GGlossary

Asset management - an integrated and continuous process of making capital and operational decisions about assets that are informed by cost, risk, and service levels. Sustainable service delivery is the goal of asset management.

Level of service – the defined quality for a particular activity or service area against which performance can be measured. Level of service usually relates to quality, quantity, reliability, responsiveness, environmental acceptability, and cost. Lifecycle costs – the total cost of an asset over its service life, including the initial capital cost as well as the cost of ongoing operations and maintenance, renewal, replacement, and disposal.

Sustainable service delivery – an approach to delivering services that ensures that services are provided to the community today in a way that:

is fiscally, environmentally, and socially responsible; is adaptive to changing circumstances and future conditions; and does not compromise the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Executive Summary

What is Asset Management and Why Is It Important?

Infrastructure assets such as roads and sidewalks, water, drainage, and sewer infrastructure, parks and public buildings deliver important services to communities. A key challenge facing local governments throughout British Columbia is the long-term sustainability of these services. This calls for local governments to manage their assets in a way that supports sustainable service delivery.

Asset management is an integrated and continuous process of making capital and operational decisions about assets that are informed by cost, risk, and service levels. Sustainable service delivery is the goal of asset management. Sustainable service delivery is the goal of asset management.

The City’s Asset Management Strategy and Roadmap

The City developed this Asset Management Strategy and Roadmap as part of its efforts to improve in asset management, in support of sustainable service delivery. The Strategy directly aligns with the City’s Asset Management Policy. The purpose of the Strategy is to outline strategic improvements for how the City:

effectively aligns corporate plans, strategies, and operations; makes informed and transparent decisions about asset management, including the long-term

planning, financing, operation, maintenance, upgrade, renewal, replacement, and disposal of capital infrastructure assets;

continuously improves its asset management processes and practices; builds resiliency to the impacts of climate change through asset management decisions; and engages stakeholders in asset management.

The Strategy describes where the City is currently at in terms of the assets it owns, the City’s maturity in asset management processes and practices, where the City wants to be, and improvement strategies to get there. The Roadmap details the prioritized actions that the City will take to implement the improvement strategies, as well as the timeline over which the actions should be carried out. State of the City’s Assets

Figures 1 and 2 one the following pages show why it is so important to have a strategy in place for effectively managing the City’s assets.

FFigure ES-1 Asset Age Profile

As shown in Figure ES-1, many of the City’s assets were built in the 1970s and will need to be strategically replaced while also supporting the City in meeting its service sustainability and climate change adaptation and mitigation goals.

As shown in Figure ES-2, the City’s assets are valued at almost $3 billion in terms of replacement cost.

Asset Management Practices and Strategic Outlook

As part of the process to develop the Strategy and Roadmap, an assessment was conducted of current asset management processes and practices. Given the assets the City owns, the state of the City’s assets, and the City’s current maturity levels in asset management, the City’s strategic outlook is overall positive. Current funding levels are likely insufficient to achieve financial sustainability over the long term. However, the City is investing in improvements in asset management processes and practices and with further improvements, including increased funding levels, the City will move towards service sustainability.

Asset Management Objectives and Improvement Strategies

Based on the strategic outlook, eight key objectives for the City’s asset management processes and practices were identified. These are also the basis of the City’s Asset Management Policy. Improvement strategies to make progress towards these objectives are summarized in Table ES-1.

1.1 The City’s Vision as a Sustainable City

The City of Prince George, together with the community, established a vision for the future in its 2010 Integrated Community Sustainability Plan, myPG:

As BC’s northern capital, Prince George is a model for sustainable Canadian cities. The local environment is healthy, supporting a robust economy and an enviable quality of life for residents. Everyone has housing they can afford, good food on the table, and a strong, supportive network of friends and co-workers. Built on regional assets, the economy is strong and stable. A vibrant downtown, great community, affordable lifestyle, and spectacular natural setting are Prince George’s greatest strengths.

1.2 Challenges to Realizing this Vision

A key challenge facing the City, and indeed local governments across Canada, is the long-term sustainability of services that rely on infrastructure assets, such as roads and sidewalks; water, drainage, and sewer infrastructure; parks and public buildings. Some of the challenges related to sustainable service delivery include:

Ageing assets need renewal and replacement in order to sustain service levels, and the condition and longevity of assets can be difficult to determine.

Financing needs for the operation, maintenance, replacement, and renewal of assets can be large, requiring planning for large peaks and troughs in expenditure for renewing and replacing such assets.

