PURPOSE
1. To consider the adoption of the “Asset Management Strategy 2013-2017”
(Attachment 1). The Asset Management Strategy (“AMS”) sets the essential

asset management processes.
BACKGROUND
2. Section 5.56 of the Local Government Act 1995 and the Local Government
(Administration) Regulations 1996 now require local governments to
implement the Integrated Planning Framework (“IPF”). These requirements
are shown schematically in (Attachment 2).
3. Key elements of the IPF include a Strategic Community Plan and a Corporate
Business Plan.
4. Asset Management information is one of the informing strategies that link to
the Strategic Community and Corporate Business Plans. The AMS is a critical
part of the IPF and has been developed in accordance with the Shire’s Asset
Management Policy.
5. The elements of the IPF, detailing the hierarchical alignment of the AMS are
illustrated in (Attachment 3).
DETAILS
6. The AMS explains current and future asset management practices, condition of
assets and resource requirements. It also illustrates a set of strategic actions,
responsibilities of business units and timelines to achieve advanced asset
management practices in the Shire.

Framework (“NAMAF”) and Asset Management Framework and Guidelines for
Western Australian Local Governments.
