Introduction

BackgroundThe City of Tea Tree Gully maintains a large network of physical assets within the local government area.

As custodian of these community assets, Council acknowledges that there will be increased pressure in the future to provide assets at desired levels of service. Periods of growth will put pressure on future funding as the urban environment continues to age, and demand for maintenance, repair and upkeep increases.

Council currently manages $1.4 billion of assets and this Asset Management Strategy recognises that it is important that assets are provided and maintained at a satisfactory level, commensurate with community expectations and Council income.

The need for this strategy was identified as a result of our Managing Assets through Capability and Knowledge (MACK) project. This project reviewed the City of Tea Tree Gully’s asset management processes as part of Council’s objective to adopt contemporary “best practice” asset management.

This strategy provides a clear course of action for improving asset management capability at the City of Tea Tree Gully and supports Council’s Strategic Plan and Long-Term Financial Plan.

The development of this Asset Management Strategy (AM Strategy) has been guided by the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia (IPWEA) National Asset Management Strategy (NAMS) template. The NAMS model includes a maturity assessment to determine an organisation’s level of “maturity” with regard to its asset management practices.

The assessment is designed around the asset management journey of a council and assesses where a council is on the asset management maturity curve. The results of the City of Tea Tree Gully’s asset management maturity assessment are documented in Appendix 1.

What is asset management?Asset management is a process of logic used to guide the planning, acquisition, operation, maintenance, renewal and disposal of assets. Its objective is to maximise asset service delivery potential and manage related risks and costs over the entire life of the asset. In simplest terms, asset management is about how assets are “looked after”, both on a day-to-day basis (such as maintenance and operations) and in the medium-to-long term.

A robust Asset Management Strategy will ensure that Council’s assets are capable of providing services of an agreed quality, in a sustainable manner, for present and future communities.

The figure below illustrates the typical life cycle of an asset and associated asset management functions, from planning for the need to create an asset, through to its ultimate disposal, including audit and review of the performance of that asset.

Fig 1 – Asset life cycle

Legislative contextThe South Australian Local Government Act 1999 and its regulations require each council to have an infrastructure and asset management plan covering the management of infrastructure and other major assets of the Council for a period of at least ten years. This Asset Management Strategy, as well as Council’s existing individual asset management plans for the various asset classes, fulfils this legislative requirement.

Strategic contextThis Asset Management Strategy is aligned to Council’s Corporate Planning Framework.

The strategy is driven by the priorities of Council’s Strategic Plan and is complementary to Council’s Long-Term Financial Plan.

Fig 2 – Alignment to Council’s Corporate Planning Framework

Strategic Plan 2020

Council’s Strategic Plan expresses the vision aspirations and objectives that we propose to strive towards over the medium-to-long term. The Strategic Plan 2020 focuses on promoting the wellbeing of our community; that is, to ensure we have a healthy community that enjoys a quality lifestyle.

The Strategic Plan 2020 nominates key areas of organisational excellence that will ensure strong performance in all the management plans, including the ways in which we manage Council’s assets.

Key areas:

1. People and leadership – our staff at all levels are engaged and make meaningful contributions.

2. Customer and community relations – we value and proactively foster good customer relationships.

3. Governance – we define roles, powers and responsibilities within the organisation, with the aim of modelling best practice in local government.

4. Finance and systems – we are financially sustainable and have appropriate systems in place to be able to perform effectively.

5. Continuous improvement – we constantly look for opportunities to improve through incremental changes and an openness to new ways of doing things.

3

Long-Term Financial Plan 2016–2026

Council’s Long-Term Financial Plan (LTFP) expresses the financial basis for the activities that Council proposes to undertake over the medium-to-long-term. The plan has four guiding principles, and these are all relevant to asset management:

1. Maintain existing assets at the current service levels.

2. Continue to review assets with proceeds being reinvested into the City and the community.

3. Maintain debt within the targeted range of 25%–35% over the term of the LTFP.

4. Keep tight constraint on operating expenditure.

5. Ensure that the capital works program retains a level of funding for new works (e.g. new footpaths) and allows for the development of a new works depot.

Individual asset management plans for asset classes

For each “asset class” (see “Assets” section), it is intended that Council develop individual asset management plans which will address, more specifically, the management requirements for the different asset classes. Currently, six individual asset management plans exist, some of which address “asset types” rather than asset classes. These will be reviewed as part of this strategy and new plans will be scheduled for development (or consolidation), if required.

