SUMMARY:Melbourne - Local Government Asset Planning - Getting the Most From Community Consultation
DESCRIPTION:The Australian Local Government Act 2020 requires local government authorities to undertake a number of asset management responsibilities as part of their asset planning cycles. \nOne of these responsibilities is deliberative community engagement\, which is designed to ensure the wants and needs of the local community are adequately reflected in local government financial\, asset\, and strategic plans. \nDeliberative engagement presents both a challenge and a value proposition to local government authorities — from the perspectives of efficiency and effectiveness\, as well as the opportunity to capture valuable insights and context. \nCindy Plowman from Conversation Co actively supports local government authorities in navigating and maximising value through the deliberative engagement process. Cindy has a wealth of experience working with community groups and will share her knowledge and insights on how to leverage community input to produce meaningful impact for all parties. \n  \nClick here to register

SUMMARY:Melbourne - Navigating Financial Constraints: The Evolution of AMAF in the Victorian Government
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an insightful session with guest speaker Nicholas Phillips\, as we explore the evolving landscape of the Asset Management Accountability Framework (AMAF) within the Victorian Government. Nearly a decade since its inception\, AMAF remains a key policy guiding asset management practices across government agencies. However\, in the face of tight financial constraints\, agencies are being forced to rethink their approach – balancing compliance\, service outcomes\, and operational efficiency with reduced funding. \n\n\nThis session will delve into how government agencies are adapting to funding challenges while maintaining their commitment to AMAF. We’ll compare the framework’s early vision with today’s reality and engage in a discussion on the current perceptions of government support. The interactive format of this in-person event will encourage audience participation\, including a live poll to capture industry sentiment. Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights into how AMAF continues to shape asset management in Victoria amid shifting financial landscapes. \n\nClick here to register\n  \nAbout the speaker: \nNicholas Phillips is the Executive Director and Principal Consultant of MACE Consulting (Aust) Pty Ltd specialising in Asset Management\, Lifecycle Cost and Performance Analysis\, and Reliability and Maintainability Analysis. His career has centred on the application of asset management principles and processes that deliver service focussed outcomes for asset intensive operations in private and public sectors. \nNicholas has held increasingly senior positions over his professional career\, carrying out pioneering work in the introduction of asset management systems and processes.\nNicholas has assisted organisations to align stakeholder demands to service delivery outcomes by understanding the inter-dependencies between business functions across the asset portfolio entire lifecycle. \nIn recent years\, Nicholas has: \n\ndeveloped\, implemented\, and monitored improvement in the management system for asset management in public sector agencies.\ndelivered reliability\, availability and maintainability analysis and reports for infrastructure projects.\ndelivered asset management fundamentals training for the Asset Management Council.\nmaintained the operation of MACE Consulting.\n\nNicholas’s career is highlighted by a continuous connection to service delivery assets\, where he has managed rollingstock maintenance\, rail infrastructure asset strategy and engineering\, implemented the Victorian public sector Asset Management Accountability Framework and evaluated/monitored compliance (and maturity).

From pioneering data collection methodologies to integrating environmental insights into asset management\, these presentations promise to deliver valuable perspectives and strategies for addressing contemporary challenges in infrastructure planning and climate resilience. Join us to explore the synergies between technology\, data\, and environmental foresight in shaping the future of New Zealand’s transport and urban landscapes. \nClick here to register\n  \nAgenda:\n\n\n5.00pm: Arrival and registration\n5.10pm: Event opening by AMCouncil NZ Chapter\n5.15pm: Preparing for the worst: Asset Management with Environmental Insights\, by Jason Blac\, Senior Consultant – Strategic Advisory (Digital)\, WSP; and Dr Rowan Dixon\, Associate Director – Strategic Advisory\, WSP\n5.50pm: Cracking the Transport System: A National Future-Ready Approach to Consistent Condition Data Collection\, by Shaun Lion-Cachet\, Principal Consultant\, Invise Ltd\n6.25pm: AMCouncil NZ Chapter AGM\n\n\nAbout the presentations and speakers:\nPresentation 1: Preparing for the worst: Asset Management with Environmental Insights\n\nOur journey supporting Hastings District Council (HDC) began back in 2019 when we collaborated with them to digitise the Toitoi Arts and Events Centre using laser scanning\, 3D modelling\, and linking key asset information. This project has expanded over the years to include the adjacent Toitoi Municipal Building\, culminating in a comprehensive Asset Information Model (AIM) of both buildings. \nA key development has been the integration of climate change data within the asset information model to enhance building resilience. This initiative demonstrates the potential of digital technologies\, and particularly Asset Information Models\, in fostering climate-resilient urban infrastructure. \nKey Points: \n\nObjective: To illustrate the integration process and benefits of including digital climate change data into an asset information model.\nMethodology: Overview of the process\, how we discussed strategic climate priorities and challenges for HDC\, how these informed the next steps\, and how this was used to inform the Asset Information Model.\nChallenges and Solutions: Discussion on merging climate data with the existing asset information model and how we navigated them.\nOutcomes and Benefits: Adding value to enhance asset resilience\, improve risk assessment\, and support informed decision-making for climate adaptation strategies through digitisation.\n\nThis presentation aims to showcase the project’s approach to leveraging an existing asset information model to assist in understanding and mitigating the impacts of climate change on critical infrastructure. \nJason Blac\, Senior Consultant – Strategic Advisory (Digital)\, WSP \nWith over a decade of experience in Project Management and Digital Advisory from the UK and the burgeoning digital sector in New Zealand\, Jason harbours a deep passion for supporting and guiding clients on their transformation journeys.
