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
A framework for segmenting an asset base into appropriate classifications. The asset hierarchy can be based on asset function; asset type or a combination of the two. IIMM
An asset hierarchy is a framework for segmenting an asset base into appropriate classifications. The asset hierarchy can be based on asset function; asset type or a combination of the two. LGAM
An Asset Condition Inspection is an inspection carried out on an asset to determine its condition.
Types of inspections:
There are two main types of asset condition inspections.
- Defect / hazard inspections designed to determine the need for maintenance and/or temporary works.
- More detailed overall asset condition inspections designed to assess the overall condition of an asset and determine its remaining useful life.
Defect / hazard inspections are typically carried out on a more frequent basis than overall asset condition inspections, but in both cases the inspection frequency may depend on the classification of the asset within a hierarchy. LGAM
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 net value obtained upon sale. IIMM
An organisation such as a Local Council that is responsible for the management of infrastructure assets in a defined local area.
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.
The total future service capacity of an asset. It is normally determined by reference to the operating capacity and economic life of an asset.
IIMM
Service potential is the total future service capacity of an asset. It is normally determined by reference to the operating capacity and economic life of an asset.
LGAM
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.
IIMM
The current value of a non-current asset of a local government is the loss that it would incur if it were deprived of the asset’s utility (or service potential). (Synonymous with ‘deprival value’.)
