More Than Maintenance: Unlocking Strategic Value in Public Infrastructure
Maintenance is often seen as a cost to be managed, but in the public works and local government context, it is a strategic lever for delivering long-term community value. Steve’s presentation explores how well-planned, data-informed maintenance and reliability practices are fundamental to achieving asset performance, managing life cycle costs, and controlling risk.
Drawing on asset management principles and real-world examples, Steve will examine how reframing maintenance as an enabler—not an expense—can improve service outcomes, justify investment, and strengthen long-term sustainability. Attendees will gain insight into how maintenance connects with broader infrastructure strategy, and how leadership, planning, and culture shape its success.
