Course philosophy Mutual learning experience Learn from each other & outside
resourcesCourse operations
Participative “meeting”-type atmosphere
Course scope
Existing and the replacement of existing infrastructure
Mature versus growing economic and social environment
Emphasis on publicSystem rather than componentsCommon attributes across infrastructure
categories
Approach
Integrating - economic and engineering principals
System approach - treat assets as a system rather than as individual components
Institutional issues - seek to overcome institution issues that provide sub-optimal system solutions
Objectives
To review critically the status of the public’s infrastructure
To understand the issues involved in managing mature infrastructure and renewing existing infrastructure
To develop an awareness of the analytical tools and resources for public infrastructure management

What is Infrastructure?
The nation’s water supplies, transportation, wastewater, solid waste, and other infrastructure provide a range of essential services. They facilitate movement of people and goods, provided adequate safe water for drinking and other uses, provide energy where it is needed, remove wastes, and generally support the economy and quality of life. They are public assets that grow in value as each generation makes a contribution to the legacy.
What is Infrastructure?
Infrastructure is the aggregate of all facilities which allow a society to function George Rainer
Public infrastructure, therefore, is the aggregate of all public facilities which allow a society to function
It is a work of civilization David McCullough, writing of the Panama Canal
What is a City?
Human beings began as hunter-gatherers
Agriculture allowed people to stay in one place
As people gathered in communities, it made possible specialization of labor
But it also forced people to develop physical infrastructure
What Did People Need to Live in Cities?
ShelterDistribution system for food,
clothing, other goods“Common” infrastructure
Marketplaces Public gathering areas Government facilities
Transportation systemsPotable waterSewage disposalEventually, other utilities
Natural gas Electricity Telecommunications
Public Infrastructure is:
Roads and bridgesWater, storm water, and waste water
distribution systemsWater treatment facilitiesLocks, dams, and railroadsElectrical distribution systemsSchools
Differences between public and private infrastructure
Private infrastructure is created for the benefit of the owner
Public infrastructure is created for the benefit of the user In public infrastructure, there is a
disconnect between level of service and the organization responsible for maintenance of the level of service.
Role of Infrastructure
Economic productivity - correlation between GDP and infrastructure investment (identified by Aschauer)
Communication, education, health, safety, mobility and standard of living.
Role of infrastructure in society
Man-made Infrastructure
Natural Environment
Economic system
Social System
Grigg 1988
Current trends in management of public infrastructure
Transition from a period of construction to operations and management.
Demands on for greater efficiency, reliability, and capacity are increasing.
Increased financial and resource accountability Increasing need for knowledge of tradeoffs
between: Capital costs and O/M costs Competing public sector services Alternative technologies and modes System preservation and expansion or improvement

Inter-Organizational Relationships
How do these inter-relationship and mixed objectives impact the infrastructure, finance, delivery, and maintenance of service process? What are some of the institutional
issues?
What is infrastructure management?
Process of maintaining and operating existing infrastructure in a cost effective manner.
Infrastructure management / asset management / facility management
Proactive process for stewardship of assets Criteria for individual asset and system performance Policies for maintenance, rehabilitation, and restoration Measure and monitoring of systems performance Allocation of resources Feedback, adjustment, and improvement of systems
Framework for Infrastructure Management
The thrust:Preservation of the condition and value of asset (the
contribution made by our generation to asset legacy)
Key success criteria:Integrate organizational goals into capital, preservation, and
maintenance decision-making processes
Three levels of management:Program/network/systems-wideProject selectionProject design level
Key features:Ongoing, in-service monitoring and evaluationA system database
Asset level decisions
Economic life (planning measure) Minimizes the average cost of ownership
Physical life Can no longer perform designed function
Depreciation life Anticipated life for accounting purposes
Functional life Life ended by functional obsolescence
Renewal decision Based on conditions at the time or within the decision
making period

Asset level decisions
Address physical condition Preservation of investment
Address user needs Capacity, safety or operational improvements
Alternative modes (inter-modal, cross-model) Transit vs. highway
Competing public services Transportation vs. education
Life Cycle
Birth to death or cradle to graveIncludes planning, design, construction,
operation, replacement and disposal.Conception and birth (planning, design
and construction) receive a disproportionate share of attention from engineers, politicians and administrators.
Asset Management Systems
Must consider all individual assets life-cycle conditions together.
Must consider common resource limitations.
Must consider policy on asset and network conditions.
A Simple View of Asset Management
Defining goalsPlanning and programmingAcquiring, manipulating and using
dataImplementing programsMonitoring outcomes
A Simple View
This has planning, engineering, financial and public policy aspects
It depends on sound engineering practice, and sound planning practice
It also depends on sound management and sound political practice
Simple View
You need a goalYou need a plan to attain the goalYou need data and analytic systems to
formulate a planThe organization must be able to
implement the planYou need to be able to monitor the
performance of your system to know if the goal was met