Council policies

Council has four policies which relate directly to asset management practices:

• Asset Management Policy: This policy establishes a set of guidelines for the management of Council’s assets and assists Council to implement consistent asset management processes.

• Asset Capitalisation Policy: This policy provides guidance, clarity and consistency regarding the treatment of capital expenditure. It assists Council to ensure there is a distinction made between expenditure on long-lived assets and expenditure on goods and services for immediate consumption.

• Asset Revaluation Policy: This policy provides a framework for the revaluation of Council’s non-current assets and ensures that revaluations are made with sufficient regularity to ensure that the carrying amount of an asset does not differ materially from that which would be determined using “fair value” as at Council’s financial reporting date.

• Sale or Disposal of Assets and Land Policy: This policy establishes a framework of broad principles relating to the sale or disposal of assets and land.

Aim

The aim of this Asset Management Strategy is to determine Council’s asset classes and types and formulate a set of strategic priorities so that Council can improve its asset management practices.

This strategy, and subsequent individual asset management plans for asset classes, will provide Council with a framework to assist with both short- and long-term service delivery planning.

Key stakeholders

In addition to internal staff, key external stakeholders identified for the successful implementation of this strategy include community-based groups (e.g. sporting bodies, residents’ associations, business groups, etc.), management committees, Council lessees, State Government, regional associations, neighbouring councils, developers and contractors.

Community engagement

Annual Community SurveyCouncil has conducted a community survey on an annual basis since 2001. The survey is a general satisfaction measure that Council uses to better understand how the community views its performance and service delivery. The survey is conducted as a series of computer-assisted telephone interviews (CATI) with randomly selected residents invited to participate via telephone.

In addition to questions about various Council services, participants are asked about their level of satisfaction with the condition/maintenance of selected Council assets and are asked to rank their satisfaction on a 5-point scale from “very dissatisfied” to “very satisfied”. The following assets are included:

• Local roads

• Main roads

• Footpaths

• Verges

• Parks, reserves and playing fields

• Playgrounds

• Street trees

• Recreation centres

• Waterworld

Although participants are not asked to respond to questions on the full range of Council assets, the Community Survey nevertheless provides a broad overview of community satisfaction with Council’s asset management processes and also indicates the level of service the community expects. A summary of the responses from the 2016 Community Survey relating to the above assets is shown below.

5

Fig 3 – Summary of satisfaction levels from the City of Tea Tree Gully 2016 Community Survey

These results show that there is currently a generally high level of community satisfaction with playgrounds, recreations centres, Waterworld, library services and parks, reserves and playing fields; a mixed level of satisfaction with local roads and main roads; and a middle to somewhat low level of satisfaction with footpaths, verges and street trees.

Demographic forecasts

PopulationDemographic changes can affect future asset demand and, correspondingly, Council’s ability to continue to provide and maintain assets to an appropriate level of community satisfaction. At 30 June 2014, the estimated resident population of the City of Tea Tree Gully was 98,575, a slight increase (+218 residents) from the year before.

Historically, the City’s population has changed significantly since the early 1990s. There was a slight population boom between 1991 and 2001 and the population then declined slightly through the 2000s and early 2010s, largely driven by the departure of young people and an ageing population. Population projections show the City’s population is likely to increase slightly up to 2036 to approximately 102,730, with an annual population increase of less than 1%. Past and future population change is shown in the chart below.

Fig 4 – City of Tea Tree Gully historical population change 1991–2014, and population forecasts 2015–20361

Age profileThe “age profile” of the City provides insight into the level of demand for age-based assets, such as playgrounds, accessible footpaths and sporting facilities. It is an indicator of the City’s residential role and function and how it is likely to change in the future.

At the 2011 Census of Population and Housing, the City had a large number of residents in their 40s, 50s and 60s, corresponding with a large number of teenagers and young adults in their 20s. There were fewer young workers in their 30s and a lower number of young children or residents in the older-aged groups (70+ years). Compared to the Adelaide metropolitan average, the City of Tea Tree Gully had a slightly older population, with a median age of 40 (compared to 39 for Adelaide and 37 for Australia).

Historically, the City’s age structure has changed from predominantly young families in the 1990s to “empty nesters” and retirees in the early 2010s. Forecasts for the City suggest that there will likely be a significant decrease in the proportion of working-aged residents and a substantial increase in residents of retirement age. Corresponding with the general ageing of South Australia’s population, it is expected that the City will be home to a significantly older population in the future. Past and future age profiles for the City are shown in the charts below.

