parklands and gardens. This plan identifies long term requirements for sustainability and opportunities for improvement to ensure recreational facilities (many, such as national parks are accessed along rural roads) and services are accessible and maintained.

2.3. Plan framework

Key elements of the plan are

Levels of service – specifies the services and levels of service to be provided by council.

Future demand – how this will impact on future service delivery and how this is to be met.

Life cycle management – how Council will manage its existing and future assets to provide the required services

Financial summary – what funds are required to provide the required services.

Asset management practices

Monitoring – how the plan will be monitored to ensure it is meeting Councils objectives.

Asset management improvement plan

This asset management plan is prepared in accordance with the International Infrastructure Management Manual. 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.

2.4. Community consultation

This asset management plan incorporates community consultation from Nov 2012 to Jan 2013 on infrastructure and service levels. This has assisted Council and the community in matching the level of service needed by the community, service risks and consequences with the community’s ability to pay for the service. Community expectations of the fleet asset are a consequence of their expectations for other services, predominantly the maintenance and renewal of roads.

Key results from the community consultations include:

Road maintenance is the highest priority infrastructure priority for respondents overall, with 49.2% listing it as the highest or second highest maintenance priority.

98% of all respondents support the trial of alternative maintenance techniques such as recovery of verge material, and different ripping and rolling strategies.

84% (85% for rural) believe the quality of maintenance is more important than the length between maintenance visits;

72% (72% for rural) do not support Council maintaining private roads (this is current practice);

85% (81% for rural) believe all roads of the same class and usage should be maintained to the same standard;

66% (63% for rural) support the current policy of maintaining roads only to the second last property access;

78% believe better roads will improve tourist traffic to outer regions of the shire, but only 37% believe this justifies prioritisation of roads which are tourist routes;

57% support removing an expensive-to-replace bridge from service if an alternative route less than 5km longer exists;

72% are in support of better communication regarding maintenance cycle timing;

3. Levels of service

3.1. Customer Research and Expectations

Council completed a “road show” presenting the challenges facing the Tenterfield Shire in maintaining and improving assets in Nov/Dec 2012. As part of this process, and through subsequent surveys mailed to every Tenterfield Shire Resident (also online), the service expectations and level of understanding regarding asset management were determined.

3.2. Legislative Requirements

Council has to meet many legislative requirements including Australian and State legislation and State regulations. The most significant of the relevant legislation is shown in Table 3-1.

Table 3-1 Legislative requirements

3.3. Levels of service

Community levels of service – Community levels of service relate to the service outcomes that the community wants in terms of safety, quality, quantity, reliability, responsiveness, cost effectiveness and legislative compliance.

Community levels of service measures used in the asset management plan are:

1. Quality - How good is the service? 2. Function - Does it meet users’ needs? 3. Safety - Is the service safe? 4. Capacity or Utilisation - Is the asset substantially over or under capacity?

Technical levels of service - Supporting the community service levels are operational or technical measures of performance. These technical measures relate to the allocation of resources to service activities that the council undertakes to best achieve the desired community outcomes.

Technical service measures are linked to annual budgets covering:

Operations – the regular activities to provide services such as, transportation, mowing, road maintenance and construction, and water and sewage service functions.

Maintenance – the activities necessary to retain an assets as near as practicable to its original condition (e.g. scheduled servicing, routine adjustments and repairs),

Renewal – the activities that return the service capability of an asset up to that which it had originally (e.g. consistent scheduled optimal replacement),

Upgrade – the activities to provide a higher level of service (e.g. acquiring additional plant or equipment where there is a demonstrated need and efficiency gain).

4. Future Demand

4.1. Demand forecast

Factors affecting demand include population change, changes in demographics, seasonal factors, vehicle ownership, consumer preferences and expectations, economic factors, agricultural practices and environmental awareness. There is expected to be little change in demand due to population growth. The Tenterfield Shire’s population has increased from 6,394 to 6,811 in the last 10 years (ABS) while the population of Tenterfield town has decreased from 3,191 to 2,997. Drake and Urbenville and other villages also exhibit decreasing or stable populations. This indicates a decentralisation of the population with the increased prevalence of lifestyle properties and small acreages. The non-urban/village population has increased from approx. 2,500 to 3,115 over 10 years, a growth of nearly 25%.

An aging demographic is also in evidence with an increase in persons aged over 54 from 30% to 39% and a decrease in persons aged 19 or under from 27% to 24%. The median age has increased from 41 to 47. Workforce participate has decrease from 53% to 50% since 2001, as would be expected from the aging population.

Demand factor trends and impacts on service delivery are summarised in Table 4-1.

Table 4-1 Demand factors, projections and impact on community

Demand factor Present position (2011)

Projection (2021)

Impact on Community/Services

Population 6811 7500 Focus on maintenance and renewal of existing services

Non-urban population

3115 3750 Increased demand on rural road infrastructure

55 or older 39% 42% Increased demand on health services

19 or younger 24% 21% Possible reduction in education service personnel

Median age 47 51 Increased emphasis on lifestyle and recreation

Workforce participation

50% 48% An aging local work force may make it more difficult to employ skilled personnel

4.2. Changes in technology

Technology changes forecast to affect the delivery of services covered by this plan are detailed in Table 4-2.

Table 4-2 Changes in technology and forecast effect on service delivery

Technology Change Effect on Service Delivery

Engine management technology required to meet ever more stringent vehicle emissions standards.

Increased capital cost of new assets and an associated increase in the operational and maintenance costs of these assets. The emissions technology will also require changes to work practices in some situations (to reduce idle periods and changes to the operational environment) Certain emissions devices (DPF) are extremely hot and present an ignition risk in long grass on roadsides etc.

