Method by which an asset is acquired. Examples include purchase, lease, build.
A physical component of a facility which has value,enables services to be provided and has an economic life of greater than 12 months. Dynamic assets have some moving parts, while passive assets have none. IIMM
An asset is an object (physical or intangible) that has an identifiable value and a useful life greater than 12 months, that is or could be used by the entity responsible for it to provide a service. LGAM
Asset - An item with an independent physical and functional identity and age, within a facility (e.g. pump, motor, sedimentation tank, main). Asset - Service potential or future economic benefits controlled by entity as a result of past transactions or other past events. DERM
The defined service quality for a particular activity (i.e. roading) or service area (i.e. streetlighting) against which service performance may be measured. Service levels usually relate to quality, quantity, reliability, responsiveness, environmental acceptability and cost. IIMM
The period from the acquisition of the asset to the time when the asset, while physically able to provide a service, ceases to be the lowest cost alternative to satisfy a particular level of service. The economic life is at the maximum when equal to the physical life, however obsolescence will often ensure that the economic life is less than the physical life. IIMM
The Economic Life of an asset is the length of time for which maintaining and operating the asset remains the lowest cost alternative for providing a nominated level of service. LGAM
The period over which an asset is expected to be economically useable by one or more users or the number of production or similar units expected to be obtained from the asset by one or more users. AIFMG 2009
Increases in economic benefits during the accounting period in the form of inflows or enhancements of assets or decreases of liabilities that result in increases in equity. other than those relating to contributions from equity participants (contributed capital). The definition of income encompasses both revenue and gains. Revenue arises in the course of the ordinary activities of an entity and is referred to by a variety of different names including sales, fees, interest, dividends, royalties and rent. Gains represent other items that meet the definition of income and may, or may not, arise in the course of the ordinary activities of the entity. Gains represent increases in economic benefit and include, for example, those arising on the disposal of non-current assets. • Capital income includes gain on disposal of non-financial assets, grants and contributions received specifically for new or upgraded assets and physical resources received free of charge, e.g. from a developer. • Operating Income is income shown in the Statement of Comprehensive Income other than capital income.

An organisation such as a Local Council that is responsible for the management of infrastructure assets in a defined local area.
Planned maintenance activities fall into three categories: i) Periodic - necessary to ensure the reliability or to sustain the design life of an asset. ii) Predictive - condition monitoring activities used to predict failure. iii) Preventive - maintenance that can be initiated without routine or continuous checking (e.g. using information contained in maintenance manuals or manufacturers' recommendations) and is not condition-based.
IIMM
Planned maintenance is maintenance organised and carried out with forethought, controland the use of records to a predetermined plan.
LGAM
The maintenance organised and carried out with forethought, control and the use of records to a predetermined plan.
DERM
Repair work that is identified and managed through a maintenance management system (MMS). MMS activities include inspection, assessing the condition against failure breakdown criteria/experience, prioritising scheduling, actioning the work and reporting what was done 10 develop a maintenance history and improve maintenance and service delivery performance.
AIFMG 2009
A risk is the probability of a failure of an asset as a result of the occurrence of a hazard. There may be a resulting cost associated with the risk.
A system supplying a public need such as transport, communications, or utilities such as electricity and water.
An organisation responsible for providing a service.
The defined service quality for a particular activity (i.e. roading) or service area (i.e. streetlighting) against which service performance may be measured. Service levels usually relate to quality, quantity, reliability, responsiveness, environmental acceptability and cost.
