What is Asset What is Asset management (AM)?management (AM)? A definition (OECD and Piarc) of AM
that is appropriate for the roads sector is:– “A systematic process of maintaining,
upgrading and operating assets, combining engineering principles with sound business practice and economic rationale, and providing tools to facilitate a more organised and flexible approach to making the decisions necessary to achieve the public’s expectations”

What is Asset What is Asset management? (cont.)management? (cont.) AM is a business-like approach to
managing infrastructure– Looking at projects as investment for
specific customers (road users)– Monitoring asset performance and value
in order to trade-off project alternatives and investment.
– Developing competive short and long-run investment strategies for current and future asset.

Why Asset Why Asset mangagement?mangagement? In most countries, the road network constitutes one of the
largest community assets mostly state owned. Those responsible for the infrastructure must maintain, operate,
improve, replace and preserve the asset. At the same time, the financial and human resources needed to achieve the performance objectives of the road network are often scarce, and must be managed carefully.
All of this must be accomplished under the close scrutiny of the public who pay for this element of the country’s transport system, are regular users of it, and who increasingly demand improved levels of quality in terms of safety, reliability and ride.
Road networks are also physical assets that are powerful generators of economic wealth and social equity. They need much financial support. As a result, governments are placing ever greater pressures on Road Administrations to improve the efficiency of, and accountability for, the management of the community’s asset.

Why AM (cont.)?Why AM (cont.)?
Examples of general oranizational needs– Complete invetory of all assets– Current data that reflects the condition of the assets – Performance measures that consistently, efficiently and
accurately describe infrastucture requirements, support funding request
– Monitor and preserve a substantial investment in transportation assets, ensuring that their value is being properly maintained and not being driven to reconstruction or replacement
– Support economic development and manage traffic growth, and to minimise adverse land use and environmental impacts
– Ensure that capital and operational funding provides the best outcomes for customers
– Improve the speed and efficiency of carrying out investment analyses
– Appropriate long term assessment of future capital and revenue funding needs

Why AM (cont.)?Why AM (cont.)?
Examples of key decision-makers needs – direct and timely access to accurate and consistent
data and information in order to make defensible investment decisions make choices on investment trade-offs promote the needs of the organisation compete for funding and staffing of these needs pursue alternative sources of funding and partnerships inform customers on performance, programmes and
projects carry out continuous review of programmes and core
activities market the organisation's effectiveness and efficiency

Why AM (cont.)?Why AM (cont.)?
Examples of what key decision-makers needs– an executive support tool that merges all asset and investment
data and information, enabling them to make strategic trade-offs and to respond to queries from politicians, customers, communities, special interest groups etc. How well is the organisation meeting its responsibilities,
objectives and performance expectations? Are road users getting value for money? How much has been invested in a particular area? What is the organisation planning to do in a particular
area,when? What is the current status of all your projects? Why is a project required, why now, and what are the benefits? What impact will a given project have on the overall network
condition? What are the road user impacts, environmental impacts? What are the costs, what are the benefits? How long will construction delays last?

Asset valuationAsset valuation
Asset valuation means the determination of the monetary value of an asset.
The road assets usually contain – roads (road substructures, running surfaces,
equipment and accessories, etc.)– bridges– tunnels– land areas (road areas, rest areas, parking areas
and loading areas)– drainage system– unfinished project and structure

Asset valuationAsset valuation
Monetary value of fixed assets can be determinend in many different ways:– Book value is usually based on the original acquisition cost, which
has been adjusted for depreciation, or by any other increase or decrease in value.
– Replacement price is the present market price of a similar asset to replace an old asset.
– Market value is the current market price of an asset, i.e. the sum of money that could be obtained for an asset if it was sold in the market at a certain time.
– Present value is considered to be the present value of payments made at a later date. Thus the future payments are discounted into the present.
– Nominal value is the purchase value of an asset on the purchase date.
– Taxable value is the monetary value of an asset determined for taxation purposes.
– Utility value represents the quantitative or qualitative benefit of an asset for the user. The utility value can vary depending on the user.

Value to Road AssetValue to Road Asset
Value of Road Asset = Book value adjusted by the depreciation or by increase or decrease in value– Depreciation depends on economical
lifetime 20-50 years for road substructures 10-20 years for running surface 50-100 years for bridges 5-20 years for equipment and accessoires

Benefits of AMBenefits of AMconclusion from the OECD conclusion from the OECD groupgroup Improved budget analysis and decision making which
provides a higher level of service to the community. Increased operational efficiencies arising from easier
interpretation of data and better analysis tools. Increased strategic planning within budget constraints. Increased productivity of the Road Administration due to
reduced information fragmentation and better access to higher quality and more consistent data.
Determination of funding levels required to maintain assets at specified levels of service.
Improved allocation of expenditure between individual assets to give the best value for the overall asset.
Improved prioritisation of work requirements and funding allocations to achieve the goals and objectives of the Road Administration.