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

8 | P a g e

Technology Change Effect on Service Delivery

Improvements in power train technology that reduce operational costs e.g. common rail diesel engines ,inertia recovery systems, design improvements etc.

Reduces operational costs and may perform with improved productivity in the working environment. May be able to rationalise assets in the future to realise cost savings

Increased use of GPS tracking and fault logging. Increased ability to track utilisation, fuel usage trends and maintenance requirements in real time.

4.3. Demand management planning

Demand for the continuation of existing and for new services will be managed through a combination of existing asset maintenance and renewal, the provision of modest asset upgrades to meet demand, and adjustments to expected service levels. Demand management practices can include non-asset solutions, insuring against risks and managing failures.

Non-asset solutions focus on providing the required service without the need for the council to own the assets. As current funding is not adequate to maintain existing levels of service, it is essential that the expected consistent demand is addressed through the engagement of hired plant when available to reduce the resultant decrease in service levels.

Opportunities identified to date for demand management are shown in Table 4-3. Further opportunities will be developed in future revisions of this asset management plan.

Table 4-3 Demand Management Plan Summary

Demand Driver Demand Management Plan

Efficiency Improve productivity of plant and fleet assets by reviewing specifications regularly with end users to ensure correct size matching and incorporation of the latest technology and operational systems.

Renewal program Investigate alternative renewal timeframes including the possibility of component rebuilds during ownership to extend the renewal period.

Service Delivery Ensure Fleet assets are available to deliver key services as required.

4.4. New assets for growth

Changes to the size and scope of the Tenterfield Shire Council Fleet is an ongoing issue that can be driven by changes in work practices, technology, staffing or increasing workloads due to a number of factors. Current strategies to address this are triggered when the item of fleet is due for renewal and consultation with the uses of the plant occurs.

At this time the fleet size is relatively stable with further assessment and analysis being required to shape future cost projections associated with growth.

Future revision of this plan may include new assets from growth. Acquiring these new assets will commit Tenterfield Shire Council to fund ongoing operations and maintenance costs for the period of the service provided from the assets is required. These future costs are identified and coincided in developing forecast for future operating and maintenance costs.

Council does not propose to provide any additional assets over the course of this Asset Management Plan.

5. Lifecycle management plan

The lifecycle management plan details how Council plans to manage and operate the assets at the agreed levels of service (defined in Section 3) while optimising life cycle costs.

5.1. Background data

5.1.1. Physical parameters

The assets covered by this asset management plan are shown below.

Specialised Plant 5 Cars 8 Utilities 26 Trucks 18 Light Trailers 13 Heavy Trailers 5 Earth Moving Equipment 21 Elevated Work Platform 1 Minor Plant and Equipment 15 Mowers and Slashes 11 Tractors 3 Crane 1 Total: 127

Tenterfield Shire Council has a diverse range of fleet due to the number of services provided, these services are all linked to fleet management but are only a piece of equipment to provide the service and at no time should they be driving any services levels.

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

18 | P a g e

Various ratios of asset consumption and expenditure have been prepared to help guide and gauge asset management performance and trends over time.

Rate of Annual Asset Consumption 12.1% (Depreciation/Depreciable Amount)

Rate of Annual Asset Renewal 12.1% (Capital renewal exp/Depreciable amount)

Council is currently renewing assets at 12.1% of the rate they are being consumed each year and is not increasing the size of the asset base.

To provide services in a financially sustainable manner, Council will need to ensure that it is renewing assets at the rate they are being consumed over the medium-long term and funding the life cycle costs for all new assets and services in its long term financial plan.

5.2. Risk management plan

An assessment of risks associated with service delivery from infrastructure assets has identified critical risks that will result in loss or reduction in service from infrastructure assets or a ‘financial shock’ to the organisation. The risk assessment process identifies credible risks, the likelihood of the risk event occurring, the consequences should the event occur, develops a risk rating, evaluates the risk and develops a risk treatment plan for non-acceptable risks.

Critical risks, being those assessed as ‘Very High’ - requiring immediate corrective action and ‘High’ – requiring prioritised corrective action identified in the Infrastructure Risk Management Plan are summarised in Table 5-3.

Table 5-3 Critical risks and treatment plans

Service or Asset at Risk

What can Happen Risk Rating (VH, H)

Risk Treatment Plan Associated Costs

Aging Plant and Equipment

-Increase in maintenance and operating costs.

- Premature detrition of condition impacting the projected residual value.

H -Regular monitoring of costs throughout asset life.

-Regular monitoring of condition throughout asset life.

-Downtime, ongoing maintenance staff demands and increased whole of life costs.

-Not calculable, but significant impact to renewal funding projections.

Existing Plant and Equipment Assets

-Items do not comply with regulations.

-Inadequate or unsuitable plant or equipment.

H -Regular inspections at scheduled services and vehicle roadworthy checks.

-Regular training and research to keep up to date with regulations.

-Consultation processes to ensure provision of the plant matches the needs of the user and is of the design and standard that is fit for the purpose of intended use.

-Downtime and ongoing maintenance staff demands.

-Non compliance fines.

-Poor productivity and excessive equipment wear, possible property damage or staff injuries.

Damage to plant assets or injury to operators and others.

H -Start up procedures and accurate reporting.

-Accident/incident and near miss reporting with regular operating procedure reviews.

-Item specific operator induction training and competency reviews.

-Damage to property.

-Workplace injuries and workers compensation claims.

-Insurance premium increases.

5.3. Routine maintenance plan

Routine maintenance is the regular on-going work that is necessary to keep assets operating, including instances where portions of the asset fail and need immediate repair to make the asset operational again.

5.3.1. Maintenance plan

Maintenance includes reactive, planned and specific maintenance work activities.