As communities grow and land use changes, the demand for new and improved services grows, which adds to the financing complexity.

Impacts from climate change, such as increased flooding, forest fires, water shortages, and increased population growth present risks to service and financial sustainability.

The construction, operation, maintenance, replacement, and renewal of assets contributes to greenhouse gas emissions that in turn contribute to climate change.

1.3 Asset Management as a Pathway to Sustainability

The challenges described above call for the City to manage its assets in a comprehensive and systematic way that supports ssustainable service delivery, meaning that services are provided to the community today in a way that:

is fiscally, environmentally, and socially responsible; is adaptive to changing circumstances and future conditions, including changes in climate; and does not compromise the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Asset management is an integrated and continuous process of making capital and operational decisions about assets that are informed by cost, risk, and service levels.

Sustainable service delivery is the goal of asset management

11.4 Purpose of the Asset Management Strategy and Roadmap

The Asset Management Strategy and Roadmap supports the City in achieving its 2040 vision to be a model for sustainable Canadian cities through improvements in asset management processes and practices. The Strategy and Roadmap outline strategic improvements for how the City:

effectively aligns corporate plans, strategies, and operations; makes informed and transparent decisions about asset management, including the long-term

planning, financing, operation, maintenance, upgrade, renewal, replacement, and disposal of capital infrastructure assets;

continuously improves its asset management processes and practices; builds resiliency to the impacts of climate change through asset management decisions; and engages stakeholders in asset management.

The Strategy describes where the City is currently at in terms of the assets it owns, the City’s maturity in asset management processes and practices, where the City wants to be, and strategies to get there. The RRoadmap details the prioritized actions that the City will take to implement the strategies, as well as the timeline over which the actions should be carried out and the resources required to do so.

1.5 Using the Asset Management Strategy and Roadmap

The Strategy and Roadmap is a tool for both City staff and Council. Staff will use the Strategy and Roadmap to guide operations, annual work planning, and annual budgeting. Council will use the Strategy and Roadmap to inform their decisions about the allocation of resources towards priorities for improvements in asset management.

22.1 The City’s Asset Management Framework

The City’s asset management framework is shown in Figure 1 below.

Figure 1 Asset Management Framework

None of these components is static – each is a “living” tool or system aimed at supporting the City in providing sustainable service delivery. The intent is that each component is developed and then reviewed on a regular basis so that all components are increasingly more integrated and relevant to the City.

With that said, the framework shown above represents a desired ‘end state’ in terms of how the various components of the framework fit together and inform one another. Each is currently at various stages of maturity, and the 5-Year Asset Management Roadmap describes strategies and actions to progressively build out the framework.

2.2 Asset Management Planning Process

Asset Management for Sustainable Service Delivery: A BC Framework establishes a high-level, systematic approach that supports local governments in moving toward service, asset, and financial sustainability through an asset management process. This process is what is used by the City, and it is illustrated in Figure 2.

The preceding figures and tables show why it is important to have a strategy for effectively managing the City’s assets. They are valued at almost $3 billion in terms of replacement cost, and many of the City’s assets were built in the 1970s and will need to be strategically replaced while also supporting the City in meeting its service sustainability and climate change adaptation and mitigation goals.

33.4 Maturity of Asset Management Processes and Practices

The current maturity of the City’s asset management practices and competencies was assessed to identify strengths, challenges, and opportunities for improvements. The AssetSMART 2.0 assessment tool was used as a framework for assessing the City’s maturity in asset management as it aligns with the BC Framework. The core elements of asset management form the AssetSMART assessment categories and they include:

ASSETS INFORMATION FINANCES PEOPLE

The assessment was conducted by interviewing 25 members of administration (staff, managers, and senior leadership), and 4 members of Council. The assessment process and findings were documented in detail in the Asset Management Current-State Assessment (Urban Systems Ltd., 2018). A summary of the findings of the City’s current maturity is provided below.

UNDERSTANDING OF AASSETS

Overall, the City’s understanding of its assets is quite strong, with some variability between asset classes. The City has been unable to complete or maintain its inventory largely due to high standards for accuracy and precision of data that are not necessarily reflective of the intended use of the data. The City will benefit from developing data standards that reflect the intended use of the data, and from defining roles, responsibilities, and standard operating procedures for data collection and management.

