What is your Asset Management Plan?
After nearly ten years in and around Municipal Government, I understand the pressures you are face. Staff turnover, increasing administrative and operational demands, and reduced outside funding are just some of the significant pressures municipalities are facing. Unfortunately, the forecast isn’t so rosy either. The aging workforce, deteriorating infrastructure, and will only make things more challenging in the years to come. This is why it is more important than ever to get the most value out of each and every dollar spent by developing and implementing an Asset Management Plan.