Reactive maintenance is unplanned repair work carried out in response to service requests and management/supervisory directions. This maintenance occurs due to component failures, often after significant wear or damage.

Planned maintenance is repair work that is identified and managed through a maintenance management system (MMS). MMS activities include inspection, assessing the condition against failure/breakdown experience, prioritising, scheduling, actioning the work and reporting what was done to develop a maintenance history and improve maintenance and service delivery performance.

Cyclic maintenance is replacement of higher value components/sub-components of assets that is undertaken on a regular cycle including preventative maintenance, wear part replacements and lubricant changes, etc. This work generally falls below the capital/maintenance threshold but may require a specific budget allocation.

Council adhere to manufacturer specific recommendations and industry standard timings for all planned and cyclic maintenance. Actual past maintenance expenditure is shown in Table 5-4. Current maintenance expenditure levels are considered to be adequate to meet required service levels.

Table 5-4 Maintenance expenditure trends

Year Maintenance Expenditure

2012/2013 $742,452.41

2011/2012 $644,522.12

2010/2011 $608,597.71

2004/2005 $644,522.12

2003/2004 $474,452.41

Maintenance expenditure levels are considered to be adequate to meet projected service levels, which may be less than or equal to current service levels. Where maintenance expenditure levels are such that will result in a lesser level

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

20 | P a g e

of service, the service consequences and service risks have been identified and service consequences highlighted in this AM Plan and service risks considered in the Infrastructure Risk Management Plan.

Assessment and prioritisation of reactive maintenance is undertaken by Council staff using experience and judgement.

5.3.2. Operations and Maintenance Strategies

Council will operate and maintain assets to provide the defined level of service to approved budgets in the most cost-efficient manner. The operation and maintenance activities include:

Scheduling operations activities to deliver the defined level of service in the most efficient manner,

Undertaking maintenance activities through a planned maintenance system to reduce maintenance costs and improve maintenance outcomes. Undertake cost-benefit analysis to determine the most cost-effective split between planned and unplanned maintenance activities (50 – 70% planned desirable as measured by cost),

Maintain a current infrastructure risk register for assets and present service risks associated with providing services from infrastructure assets and reporting Very High and High risks and residual risks after treatment to management and Council/Board,

Review current and required skills base and implement workforce training and development to meet required operations and maintenance needs,

Review asset utilisation to identify underutilised assets and appropriate remedies, and over utilised assets and customer demand management options,

Maintain a current hierarchy of critical assets and required operations and maintenance activities,

Develop and regularly review appropriate emergency response capability,

Review management of operations and maintenance activities to ensure Council is obtaining best value for resources used.

5.3.3. Asset hierarchy

An asset hierarchy provides a framework for structuring data in an information system to assist in collection of data, reporting information and making decisions. The hierarchy includes the asset class and component used for asset planning and financial reporting and service level hierarchy used for service planning and delivery. Council’s service hierarchy is shown is Table 5.5. Table 5-5 Asset Service Hierarchy

Service Hierarchy Description Service Level Objective

Major Plant Motor Graders, Backhoes, Bulldozers, Excavators, Compactors, Trucks, Trucks, Plant Trailers, Cranes.

Provides support for significant service provision by Council e.g. roads.

Minor Plant Mowers, Compressors, Wood Chippers, Elevated Work Platforms.

Provides support for other service provision. E.g. mowing, workshop equipment.

Light Vehicles Sedans, Wagons and Utilities Staff and small goods transport, site access.

5.3.4. Critical Assets

Critical assets are those assets which have a high consequence of failure but not necessarily a high likelihood of failure. By identifying critical assets and critical failure modes, Council can target and refines investigative activities, maintenance plans and capital expenditure plans at the appropriate time.

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

21 | P a g e

Operations and maintenances activities may be targeted to mitigate critical assets failure and maintain service levels. These activities may include increased inspection frequency, higher maintenance intervention levels, etc. Critical assets failure modes and required operations and maintenance activities are detailed in Table 5-6

Table 5-6 Critical Assets and Service Level Objectives

Critical Assets Critical Failure Mode Operations & Maintenance Activities

5.5. Renewal/replacement plan

Renewal expenditure is the replacement of an existing item which does not increase the asset’s design capacity but restores, rehabilitates, replaces or renews an existing asset to its original service potential. Work over and above restoring an asset to original service potential is upgrade/expansion expenditure.

5.5.1. Renewal plan

Assets requiring renewal are identified using the Asset Register data to project the renewal costs using acquisition year and useful life to determine the renewal year. The useful lives of assets used to develop projected asset renewal expenditures are shown in Table 5.7. Asset useful lives were last reviewed in May 2012.

5.5.2. Renewal and Replacement Strategies

Council will plan capital renewal and replacement projects to meet level of service objectives and minimise infrastructure service risks by:

Planning and scheduling renewal projects to deliver the defined level of service in the most efficient manner,

Undertaking project scoping for all capital renewal and replacement projects to identify: o the service delivery ‘deficiency’, present risk and optimum time for renewal/replacement, o the project objectives to rectify the deficiency, o the range of options, estimated capital and life cycle costs for each options that could address the service

deficiency, o and evaluate the options against evaluation criteria adopted by Council, and o select the best option to be included in capital renewal programs,

Using ‘low cost’ renewal methods (cost of renewal is less than replacement) wherever possible,

Maintain a current infrastructure risk register for assets and service risks associated with providing services from infrastructure assets and reporting Very High and High risks and residual risks after treatment to management and Council,

Review current and required skills base and implement workforce training and development to meet required construction and renewal needs,

Maintain a current hierarchy of critical assets and capital renewal treatments and timings required ,

Review management of capital renewal and replacement activities to ensure Council is obtaining best value for resources used.