Household structureHousehold structure is an important demographic indicator, revealing the City’s residential profile, nature and history. Household structure provides insight into the level of demand for assets, as many are related to age and household types.

At the 2011 Census of Population and Housing, the average household size was 2.6 and the dominant household type was couples with children (34%). Almost two-thirds of the City’s residents were living in “couple” households and, of these, slightly more than half were living with children. However, over the past 15 years, the number and proportion of couples with children has decreased, and there has been a corresponding increase in couples without children, one-parent families and lone person households.

Looking to the future, forecasts suggest that the City will experience a substantial increase in lone person households which will account for almost one-quarter of all households by 2036. Correspondingly, it is likely that couple households with children will continue to decrease. A comparison of household types is shown in the chart below.

Assets

Asset categorisationThe Asset Management Strategy is designed to take into consideration all of Council’s assets. Assets can be described as the physical objects maintained by Council to support the community’s social and economic activities. Assets provide the foundation on which the community carries out its everyday activities and they contribute towards the overall quality of life for residents.

Council manages a broad range of assets that have been grouped into seven classes. These consist of different asset types and sub-types. the challenge for asset management is to understand the manner in which Council’s assets perform over time and whether they can be maintained in a “fit for purpose” condition. The main asset classes and types are shown below and the full list, including asset and sub-asset types, is shown in Appendix 2.

Asset value

All City of Tea Tree Gully assets included in this Asset Management Strategy are audited every three years under an inspection regime and captured in Council’s electronic mapping system (GIS). The total value of the asset portfolio is approximately $1.4 billion. The financial status of Council’s assets is shown in the table and chart below.

Fig 9 – Replacement value of Council assets (2014–2015)

Asset conditionBy understanding the condition of Council’s assets and the various types of distresses that affect them, Council can better plan asset management to the level of service the community expects.

Understanding asset condition in the context of affordability and the provision of future intergenerational benefits, also minimises the risk of asset failure. Council acknowledges that the consequences of asset failure(s) will result in loss of service delivery and could also lead to legal liability if Council is found to have acted unreasonably in the management of its assets.

Council recognises that further work is required to fully and more accurately define the condition of assets, particularly with regard to the collection and maintenance of asset data; this will be a priority project of this AM Strategy.

10

Whole-of-life costsWhole-of-life costs (or life cycle costs) are the average costs that are required to sustain service levels over the longest asset life. Whole-of-life costs include operating and maintenance expenditure and asset consumption (depreciation expense). The estimated whole-of-life costs for the asset classes covered in this AM Strategy are shown in the table below.

These are based on 2014–2015 costings.

Whole-of-life costs can be compared to whole-of-life expenditure to give an indicator of sustainability in service provision. Whole-of-life expenditure includes operating, maintenance and capital renewal expenditure in the previous year, or preferably averaged over the past three years. Whole-of-life expenditure will vary depending on the timing of asset renewals. The estimated whole-of-life expenditures for the asset classes covered in this AM Strategy are shown in the table below. These are based on 2014–2015 costings.

Identified issuesMany of Council’s assets were first constructed at the same time that the City’s suburbs were established. Many of these assets are already within the latter half of their expected life and without intervention their physical condition will deteriorate in the coming years.

At the same time, demographic change is challenging the capacity of existing assets to meet the increasing demands of the environment in which they are located. The community’s expectations too are increasing, which affects the ability of existing purpose-built assets to meet the changing needs of future residents. In addition, Council has also received a number of “gifted” assets from developers, which attract ongoing operational and maintenance costs over their life.

The following table provides a general assessment of the issues that Council is currently experiencing and will need to address in this AM Strategy.

Issue type IssueStrategic issues Current levels of budget funding may not be sufficient to maintain

existing ageing assets.Future maintenance needs are not always taken into account for new infrastructure assets.“Gifted” assets from developers (developer contributions) are not necessarily based on sound asset management planning.

Community issues Community expectations of asset condition/provision are often not commensurate with available funding.Whole-of-life cost modelling is often not being taken into account when new assets are commissioned.

Operational issues The present corporate Asset Register is inadequate for asset monitoring and planning.A significant amount of asset data (including maintenance and condition data) is missing or not up-to-date in the corporate Asset Register.Field staff are not trained in appropriate data capture techniques and software/hardware usage.

Vision, focus areas and strategic priorities

VisionThis Asset Management Strategy will provide Council with a set of strategic priorities to facilitate better asset management practices into the future. The strategy’s vision is a confident statement of direction which was developed following extensive internal consultation and is guided by the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia (IPWEA) National Asset Management Strategy (NAMS) model.

