Many utilities are trying to organize their asset management program; however, some utilities are puzzled on how to start the program.  Where do we start?  What does a utility want to record and track?  Is a computerized maintenance system needed?  What about GIS for the Collection System?  How do we budget money for asset management?  These are just some of the questions that arise when talking about Asset Management.

Social media is changing the world; this is not hyperbole. If you doubt this, just ask the Iranian government about Twitter or the Boston Globe about eBay and Craigslist. As the tools and technologies that facilitate communicating, sharing, and coordinating become increasingly boring and (by and large) free, they are empowering groups to organize themselves and challenging the value propositions of long standing institutions. And if you think this doesn’t or won’t affect you as a municipality, private operations company, equipment supplier, trade organization, engineering firm, software developer, or government regulator you are wrong.