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

23 | P a g e

5.5.3. Renewal ranking criteria

Asset renewal and replacement is typically undertaken to either:

Ensure the reliability of the fleet to deliver the services it facilitates (eg replacing a garbage compactor that has reduced reliability through age), or

To ensure the fleet is of sufficient quality to meet the service requirements (eg capacity to provide the service at the desired level).

It is possible to get some indication of capital renewal and replacement priorities by identifying assets or asset groups that:

Have a high consequence of failure,

Have a high utilisation and subsequent impact on users would be greatest,

The total value represents the greatest net value to Council,

Have the highest average age relative to their expected lives,

Are identified in the AM Plan as key cost factors,

Have high operational or maintenance costs, and

Where replacement with modern equivalent assets would yield operational savings. The ranking criteria used to determine priority of identified renewal and replacement proposals is detailed in Table 5-8.

5.5.2. Summary of projected renewals

Projected future renewal expenditures are forecast to increase over time as the asset stock ages. The forecast costs and available budgets are summarised in Figure 5-10. The projected capital renewal program is shown in Appendix C. Note that all costs are shown in 2013 dollar values.

Figure 5-10 Forecast renewal program

Deferred renewal, i.e. those assets identified for renewal and not scheduled for renewal in capital works programs are included in the risk assessment process in the risk management plan.

5.6. Creation/acquisition/upgrade plan

New works are those works that create a new asset that did not previously exist, or works which upgrade or improve an existing asset beyond its existing capacity. They may result from growth, social or environmental needs. These assets from growth are considered in Section 4.4.

5.6.1. Selection criteria

New assets and upgrade/expansion of existing assets are identified from various sources such as community consultation, strategic plans or partnerships with other organisations. Candidate proposals are inspected to verify need and to develop a preliminary estimate. Verified proposals are ranked by priority and available funds and scheduled in future works programmes. The priority ranking criteria is detailed in Table 5-9.

Review management of capital project management activities to ensure Council is obtaining best value for resources used.

Standards and specifications for new assets and for upgrade/expansion of existing assets are the same as those for renewal shown in Section 5.6.1.

5.6.3. Summary of future upgrade/new assets expenditure

To address the identified service gap in Council’s current fleet, Council proposes the addition of a mini excavator, to date this shortfall in service delivery has been addressed with contact services.

Projected upgrade/new asset expenditures are summarised in Fig 5.10. The projected upgrade/new capital works program is shown in Appendix D. All amounts are shown in real values.

Figure 5-11 Projected Capital Upgrade/New Asset Expenditure

Expenditure on new assets and services in the Council’s capital works program will be accommodated in the long term financial plan. This is further discussed in Section 6.2.

5.7. Disposal plan

Disposal includes any activity associated with disposal of a decommissioned asset including sale, demolition or relocation. Assets identified for possible decommissioning and disposal are shown in Table 5.11, together with estimated annual savings from not having to fund operations and maintenance of the assets. These assets will be further reinvestigated to determine the required levels of service and see what options are available for alternate service delivery, if any. Any revenue gained from asset disposals is accommodated in Council’s long term financial plan.

Where cashflow projections from asset disposals are not available, these will be developed in future revisions of this asset management plan.

5.8. Service Consequences and Risks

Council has prioritised decisions made in adopting this AM Plan to obtain the optimum benefits from its available resources. Decisions were made based on the development of 3 scenarios of AM Plans.

Scenario 1 - What we would like to do based on asset register data

Scenario 2 – What we should do with existing budgets and identifying level of service and risk consequences (ie what are the operations and maintenance and capital projects we are unable to do, what is the service and risk consequences associated with this position). This may require several versions of the AM Plan.

Scenario 3 – What we can do and be financially sustainable with AM Plans matching long-term financial plans.

The development of scenario 1 and scenario 2 AM Plans provides the tools for discussion with the Council/Board and community on trade-offs between what we would like to do (scenario 1) and what we should be doing with existing budgets (scenario 2) by balancing changes in services and service levels with affordability and acceptance of the service and risk consequences of the trade-off position (scenario 3).

5.8.1. What we cannot do

There are some operations and maintenance activities and capital projects that are unable to be undertaken within the next 10 years. These include:

Council does not have the funding in the short term to renew some over deprecated assets, Council have adopted a long term approach and project that the fleet age will be in line with industry standards within the ten year planning period.

5.8.2. Service consequences

Operations and maintenance activities and capital projects that cannot be undertaken will maintain or create service consequences for users. These include:

The efficiency of services is impeded through the over depreciation of fleet items in some areas; this has increased the maintenance and operating expenditure, and effected productivity.

6. Financial summary

This section contains the financial requirements resulting from all the information presented in the previous sections of this asset management plan. The financial projections will be improved as further information becomes available on desired levels of service and current and projected future asset performance.

6.1. Financial statements and projections

The financial projections are shown in Figure 6-1 (for maintenance expenditure - renewal and upgrade/expansion/new assets - net disposal expenditure including estimated budget funding). Figure 6-1 Projected funding requirements vs. forecast budgets (combined renewals and new assets)

Note that all costs are shown in 2013 dollar values.

6.1.1. Financial sustainability in service delivery

There are four key indicators for service delivery sustainability that have been considered in the analysis of the services provided by this asset category, these being the asset renewal funding ratio, long term life cycle costs/expenditures and medium term projected/budgeted expenditures over 5 and 10 years of the planning period.

6.1.1.1. Asset Renewal Funding Ratio

Asset Renewal Funding Ratio 100%

The Asset Renewal Funding Ratio is the most important indicator and reveals that over the next 10 years, Council is forecasting that it will have 100% of the funds required for the optimal renewal and replacement of its assets.

