As a water or wastewater system manager or operator, you are managing assets every day. You have to make decisions on what maintenance to perform on pumps, wells, tanks, treatment facilities, or any other assets. You have to decide what to do when an asset fails – repair it, replace it, or rehabilitate it. You have to make decisions regarding what spare parts to have on hand. The question is are you making well informed, data-driven decisions that are the most effective and efficient for your utility? Implementing an Asset Management Program will help you run your systems in a better, more informed way.
