Infrastructure Advisory
We provide services in the following areas:
- Maintenance & Capital Program Planning – Maintenance and capital program planning involves assessing assets, prioritizing needs, budgeting, planning, resource allocation, implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. By strategically managing maintenance and capital projects, organizations optimize asset performance, extend lifespan, minimize downtime, and maximize return on investment.
- Infrastructure Strategies & Plans – Infrastructure strategies and plans provide long-term approaches for developing, maintaining, and improving infrastructure systems. They involve assessing current infrastructure, setting goals and priorities, planning investments, engaging stakeholders, ensuring compliance, integrating efforts, and monitoring progress. These plans aim to enhance quality of life, support economic growth, and build sustainable and resilient infrastructure for communities.
- Project Management Processes – Project management processes encompass initiation, planning, execution, monitoring and controlling, and closing phases. They involve defining project objectives, planning tasks, executing plans, monitoring progress, managing changes, and closing out projects. These systematic approaches ensure effective project delivery and successful outcomes.
- Design Reviews – Design reviews are structured evaluations of design concepts, plans, or prototypes involving relevant stakeholders. They assess functionality, feasibility, and adherence to requirements, providing feedback for iterative improvement. Conducted at key milestones, design reviews ensure designs meet quality standards and stakeholder expectations, contributing to project success.
- Renewable Energy Feasibility Studies – Renewable energy feasibility studies evaluate the viability of renewable energy projects by assessing factors such as resource availability, technical feasibility, economic viability, environmental impact, regulatory compliance, and stakeholder engagement. They help stakeholders make informed decisions by providing recommendations on whether to proceed with project implementation based on comprehensive analysis and assessment.
- Carbon Neutral / Net-Zero Studies – Carbon neutral or net-zero studies assess the feasibility and strategies for achieving carbon neutrality or net-zero emissions. They involve baseline assessment of carbon emissions, setting targets, identifying emission reduction strategies, analyzing costs and benefits, considering policy and regulatory factors, engaging stakeholders, and establishing monitoring and reporting mechanisms. These studies provide organizations with a roadmap for transitioning to a low-carbon future, mitigating climate change impacts, and fostering sustainability.

FAQ’s
Your Go-To Resource for Answers
Q1) What does asset management implementation mean?
A1) In simple terms, it is putting the words on paper into action. This is often done through creating asset management awareness with cross-functional teams, building a knowledge repository, developing asset management competencies in key staff, using asset management software, and executing inspection, maintenance, and capital sustainment programs.
Q2) Where do we begin with implementing asset management in our organization?
A2) A variety of questions should be addressed during implementation, such as: What is the current state of assets? What is their level of service and performance? What are the best maintenance strategies? What are the necessary funding strategies to achieve the goals?
Keep in mind that using an asset management approach and asset management tools will help your organization fulfill both current and future requirements in a repeatable and sustainable way. Contact us to book a free consultation with our team to discuss options for your implementation goals.
Q3) How will you train the staff in our organization?
A3) We find that training is most effective when done in-person. We will come to your offices, host in-person workshops with real-life simulations, and provide ongoing support after the training.
Q4) What is included in a capital asset investment program?
A4) Typically, the purpose of a capital program is to identify asset management needs, establish means for longer-term financing, and lay out a schedule for regular maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement works to ensure the asset’s long-term sustainability.