Long term - life cycle cost

Life cycle costs (or whole of life costs) are the average costs that are required to sustain the service levels over the longest asset life. Life cycle costs include operations and maintenance expenditure and asset consumption (depreciation expense). The life cycle cost for the services covered in this asset management plan is $2.36 million per year (operations and maintenance expenditure plus depreciation expense in year 1).

Life cycle costs can be compared to life cycle expenditure to give an indicator of sustainability in service provision. Life cycle expenditure includes operations, maintenance and capital renewal expenditure in year 1. Life cycle expenditure will vary depending on the timing of asset renewals. The life cycle expenditure at the start of the plan is $2.35 million (operations and maintenance expenditure plus budgeted capital renewal expenditure in year 1).

The life cycle costs and life cycle expenditure comparison highlights any difference between present outlays and the average cost of providing the service over the long term. If the life cycle expenditure is less than that life cycle cost, it is most likely that outlays will need to be increased or cuts in services made in the future.

Knowing the extent and timing of any required increase in outlays and the service consequences if funding is not available will assist organisations in providing services to their communities in a financially sustainable manner. This is the purpose of the asset management plans and long term financial plan.

Medium term – 10 year financial planning period

This asset management plan identifies the projected operations, maintenance and capital renewal expenditures required to provide an agreed level of service to the community over a 10 year period. This provides input into 10 year financial and funding plans aimed at providing the required services in a sustainable manner.

These projected expenditures may be compared to budgeted expenditures in the 10 year period to identify any funding shortfall. In a core asset management plan, a gap is generally due to increasing asset renewals for ageing assets.

The projected operations, maintenance and capital renewal expenditure required over the 10 year planning period is $2.27 million per year.

Estimated (budget) operations, maintenance and capital renewal funding is $2.3 million per year giving a balanced result and a 10 year sustainability indicator of 1. This indicates that Council has the projected expenditures needed to provide the services documented in the asset management plan.

Medium term – 5 year financial planning period

The projected operations, maintenance and capital renewal expenditure required over the first 5 years of the planning period is $2.3 million per year.

Estimated (budget) operations, maintenance and capital renewal funding is $2.3 million per year giving a balanced result and a 10 year sustainability indicator of 1. This is 100% of projected expenditures giving a 5 year sustainability indicator of 1.

Financial sustainability indicators

Providing services from infrastructure in a sustainable manner requires the matching and managing of service levels, risks, projected expenditures and funding to achieve a financial sustainability indicator of 1.0 for the first years of the asset management plan and ideally over the 10 year life of the AM Plan.

Table 6-1 shows the projected and budgeted renewals.

2022 $998,000 $1,000,000 $2,000 $271,850

Note: A negative shortfall indicates a funding gap, a positive shortfall indicates a surplus for that year.

Providing services in a sustainable manner will require matching of projected asset renewals to meet agreed service levels with planned capital works programs and available revenue. A gap between projected asset renewals, planned asset renewals and funding indicates that further work is required to manage required service levels and funding to eliminate any funding gap.

We will manage the ‘gap’ by developing this asset management plan to provide guidance on future service levels and resources required to provide these services, and review future services, service levels and costs with the community.

6.2. Funding strategy

Projected expenditure identified in Section 6.1 cannot be funded from existing operating and capital budgets. Available funding will determine the extent to which the capital shortfall is addressed, and resultant required reductions in service levels.

6.3. Valuation forecasts

There is not expected to be any significant changes in the fleet asset base with all projected capital upgrades replacing existing assets of only equal value. As a result, depreciation expenses are expected to remain relatively stable.

6.4. Key assumptions made in financial forecasts

This section details the key assumptions made in presenting the information contained in this asset management plan and in preparing forecasts of required operating and capital expenditure and asset values, depreciation expense and carrying amount estimates. It is presented to enable readers to gain an understanding of the levels of confidence in the data behind the financial forecasts.

Key assumptions made in this asset management plan are:

Residual values of fleet assets are achievable;

Condition ratings which are up to 2 years old are accurate;

The adopted standard life of assets predicts the true useful life.

6.5. Forecast Reliability and Confidence

The expenditure and valuations projections in this AM Plan are based on best available data. Currency and accuracy of data is critical to effective asset and financial management. Over all data sources, the data confidence is assessed as high confidence level for data used in the preparation of this AM Plan. Section 5.3 outlines the associated risks that may impact the ability to implement this AM plan in full, factors such as inflation fuel costs and unpredictable residual asset values are the major risks associated with this AM plan.

7. Asset management practices

7.1. Accounting/financial systems

7.1.1. Accounting and financial systems

Council employs the Authority enterprise Business System provided by Civica. This is currently planned for replacement by the Horizon system in 2013/2014.

7.1.2. Accountabilities for financial systems

The Director of Corporate Services is responsible for the control of Council’s accounting systems.

7.1.3. Accounting standards and regulations

Australia accounting standards (AASB) local Government, code of accounting practice and financial reporting, Council’s accounting policy, the local government Act (LGA) and regulations.

In accordance with asset capitalisation policy expenditure which has benefit expected to last more than twelve month should be capitalized. Capital expender includes renewal, expansion and upgrade.

7.1.4. Capital/maintenance threshold

The aim of the capitalisation policy is to set a capitalisation threshold above which assets are required to be recorded by Council in its financial statements. The process for this is the capitalisation process and is achieved by the recording the capital cost of the acquisition of assets into Council’s financial system and then into the asset management system. Fleet assets are those with original purchase price above a capitalisation threshold of $5,000 and an expected life of 12 months. Procurement of items less than the threshold is treated as an expense. Procurement of items to rebuild or repair fleet assets are considered an expense.

7.1.5. Required changes to accounting financial systems arising from this AM Plan

A review of Council’s capital/maintenance thresholds.

