The Benchmarking and Asset Management Nexus Conference was an invitation-only event with a limited number of seats available for national institutions like ministries and regulators; national water and municipal associations, local government and utilities in the Danube region; representatives from relevant regional associations like IAWD, NALAS and WAREG; representatives from the EU, UNECE, GIZ, SDC, the World Bank and other bilateral donors and IFIs; Young Water Professionals; academia; private companies and NGOs.
Managing the Total Cost of Ownership
Hydro-Comp participated in the event presenting the achievements on Asset Management implementation with the EDAMS systems in Utilities in Albania and Regional Authorities in Kosovo.
Strategic Asset management in the water sector is the efficient approach to managing infrastructure capital assets. It aims at minimizing the total cost of owning and operating them, while delivering a service level that meets customers’ expectations.
Sustainability of urban water services requires medium- and long-term infrastructure planning, including not only the renewal of strategies and tactics, but also the financial, organizational and information management aspects that are needed to ensure that stakeholders’ needs and expectations are met over time.