“To ensure that Council’s assets are managed in a sustainable way to meet the service needs of present and future customers.”

StructureBased on an analysis of the desired outcomes of this AM Strategy, the following focus areas have been determined:

1. Knowledge and data management

2. Skills and processes

3. Evaluation and reporting

For each of these focus areas, a series of priorities have been developed to facilitate the strategy’s desired outcomes. The structure of this strategy is shown below.

Fig 14 – Asset Management Strategy structure

14

Strategic prioritiesFocus area 1 – Knowledge and data management

Strategic priority Timeframe

1.1 Facilitate the implementation of a new corporate database system capable of storing comprehensive information about each asset class, type and sub-type.

1.2 Collect and/or audit existing asset data to ensure complete baseline datasets are available for each asset class, type and sub-type.

1.3 Ensure all relevant and available asset data is available in the Asset Management Information System (AIMS), with field data collection for mapping of assets underway.

1.4 Provide mobile support and training for field workers to update and maintain asset data ‘on the ground’ in real time.

Desired outcomes (2025)

• Accurate and comprehensive data about all asset classes, types and sub-types are stored on a centralised corporate asset database and mapped through a geographic information system (GIS).

• Asset data are monitored and kept up to date by staff in the field and ‘on the ground’.

• Staff are able to access asset data and be confident that datasets are correct and complete.

Strategic priority Timeframe

3.1 As baseline datasets become available, set agreed levels of services for each asset class or type (or sub-type, where appropriate), which take into account community needs and expectations.

3.2 As baseline datasets become available, assist relevant staff with accessing whole-of-life assets data to inform budgetary planning.

3.3 Assess Council’s asset management practices against the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia (IPWEA) National Asset Management Strategy (NAMS) maturity assessment tool as a “health check” to assess Council’s asset management “maturity”.

1.4 Report annually to Elected Members on the progress of actions taken to address the vision and focus areas of this AM Strategy.

Desired outcomes (2025)

• Appropriate levels of service are established for asset classes and types (and sub-types, where appropriate), that reflect community needs and expectations.

• Budgetary planning takes into consideration good asset management principles, including whole-of-life costs.

• Council’s asset management practices mature over time and become ‘best practice’.

• Progress towards the vision of this AM Strategy is tracked and reported on.

Conclusion

ImplementationThis AM Strategy provides strategic priorities under three key focus areas to improve Council’s asset management practices during the 10-year life of the strategy. Responsibility for implementing these strategic priorities lies with the Manager, Strategic Assets, whose role is to ensure that relevant and timely actions, projects and/or tasks form part of the annual business planning process for all business units identified.

Monitoring and reportingIn addition to ensuring this strategy is implemented, the Manager, Strategic Assets is responsible for monitoring actions taken by the organisation to address the vision and strategic priorities of this strategy. As per action 3.4, the manager will provide an annual status report to Elected Members describing the organisation’s progress.

ReviewIt is recognised that this AM Strategy must be a dynamic document reflecting and responding to changes over time. A full review of this strategy will take place at least every four years or following local government elections or any review to Council’s Strategic Plan.

Notwithstanding, a mini-review or full review of this strategy is encouraged at any time within its 10-year time frame if any budgetary processes, technological advancements or other circumstances justify this.

Appendix 1 – Maturity assessment

The development of this AM Strategy has been guided by the Institute of Public Works Engineering Australasia (IPWEA) National Asset Management Strategy (NAMS) template.

The NAMS model includes a maturity assessment tool to determine a council’s level of “maturity” with regard to its asset management practices. The tool is linked to the Local Government Planning Ministers’ Council (LGPMC) Financial Sustainability Framework and the model forms a nationally–consistent evaluation of where a council is on the asset management maturity curve.

The maturity assessment tool analyses a series of questions on a four–point scale (“not started”, “partially complete”, “well progressed” and “complete”). These questions relate to 11 core elements identified by the NAMS model, including:

1. Strategic longer-term plan

2. Budget

3. Annual report

4. Asset management policy

5. Asset management strategy

6. Asset management plans

7. Governance and management

8. Defining levels of service

9. Data and systems

10. Skills and processes

11. Evaluation

The results of Council’s most recent maturity assessment (August 2013) are shown in the chart below and compared to the NAMS targets for “core” asset management and “advanced” asset management. The full maturity assessment report is shown overleaf.
