Resumo(s)
The current paper aims the application of the Portuguese
infrastructure asset management (IAM) methodology
to a case study. The inevitable degradation of urban
water infrastructures creates new challenges forwater utilities
engineers and manager, as they need to decide which
components should be rehabilitated to efficiently match
the public’s demand, while still providing a qualitative
and efficient service that doesn’t compromise the financial
integrity of water utilities.
This methodology is based on a five-step structured sequence
- (i) definition of objectives assessment criteria and
metrics; (ii) diagnosis; (iii) plan production; (iv) plan implementation;
and (v) monitoring and revision – being
structured in three distinct levels of planning and decision
(i.e., strategic, tactical and operational). The IAM methodology
was applied to a sixty-year-old water supply system
(WSS) located in Lisbon’s metropolitan area, Portugal,
mainly focused on steps (i) to (iii) and to the tactical level
of planning. Results obtained are discussed and the main
conclusions are presented.
