Abstract
This guide focuses on medium-sized and large operators. It discusses techniques that apply to situations where asset types and conditions vary widely and in-house engineering and financial skills exist. The fundamentals, however, apply to all utilities. Asset management gives smaller utilities the opportunity to introduce good asset recording systems; ensure regular maintenance; identify critical assets; manage the risk of their breakdown; and measure asset performance, especially nonrevenue water, as an indicator of good asset management.