Clarification of renewal expenditure within the maintenance budget by creating a special “renewal” job number.

7.2. Asset management systems

7.2.1. Asset management system

Council employs the Conquest asset management module of the Authority enterprise Business System provided by Civica.

7.2.2. Asset registers

Council employs the Conquest asset management module of the Authority enterprise Business System provided by Civica. Additional asset management registers are maintained in the Engineering Department by the Fleet Manager and are included in Appendix A .

7.2.3. Linkage from asset management to financial system

The Conquest asset management and accounting systems are integrated internally within the Authority system. Updating of data in Conquest from registers and independent valuations is manual.

7.2.4. Accountabilities for asset management system and data

The GIS officer is responsible for updating the Conquest system up to date. The Asset Manager is responsible for ensuring data in Conquest is as accurate as possible and concords with the Engineering Asset Registers.

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

32 | P a g e

7.2.5. Required changes to asset management system arising from this AM Plan

Improved integration of the Engineering Asset Registers and the asset management components managed by Finance is required. The current implementation of a replacement system called Horizon is expected to dramatically improve this integration.

7.3. Information flow requirements and processes

The key information flows into this asset management plan are:

Council strategic and operational plans,

Service requests from the community,

Network assets information,

The unit rates for categories of work/materials,

Current levels of service, expenditures, service deficiencies and service risks,

Projections of various factors affecting future demand for services and new assets acquired by Council,

Future capital works programs,

Financial asset values.

The key information flows from this asset management plan are:

The projected Works Program and trends,

The resulting budget and long term financial plan expenditure projections,

Financial sustainability indicators.

These will impact the Long Term Financial Plan, Strategic Longer-Term Plan, annual budget and departmental business plans and budgets.

Appendix F Glossary

Annual service cost (ASC)

1) Reporting actual cost

The annual (accrual) cost of providing a service including operations, maintenance, depreciation, finance/opportunity and disposal costs less revenue.

2) For investment analysis and budgeting

An estimate of the cost that would be tendered, per annum, if tenders were called for the supply of a service to a performance specification for a fixed term. The Annual Service Cost includes operations, maintenance, depreciation, finance/ opportunity and disposal costs, less revenue.

Asset

A resource controlled by an entity as a result of past events and from which future economic benefits are expected to flow to the entity. Infrastructure assets are a sub-class of property, plant and equipment which are non-current assets with a life greater than 12 months and enable services to be provided.

Asset class

A group of assets having a similar nature or function in the operations of an entity, and which, for purposes of disclosure, is shown as a single item without supplementary disclosure.

Asset condition assessment

The process of continuous or periodic inspection, assessment, measurement and interpretation of the resultant data to indicate the condition of a specific asset so as to determine the need for some preventative or remedial action.

Asset management (AM)

The combination of management, financial, economic, engineering and other practices applied to physical assets with the objective of providing the required level of service in the most cost effective manner.

Average annual asset consumption (AAAC)*

The amount of an organisation’s asset base consumed during a reporting period (generally a year). This may be calculated by dividing the depreciable amount by the useful life (or total future economic benefits/service potential) and totalled for each and every asset OR by dividing the carrying amount (depreciated replacement cost) by the remaining useful life (or remaining future economic benefits/service potential) and totalled for each and every asset in an asset category or class.

Borrowings

A borrowing or loan is a contractual obligation of the borrowing entity to deliver cash or another financial asset to the lending entity over a specified period of time or at a specified point in time, to cover both the initial capital provided and the cost of the interest incurred for providing this capital. A borrowing or loan provides the means for the borrowing entity to finance outlays (typically physical assets) when it has insufficient funds of its own to do so, and for the lending entity to make a financial return, normally in the form of interest revenue, on the funding provided.

Capital expenditure

Relatively large (material) expenditure, which has benefits, expected to last for more than 12 months. Capital expenditure includes renewal, expansion and upgrade. Where capital projects involve a combination of renewal, expansion and/or upgrade expenditures, the total project cost needs to be allocated accordingly.

Capital expenditure - expansion

Expenditure that extends the capacity of an existing asset to provide benefits, at the same standard as is currently enjoyed by existing beneficiaries, to a new group of users. It is discretionary expenditure, which increases future operations and maintenance costs, because it increases the organisation’s asset base, but may be associated with additional revenue from the new user group, eg. extending a drainage or road network, the provision of an oval or park in a new suburb for new residents.

Capital expenditure - new

Expenditure which creates a new asset providing a new service/output that did not exist beforehand. As it increases service potential it may impact revenue and will increase future operations and maintenance expenditure.

Capital expenditure - renewal

Expenditure on an existing asset or on replacing an existing asset, which returns the service capability of the asset up to that which it had originally. It is periodically required expenditure, relatively large (material) in value compared with the value of the components or sub-components of the asset being renewed. As it reinstates existing service potential, it generally has no impact on revenue, but may reduce future operations and maintenance expenditure if completed at the optimum time, eg. resurfacing or resheeting a material part of a road network, replacing a material section of a drainage network with pipes of the same capacity, resurfacing an oval.

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

49 | P a g e

Capital expenditure - upgrade

Expenditure, which enhances an existing asset to provide a higher level of service or expenditure that will increase the life of the asset beyond that which it had originally. Upgrade expenditure is discretionary and often does not result in additional revenue unless direct user charges apply. It will increase operations and maintenance expenditure in the future because of the increase in the organisation’s asset base, eg. widening the sealed area of an existing road, replacing drainage pipes with pipes of a greater capacity, enlarging a grandstand at a sporting facility.

Capital funding

Funding to pay for capital expenditure.

Capital grants

Monies received generally tied to the specific projects for which they are granted, which are often upgrade and/or expansion or new investment proposals.