INFORMATION TO SUPPORT DECISIONS

Overall, the City has a lot of information available to support the definition of condition, consequence, and risk; to inform definitions of service levels; to provide strategic direction on decision-making; and to track performance. The City’s challenge is in bringing this information together to make decisions. The City relies heavily on tools to support decisions and may benefit from bringing people together to bridge the gaps that exist in and between some tools. The City will benefit from leveraging its existing information, risk frameworks, and strategic direction to support decision-making, versus “starting from scratch”. The City will also benefit from assessing the impacts of climate change on assets and using this to inform capital and operating decisions.

City of Prince George Asset Management Strategy and Roadmap Page | 13

SSUSTAINABILITY OF FINANCES

The City does not currently fully recover the cost of providing services. Financial resources are not necessarily being applied to where they are needed most and there is pressure on the general fund. This leads to some services being chronically under-funded. The City will benefit from a comprehensive, consistent, and transparent approach to determining funding needs; communicating these needs to Council; and updating and enforcing policies to help ensure decisions are being made in accordance with best practices.

PPEOPLE CAPACITY AND EFFECTIVENESS

Like many communities, the City is currently doing a lot with limited resources. Staff strive to move towards proactive planning, but are often occupied with immediate pressures. Local conditions mean staff are stretched across different services and need to regularly adapt to new functions. The City will benefit from bringing together people in cross-departmental forums to address servicing issues not readily solved by tools. The City will also benefit from developing and implementing a knowledge retention strategy to capitalize on the deep experience of its seasoned staff and the young talent available.

33.5 Strategic Outlook

Given the assets the City owns, the state of the City’s assets, and the City’s current maturity levels in asset management, the City’s strategic outlook is overall positive. Current funding levels are likely insufficient to achieve financial sustainability over the long term; however, the City is investing in improvements in asset management processes and practices and with further improvements, including increased funding levels, the City will move towards service sustainability.

44.1 The City’s Vision and Goals

The City’s vision for 2040, as expressed in myPG, is to be a mmodel for sustainable Canadian cities.

myPG articulates numerous goals related to this vision. These goals describe where the City wants to be in terms of “Social Development”, “Environment”, “Economic Development”, and “City Government”.

The City’s Asset Management Strategy and Roadmap aims to support the City in achieving all of these goals; however, those that most directly guide the Strategy and Roadmap fall under the category of “City Government” and “Environment” and are listed in Table 3.

Table 3 City Goals that are Supported by Asset Management

Goall Description

Sustainable Infrastructure The City manages the procurement, construction, maintenance, rehabilitation, and replacement of its physical assets considering lifecycle cost, risk, and service level continuity.

Sustainable Fiscal Management

The City will be financially sustainable, with the revenue resources required to support its plans and infrastructure and provide services that citizens and businesses need.

Organizational Excellence The City is a responsive, cost-effective, people-centered service delivery organization that understands customer needs and strives to exceed the expectations of those it serves.

Effective Governance The City works cooperatively with its partners in the government, education, health, and business sectors, and with the Lheidli T’enneh and other First Nation organizations.

Reduce Carbon Emissions and Adapt for Climate Change

Prince George has reduced carbon emissions and dependence on fossil fuels, and is prepared for climate change.

Green City, Green Practices Prince George is a green city with healthy habitat and forests, and a strong environmental consciousness, led by government and local organizations that demonstrate sustainable practices.

4.2 Asset Management Objectives

The City’s Asset Management Policy is a tool that aims to support the City in achieving its vision and goals by establishing objectives for asset management. These objectives provide direction for strategies, actions, and decisions that are implemented at the City so that they are in accordance with asset management best practices.

The City’s asset management objectives include the following:

1. The City demonstrates organizational alignment and commitment to sustainable service delivery

2. Decisions about service delivery are prioritized in a clear, consistent, and transparent way based on trade-offs between level of service, lifecycle cost, and risk.

3. Appropriate information and tools are available, integrated, and used alongside professional judgement to inform decisions.

4. Sufficient financial resources are in place to enable sustainable service delivery and continuous improvement in asset management.

5. Sufficient human resources are in place to enable sustainable service delivery and continuous improvement in asset management.

6. The City’s approach to asset management builds the City’s resiliency to climate change and supports its climate change adaptation and mitigation goals.

7. The City continuously improves in sustainable service delivery, and measures, tracks, and communicates progress.

8. Stakeholders are appropriately engaged in decisions about sustainable service delivery.

The Strategy and Roadmap sets out the path for meeting these objectives through strategic improvements beginning in 2019.
