Videre Consulting Limited

For a few golden years during the early 2000’s, New Zealand, along with Canada, was the star pupil in the Asset Management class. As an industry we were leading the charge with the art of asset management and providing significant thought leadership in this space. This wasn’t just across the big players – roads and water services, but across all asset classes that our local governments were charged with managing. However, over the years, we have lost that star pupil ranking – with many small to medium size local governments falling behind particularly in the space of our building, parks, recreation and property assets. While these councils have continued to manage their three waters and roading assets with the same vigour of the early 2000s, these ‘above ground and easily visible’ asset classes seem to be pushed to the side in terms of priority. So what happened? And what can we do to remedy this, with all the ‘noise’ being about potholes and leaky pipes. https://wix.to/vKLwHjC #newblogpost

Very interesing reports produced by Taumata Arowai, with many points that Local Councils will need to consider in the development of their new Water Service Delivery Plans. One of the Key takeaways for us here at Videre Consulting, is that one of the key findings highlights that there is still room to improve on the information held about assets, and the data held regarding performance of assets and networks. As specialists in the management of asset information, Videre sees this critical in the delivery of Water Services, and essential to providing the foundational knowledge for all asset management practices.