Capital investment expenditure

See capital expenditure definition

Capitalisation threshold

The value of expenditure on non-current assets above which the expenditure is recognised as capital expenditure and below which the expenditure is charged as an expense in the year of acquisition.

Carrying amount

The amount at which an asset is recognised after deducting any accumulated depreciation / amortisation and accumulated impairment losses thereon.

Class of assets

See asset class definition

Component

Specific parts of an asset having independent physical or functional identity and having specific attributes such as different life expectancy, maintenance regimes, risk or criticality.

Cost of an asset

The amount of cash or cash equivalents paid or the fair value of the consideration given to acquire an asset at the time of its acquisition or construction, including any costs necessary to place the asset into service. This includes one-off design and project management costs.

Current replacement cost (CRC)

The cost the entity would incur to acquire the asset on the reporting date. The cost is measured by reference to the lowest cost at which the gross future economic benefits could be obtained in the normal course of business or the minimum it would cost, to replace the existing asset with a technologically modern equivalent new asset (not a second hand one) with the same economic benefits (gross service potential) allowing for any differences in the quantity and quality of output and in operating costs.

Depreciable amount

The cost of an asset, or other amount substituted for its cost, less its residual value.

Depreciated replacement cost (DRC)

The current replacement cost (CRC) of an asset less, where applicable, accumulated depreciation calculated on the basis of such cost to reflect the already consumed or expired future economic benefits of the asset.

Depreciation / amortisation

The systematic allocation of the depreciable amount (service potential) of an asset over its useful life.

Economic life

See useful life definition.

Expenditure

The spending of money on goods and services. Expenditure includes recurrent and capital.

Fair value

The amount for which an asset could be exchanged, or a liability settled, between knowledgeable, willing parties, in an arms length transaction.

Funding gap

A funding gap exists whenever an entity has insufficient capacity to fund asset renewal and other expenditure necessary to be able to appropriately maintain the range and level of services its existing asset stock was originally designed and intended to deliver. The service capability of the existing asset stock should be determined assuming no additional operating revenue, productivity improvements, or net financial liabilities above levels currently planned or projected. A current funding gap means service levels have already or are currently falling. A projected funding gap if not addressed will result in a future diminution of existing service levels.

Heritage asset

An asset with historic, artistic, scientific, technological, geographical or environmental qualities that is held

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

50 | P a g e

and maintained principally for its contribution to knowledge and culture and this purpose is central to the objectives of the entity holding it.

Impairment Loss

The amount by which the carrying amount of an asset exceeds its recoverable amount.

Infrastructure assets

Physical assets that contribute to meeting the needs of organisations or the need for access to major economic and social facilities and services, eg. roads, drainage, footpaths and cycleways. These are typically large, interconnected networks or portfolios of composite assets. The components of these assets may be separately maintained, renewed or replaced individually so that the required level and standard of service from the network of assets is continuously sustained. Generally the components and hence the assets have long lives. They are fixed in place and are often have no separate market value.

Investment property

Property held to earn rentals or for capital appreciation or both, rather than for:

(a) use in the production or supply of goods or services or for administrative purposes; or

(b) sale in the ordinary course of business.

Key performance indicator

A qualitative or quantitative measure of a service or activity used to compare actual performance against a standard or other target. Performance indicators commonly relate to statutory limits, safety, responsiveness, cost, comfort, asset performance, reliability, efficiency, environmental protection and customer satisfaction.

Level of service

The defined service quality for a particular service/activity against which service performance may be measured. Service levels usually relate to quality, quantity, reliability, responsiveness, environmental impact, acceptability and cost.

Life Cycle Cost

Total LCC The total cost of an asset throughout its life including planning, design, construction, acquisition, operation, maintenance, rehabilitation and disposal costs.

Average LCC The life cycle cost (LCC) is average cost to provide the service over the longest asset life cycle. It comprises annual operations, maintenance and asset consumption expense, represented by depreciation

expense. The Life Cycle Cost does not indicate the funds required to provide the service in a particular year.

Life Cycle Expenditure

The Life Cycle Expenditure (LCE) is the actual or planned annual operations, maintenance and capital renewal expenditure incurred in providing the service in a particular year. Life Cycle Expenditure may be compared to average Life Cycle Cost to give an initial indicator of life cycle sustainability.

Loans / borrowings

See borrowings.

Maintenance

All actions necessary for retaining an asset as near as practicable to its original condition, including regular ongoing day-to-day work necessary to keep assets operating, e.g. road patching but excluding rehabilitation or renewal. It is operating expenditure required to ensure that the asset reaches its expected useful life.

Planned maintenance

Repair work that is identified and managed through a maintenance management system (MMS). MMS activities include inspection, assessing the condition against failure/breakdown criteria/experience, prioritising scheduling, actioning the work and reporting what was done to develop a maintenance history and improve maintenance and service delivery performance.

• Reactive maintenance

Unplanned repair work that is carried out in response to service requests and management/supervisory directions.

• Significant maintenance

Maintenance work to repair components or replace sub-components that needs to be identified as a specific maintenance item in the maintenance budget.

• Unplanned maintenance

Corrective work required in the short-term to restore an asset to working condition so it can continue to deliver the required service or to maintain its level of security and integrity.

Maintenance and renewal gap

Difference between estimated budgets and projected required expenditures for maintenance and renewal

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

51 | P a g e

of assets to achieve/maintain specified service levels, totalled over a defined time (e.g. 5, 10 and 15 years).

Maintenance and renewal sustainability index

Ratio of estimated budget to projected expenditure for maintenance and renewal of assets over a defined time (e.g. 5, 10 and 15 years).

Maintenance expenditure

Recurrent expenditure, which is periodically or regularly required as part of the anticipated schedule of works required to ensure that the asset achieves its useful life and provides the required level of service. It is expenditure, which was anticipated in determining the asset’s useful life.

Materiality

The notion of materiality guides the margin of error acceptable, the degree of precision required and the extent of the disclosure required when preparing general purpose financial reports. Information is material if its omission, misstatement or non-disclosure has the potential, individually or collectively, to influence the economic decisions of users taken on the basis of the financial report or affect the discharge of accountability by the management or governing body of the entity.

Modern equivalent asset

Assets that replicate what is in existence with the most cost-effective asset performing the same level of service. It is the most cost efficient, currently available asset which will provide the same stream of services as the existing asset is capable of producing. It allows for technology changes and, improvements and efficiencies in production and installation techniques

Net present value (NPV)

The value to the organisation of the cash flows associated with an asset, liability, activity or event calculated using a discount rate to reflect the time value of money. It is the net amount of discounted total cash inflows after deducting the value of the discounted total cash outflows arising from e.g. the continued use and subsequent disposal of the asset after deducting the value of the discounted total cash outflows.

Non-revenue generating investments

Investments for the provision of goods and services to sustain or improve services to the community that are not expected to generate any savings or revenue to the Council, eg. parks and playgrounds, footpaths, roads and bridges, libraries, etc.

Operations expenditure

Recurrent expenditure, which is continuously required to provide a service. In common use the term typically includes, e.g. power, fuel, staff, plant equipment, on-costs and overheads but excludes maintenance and depreciation. Maintenance and depreciation is on the other hand included in operating expenses.

Operating expense

The gross outflow of economic benefits, being cash and non cash items, during the period arising in the course of ordinary activities of an entity when those outflows result in decreases in equity, other than decreases relating to distributions to equity participants.

Pavement management system

A systematic process for measuring and predicting the condition of road pavements and wearing surfaces over time and recommending corrective actions.

PMS Score

A measure of condition of a road segment determined from a Pavement Management System.

Rate of annual asset consumption

A measure of average annual consumption of assets (AAAC) expressed as a percentage of the depreciable amount (AAAC/DA). Depreciation may be used for AAAC.

Rate of annual asset renewal

A measure of the rate at which assets are being renewed per annum expressed as a percentage of depreciable amount (capital renewal expenditure/DA).

Rate of annual asset upgrade

A measure of the rate at which assets are being upgraded and expanded per annum expressed as a percentage of depreciable amount (capital upgrade/expansion expenditure/DA).

Recoverable amount

The higher of an asset's fair value, less costs to sell and its value in use.

Recurrent expenditure

Relatively small (immaterial) expenditure or that which has benefits expected to last less than 12 months. Recurrent expenditure includes operations and maintenance expenditure.

Recurrent funding

Funding to pay for recurrent expenditure.

Rehabilitation

See capital renewal expenditure definition above.

Tenterfield Shire Council – Fleet Asset Management Plan

52 | P a g e

Remaining useful life

The time remaining until an asset ceases to provide the required service level or economic usefulness. Age plus remaining useful life is useful life.

Renewal

See capital renewal expenditure definition above.

Renewal sustainability

The proportion of the annual depreciation expense that is covered by renewal of assets = Renewal Expense / Annual Depreciation Cost.

Residual value

The estimated amount that an entity would currently obtain from disposal of the asset, after deducting the estimated costs of disposal, if the asset were already of the age and in the condition expected at the end of its useful life.

Revenue generating investments

Investments for the provision of goods and services to sustain or improve services to the community that are expected to generate some savings or revenue to offset operating costs, e.g. public halls and theatres, childcare centres, sporting and recreation facilities, tourist information centres, etc.

Risk management

The application of a formal process to the range of possible values relating to key factors associated with a risk in order to determine the resultant ranges of outcomes and their probability of occurrence.

Section or segment

A self-contained part or piece of an infrastructure asset.

Service potential

The total future service capacity of an asset. It is normally determined by reference to the operating capacity and economic life of an asset. A measure of service potential is used in the not-for-profit sector/public sector to value assets, particularly those not producing a cash flow.

Service potential remaining

A measure of the future economic benefits remaining in assets. It may be expressed in dollar values (Fair Value) or as a percentage of total anticipated future economic benefits. It is also a measure of the percentage of the asset’s potential to provide services that is still available for use in providing services (Depreciated Replacement Cost/Depreciable Amount).

Strategic Longer-Term Plan

A plan covering the term of office of councillors (4 years minimum) reflecting the needs of the community for the foreseeable future. It brings together the detailed requirements in the council’s longer-term plans such as the asset management plan and the long-term financial plan. The plan is prepared in consultation with the community and details where the council is at that point in time, where it wants to go, how it is going to get there, mechanisms for monitoring the achievement of the outcomes and how the plan will be resourced.

Specific Maintenance

Replacement of higher value components/sub-components of assets that is undertaken on a regular cycle including repainting, building roof replacement, cycle, replacement of air conditioning equipment, etc. This work generally falls below the capital/ maintenance threshold and needs to be identified in a specific maintenance budget allocation.

Sub-component

Smaller individual parts that make up a component part.

Useful life

Either:

(a) the period over which an asset is expected to be available for use by an entity, or

(b) the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by the entity.

It is estimated or expected time between placing the asset into service and removing it from service, or the estimated period of time over which the future economic benefits embodied in a depreciable asset, are expected to be consumed by the council.

Value in Use

The present value of future cash flows expected to be derived from an asset or cash generating unit. It is deemed to be depreciated replacement cost (DRC) for those assets whose future economic benefits are not primarily dependent on the asset's ability to generate net cash inflows, where the entity would, if deprived of the asset, replace its remaining future economic benefits.
